Re: [xmlvm-users] crash on iphone simulator running my ported application

[Wolfgang K. <wol...@xm...>]

I just set up a test project and tried your code. As Arno pointed out you
need AndroidManifest.xml and cat.png in directory where the makefile is
stored. Additionally note that we currently only support png images
resources.

While trying you sample code I also noticed a small bug in XMLVM for which I
submitted a patch to our SVN. So please update to the HEAD and try again.
