i have no error in my xml file but when i a running on my phone after all phases when it comes to Run Task i have been showing this error
Android resource compilation failed
G:\MyAssingment1\app\src\main\res\layout\activity_main.xml:72: error: not well-formed (invalid token).
G:\MyAssingment1\app\src\main\res\layout\activity_main.xml: error: file failed to compile.
i am unable to resolve this error from which line it is coming.
This error is coming from 72 line no. of your activity_main.xml
which type of error it is ?
because at 72 line the code is
android:text="<–"
Can you share the complete xml file here
