Understanding XML attributes for custom packages

Question

I'm trying to use the drag/drop functionality from this fine project: https://github.com/bauerca/drag-sort-listview/

First, I've added the library using the instructions on GitHub.

Second, I'm trying to use the XML declaration. This is my main.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:dslv="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.mobeta.android.dslv"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <include layout="@layout/header"/>

    <com.mobeta.android.dslv.DragSortListView
        android:id="@+id/list"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:divider="#D9D9D9"
        android:dividerHeight="2dp"
        android:listSelector="@drawable/list_selector"
        dslv:drag_enabled="true"
        dslv:drag_scroll_start="0.33"
        dslv:drag_start_mode="onDown"/>
</LinearLayout>

But, Eclipse is throwing this error: No resource identifier found for attribute 'drag_enabled' in package 'com.mobeta.android.dslv'; similarly for 'drag_scroll_start' and 'drag_start_mode'.

I'd like to understand on a more general level what I'm doing wrong here. And if anyone can give me specific help for using this library, I'd appreciate that as well.

Should work, nevertheless, Try copying this file to your /res/values. – Euchromosome

Have added all the XML attributes listed in the github ? – Wight

Since you are refering the attributes fro your library instead of giving the full path of the library give "res-auto" please see the change

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:dslv="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent"
  android:orientation="vertical" >

<include layout="@layout/header"/>

<com.mobeta.android.dslv.DragSortListView
    android:id="@+id/list"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:divider="#D9D9D9"
    android:dividerHeight="2dp"
    android:listSelector="@drawable/list_selector"
    dslv:drag_enabled="true"
    dslv:drag_scroll_start="0.33"
    dslv:drag_start_mode="onDown"/>
