Android animation does not repeat

Question

I\'m trying to make simple animation that would repeat several times (or infinitely).
It seems that android:repeatCount does not work!
Here is my anim

Answer 1

To get a repeating animation I utilized the animation listener, and called the animation again when it ended. This does a camera reticule focusing like animation with brackets.

Here is the animation layout xml

Here is the java code

 public void startAnimation() {

            View brackets = findViewById(R.id.brackets);
            brackets.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

            Animation anim = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(BuzzFinderActivity.this, R.anim.crosshair_focusing);
            anim.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListener() {

                @Override
                public void onAnimationEnd(Animation arg0) {
                    Animation anim = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(BuzzFinderActivity.this, R.anim.crosshair_focusing);
                    anim.setAnimationListener(this);
                    brackets.startAnimation(anim);

                }

                @Override
                public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation arg0) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                }

                @Override
                public void onAnimationStart(Animation arg0) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                }

            });


            brackets.startAnimation(anim);
}
