Android: R.drawable not showing my image?

Question

In my android 2.2 app, I've added my image to the res/drawable-mdpi folder. However, I cannot seem to access it using R.drawable.. As far as I know, there isn't any additional configuration I need to do - any help?

Answer 1

I figured this out. The issue was that the project was importing android.R instead of using the generated R file - if you encounter this problem, check your imports to make sure the correct package/file is being imported.

Answer 2

You need to use a fully qualified name when importing the generated R file. Check your import statements.

Take the following package statement:

package me.rhys.example;

Then the generated R file can be imported using:

import me.rhys.example.R;
