actionbarsherlockandroidandroid-support-library

I followed the http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html link for implementing ActionBar in Android 2.0

I have followed the following procedures.

i) Create a new Project

ii) Create a libs folder in my project

iii)include android-support-v13.jar & android-support-v7-appcompat.jar files and add them in build path

My Manifiest xml file is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.tgactionbar"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"
        android:targetSdkVersion="16" />

    <application

        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        >
        <activity
            android:name="com.example.tgactionbar.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" 
            android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

i got this error

error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'theme' with value
'@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar').

If you are using eclipse, adding the compatible library it's pretty easy: enter image description here

I hope this resolve your problem. Do a new project from scratch and try this, if doesn't work i will try other things.

Javascript – SwfAddress conflict with SwfObject’s ‘callback’ argument

This was a tough one.

Quick answer: You need to pass empty objects instead of "null" for the flashVars and attributes: (See my corrected demo code here)

swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_2/test6.swf", "myContent1", "300", "120", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", {}, {});
swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_2/test6.swf", "myContent2", "300", "120", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", {}, params, {}, outputStatus);

Full answer: Digging into the SWFAddress source code, they are rewriting the SWFObject embed functionality so they can inject their own. One of the things they have to do to do this is transfer all of the parameters you pass in to their own function. The "null" you were passing for the attributes object was causing an error in the SWFAddress code here:

var _s2e = swfobject.embedSWF;
    swfobject.embedSWF = function() {
    _args = arguments;
    if (typeof _args[8] == UNDEFINED)
        _args[8] = {};
    if (typeof _args[8].id == UNDEFINED)
        _args[8].id = _args[1];  // <-- ERROR here when this parameter (attributes) is null.
        _s2e.apply(this, _args);
        _ref.addId(_args[8].id);
    }

The error caused the whole second embed to fail.
