How to solve it. can anyone help

Answer 1

Using Eclipse on Windows?

1. Open layout file
2. Ctrl+Shift+F (Command+Shift+F in MacOSX)
3. Save the layout file and close it.
4. Delete any .out files the builder might have created.
5. Clean project.

Answer 2

It looks like stupid thing, But It worked for me

1. select all (ctrl+a)
2. cut (ctrl+x )
3. Paste it again (ctrl+v)
4. Save it (ctrl+s)

It really worked for me.

Answer 3

It's easier than other answers:

Ctrl + 1 -> Fix lines

;)

Answer 4

Yesterday, I got this very same error message.

My fix is by simply removing every newline after

/>

So, if you have

<Button
    />


<Button
    />

change it into

<Button
    />
<Button
    />

Might not be the best solution.
