Parse Error : There was a problem parsing this package

I think this error is coming because of the capital package name. So now, i am in very much trouble. I can't change the package name to small letters and with capital letters the code is not working.

So help me guys. what should i do? How can i give un update to my already live application on Google Play which has 'capital letters' in package name?

回答1:

So finally i find solution. Hope it will help others who are facing this issue.

I ran project in Linux OS. In linux os, eclipse doesn't give any error for capitalised package name.

1.) I renamed package name with capital letters

2.) Then I imported appropriate R in java files. (in my case it is AnantApps.Moodlytics.R). (We can replace old R with new one easily by find/replace functionality of eclipse)

And thats it.

Main problem is that you need to have Ubuntu Linux OS for this.

回答2:

Please You should delete your gen folder from your workspace..After that give build project. Now You can run your application..Please try it.

回答3:

Using Android Studio. U must change in manifest file like that

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" />

and Also change In Gradle Script

Gradle Script->build.gradle(Module:app)
defaultConfig {
        applicationId "" >>//Your Package Name
        minSdkVersion 15 >>Here also give minsdkversion which is given in                        manifest file
        targetSdkVersion 21
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
