David, give me a break. The tool should have been instrumented in the 1st place to catch these crashes (SetUnhandledExceptionFilter and MiniDumpWriteDump ring a bell?). > I understand that you can't send your whole project to the bug tracker, but > can you repeat the crash with a simpler program that you could share ? > If this is not possible, what kind of things did you add to reproduce the > crash.

If you've seen the workaround post you've noticed that I did try to change something. Actually first I rolled back to what I had in SVN. It worked. I then tried to figure out how to start adding the new stuff (I've written more than those lines today, and haven't committed) incrementally. And then I decided to first check what would happen if I simply remove the new activity I've added today from the manifest file, -- the rest you can see in the post. However, make the difference -- this is not a bug report in the lines of "aapt.exe crashed". I gave enough (for me at least) information how to get from the crash address to the actual culprit code in aapt.
