how to setup ActionBarSherlock?


I would like to use the library ActionBarSherlock in one of my projects, but I get errors all over the place when I create a project as a library with sources!

I followed the instructions correctly, as shown here for example: Greendroid or ActionbarSherlock - setup

But I get many errors like:

Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found That matches the given name 'android: Theme.Holo.Light' in abs__styles.xml

Solution

  • Check the official usage page and the sample projects that come with the source, using third-party tutorials is not always a good idea. If you still have problems post concrete errors and stack traces. Also consider posting on the project's official Google group, you have a better chance of getting help there.
