Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks!

Those aren’t really warnings. They’re Notes. I’ll look into hiding them. I take it the process does actually work for you?

Yes, it builds. I had some other errors from a more complicated project, and I was trying to pin them down, and that big list was confusing me, so I went to your version just to see what happened. Thanks for the feedback! I’ll ignore the messages for now.

Same here.
I am revisiting Element’s compilers for app developments.
but, i think it is hard to build one by a newbies like me.

yes those are note but i can’t use element’s debugger.
it works great without appcompat settings.

The debugger should be fine. What are you seeing? Only with a specific project? If so can we get that project? What device, and if an emulator, what kind?

@ck Sadly, VS considered this as a fatal error of the build so debugger will not run.

I found same situation at
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=164673

i will update this with detail build messages and source file(nothing special though)

it turns out, it was my bad. i used some style.xml snippets from website but it was invalid.

somehow i misinterpreted the build error because of similar note messages.

Thank you.
