Eclipse will not show 2.3 emulator for android compatibility package code
- by Mark Lasby
I am trying to learn fragments to modernize an app I originally wrote for android 1.5 that uses Date Picker Dialog. I am using the android-support-v4 library. When I run the code in Eclipse Juno 20120614-1722 it only shows android 4.0 emulators and there is a red X beside my Samsung phone running 2.3.5. When I push the package to phone, the code runs.
Here is the code
FragTestActivity.java
package xyz.marklasby.fragtest;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;
import android.app.DatePickerDialog;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.DialogFragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.DatePicker;
public class FragTestActivity extends FragmentActivity {
private Button date;
private Calendar now;
private SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(" EEE MMM dd/yyyy");
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
date = (Button) findViewById(R.id.setdate);
now = Calendar.getInstance();
date.setText(sdf.format(now.getTime()));
date.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
editDate(v);
}
});
}
public void editDate(View v) {
DialogFragment newFragment = DatePickerFragment.newInstance(new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
@Override
public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
now.set(year, monthOfYear, dayOfMonth);
date.setText(sdf.format(now.getTime()));
}
});
newFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "datePicker");
}
}
DatePickerFragment.java
package xyz.marklasby.fragtest;
import java.util.Calendar;
import android.app.DatePickerDialog;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.DialogFragment;
public class DatePickerFragment extends DialogFragment {
static DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener mListener;
public static DatePickerFragment newInstance(DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener listener) {
mListener = listener;
return new DatePickerFragment();
}
@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
int year = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
int month = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
int day = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
return new DatePickerDialog(getActivity(), mListener, year, month, day);
}
}
Manifest.xml
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="xyz.marklasby.fragtest"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk

What am I doing wrong?
