What is this? Android development?

Yes.

Firstly, I think you're expecting something which is not possible - adding a new string in string.xml does not magically link it to a textView in main.xml. You need to select the textView, go to the properties and in the "text" property, enter the name of the string you just defined.

If you're doing the steps right and still think its a bug, please report to Android development Tools project. This does not have anything to do with Eclipse.

Closing as NOT_ECLIPSE.
