Hi All,

Sorry about not providing enough info on my original post.  The environment is XP SP3 running VS2010.  Per recommendation from Ajith.Joseph, I moved my android-sdk to a location without spaces in the path, deleted my test project in VS and rebooted.  I then tried to create a new Android  project in VS.  I gave it a name, accespted the default Build Target Version of Android-16 and got the error, 'Failed to create new android project. Reason: The system cannot file the file specified.  What file might that be? :-)

Here are my Env variables and pertinent part of my path:

ANT_HOME - C:Program Filesapache-ant-1.8.4

JAVA_HOME - C:Program FilesJavajdk1.7.0_07

PATH - C:Program FilesJavajdk1.7.0_07in;C:Program Filesapache-ant-1.8.4in;C:Androidandroid-sdk;C:Androidandroid-sdk ools

The folders pointed to by the path and variables all exist at the specified location.  Do I need to worry about spaces in the path for ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME?  What can I try next? 

Sorry to be so clueless and thanks in advance for all the help,

Doug

Our primary development environment is XP but I will find a Windows 7 machine and get VS2010 installed and give it a try.  In the meantime, can you tell me what is executed when I choose New Android Project from the VS menu?  Does this run an exe or a bat file for the Add-In? The error ('Failed to create new android project. Reason: The system cannot file the file specified.) seems more like a pathing problem than OS issue but will try Windows 7.

Thanks,

Doug

Tom,

I will get the source and see if I can set up to debug it on the XP environment. I am much more comfortable in VS6 than VS2010 but will give it a try.   I am also currently installing VS2010 on a Windows 7 machine and will keep you apprised of my progress on both fronts.

Thanks,

Doug

Tom,

I surrender!  I built a new machine running Windows 7 and installed VS2010 and installed the JDK, Ant, the Android SDK and finally your Add-In.  Set the two environment variables and altered my path per your instructions.  All this I did exactly as I did on my machine (XP SP3).  I am unable to make the Add-In work on Windows 7 either but interestingly, I get a whole new set of errors and symptoms, which even includes an occasional, seemingly random crash of VS2010!  I have the better part of 3 days invested in this and unfortunately, I must move on.  I may look at AndroidStudio again at some point in the future but for now, I must conclude that it is just 'not ready for prime time'.
