Resource.layout.filename Is Returning The Wrong Layout File

I have a MonoDroid application project (let's call it mainApp). This references app.Screen project, which is a MFA library project. Initially, my activities were in the mainApp pro

Solution 1:

This appeared to be a bug in MonoDroid, here is the link to the bug in Xamarin bugzilla

This is caused by the Resource.Designer.cs in the MFA library project has a different ID (int) values than what the main project has in its Resource.Designer.cs file.

I have worked out a workaround for it. In my mainApp I manually call mainApp.Resources.UpdateIdValues(); and that would update the Resources id values in the other MFA library projects

Xamarin said that this bug was resolved in 4.6.4. I have not tested this fix though
