Eclipse Content is not allowed in prolog

Question

I'm having trouble opening my main in my eclipse project. It keeps coming up with:

"content is not allowed in prolog"

I haven't altered my code or anything. I have no idea what has gone wrong, anybody seen this before?

Answer 1

I had the same error and figured it out.

When I tried to create a new string resource, I tried to paste the new resource value on the "Android Resources" screen. To my surprise, the paste operation (using CTRL + V) does not work on that screen, and I tried it several times.

After that I started getting the error. When I switched from the "Android Resources" screen to the raw XML screen of the Strings.xml file, I noticed that all the text that I tried to paste was at the beginning of the file, like this:

Image content description. Image content description.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="app_name">My App</string>
</resources>

And that was causing the error for me.
