A number of students I'm working with have reported that the following code fails to show the alert and breaks:

exports.load = function(args) {
setTimeout(function () {
// Do something really awesome…
// Finished doing something awesome.
// Now let’s navigate.
alert('Hi There!!!');
}, 1000);
};

When I try to launch Lab 1 or Lab 3 to my emulator, I get build failures.

I am using the tools listed in the Documentation for the base installation of NativeScript as of 1/20/2016.

This is the similar for Lab 1 and 3, but the following output is for Lab 3
AAPT out(1700767886) : No Delegate set : lost message:Done

Not sure how to fix?
