There are two: One error is supposedly in activity_mail.axml. Most of the time at line 114 but sometimes at line 117.
Either those lines are blank or they contain perfectly valid axml.
Even if I add lines before 114 (or 117), the error is still at 114 or 117.
It's a Linear Layout, with a table layout followed by 8 table rows with contain EditViews, TextViews and Buttons.
This is axml that (1) hasn't been changed in a while and (2) previous, like earlier today, compiled just fine and ran on my phone just fine.
Additionally, I find these inserted into the axml:
<TextView
android:minWidth="30px"
android:minHeight="30px"
xmlns="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/textView4" />
<TextView
android:minWidth="30px"
android:minHeight="30px"
xmlns="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/textView5" />
<TextView
android:minWidth="30px"
android:minHeight="30px"
xmlns="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/textView6" />
When it occurs, there are 5 or 6 groups of them. Always the same. Always in groups of 3 and the width and height are always 30px.
Today was by far the worst. Each time I rebuild the app, the build fails as these groups are inserted into the axml.
I'm using VS 2019 (Community) Version 16.3.9.
I can't make the axml read only as that (for no reason I can understand) causes the build to fail.
The axml usually renders just fine in VS.
