[opensuse-conference] Error when run Android Conference App
Hi All, I would like to give my strength to the development of openSUSE conference android app and fix bugs of it. I downloaded the github repo from https://github.com/mbarringer/suseconferenceclient and tried to import it to my Eclipse IDE. But I couldn't import it as an Android project. Therefore I manually created an Android proejct(Android 4.2) in Eclipse and copied libs, src,and res folders and Android Manifest file and configured build path. But then I got lot of errors like below just only in res/values/styles_suseconferences.xml file. Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name '@style/Theme.Sherlock.Light'. Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name '@style/Widget.Sherlock.Light.ActionBar.Solid'. Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name '@style/Widget.Sherlock.Light.ListPopupWindow'.....and more. Therefore I can't build this project. Is there any steps I should follow to build this project? Please guide me to build this project. Then I can contribute to this project asap.

Hi Visitha Baddegama,
I would like to give my strength to the development of openSUSE conference android app and fix bugs of it.
That's awesome and also welcome ;). As you are interested in the development of the application you can find the corresponding task in Trello [1] .
I downloaded the github repo from https://github.com/mbarringer/suseconferenceclient and tried to import it to my Eclipse IDE. But I couldn't import it as an Android project.
The best way to run the application via Eclipse is to : a) Clone the repository [2] b) In Eclipse : File -> Import -> Android -> Existing Android Code into Workspace press "Next" and then "Browse" so as to find the folder where you cloned the repository. After that press "Finish". c) Once the project is imported you cannot run it because you will see errors related with the missing library ("ActionBarSherlock") d) Download and uncompress the tar file found here [3] e) It is a good idea to install (via the Android SDK Manager) the Google API for the Android Version you wish to run the application. f) Import (with the same way as in Step (b) ) the folder called "JakeWharton-ActionBarSherlock-e5c2d1c/library" g) In Eclipse : Go to package explorer , right-click on the folder called "HomeActivity" ->Properties ->Android -> Click the checkbox "Is Library" and then press the button "Add" so as to import the library from the folder. After that Apply the changes. h) Don't forge to create a AVD Machine via the Android Virtual Device Manager so as to run your application ;) k) Go to package explorer , right-click on the folder called "HomeActivity" -> Run as -> Android Application Hope that this mini how-to will help you ;)
Please guide me to build this project. Then I can contribute to this project asap.
If you need more help you can ping on irc
(#opensuse-conference,#opensuse-project) or use Trello.
When you are ready to contribute just let me know so as to add you as
a collaborator in the github repo.
Thanks for your interest ,
Have a lot of fun,
Ilias R.

Hey Llias,
Thank you very much for your well described steps and your commitment
for me. It worked well here. =) Thanks again. The problem was with the
ActionBarSherlock library. I think it will be really useful to add
those steps in a README file so new comers can get into the project
quickly. Now I am ready to contribute. =)
In the trello card, I see 6 tasks under the Checklist and one of them
has been finished. Those are the tasks you guys implementing these
days right? Where I can find out bugs related to this project? Is
there any place where above Checklist described well? Please guide me
to the next step. Looking forward to have a nice time with all of
you..!
Thanks,,
