Android Eclipse Classpath - want to add classpath container path but eclipse won't let me


I had faced the same issue when I imported a sample code downloaded from the internet. I am using android sdk 1.5 with 0.9 ADT plugins. Here is a simpler way to fix the andoid library reference issues

  • Right click on the project which hasissues and select properties
  • Select the appropriate Android build(1.1, 1.5 or 1.5 with google api) andsay ok
  • Again right click on the project andselect "Android Tools > Fix ProjectProperties"
  • Fix the imports once (if required)
  • Refresh the project and you should beready to go without any manualediting


I faced this same problem after importing a project through GIT. The problem was that I didn't have the same target android platform installed, and the build path somehow got corrupted.

The first obvious thing i did was changing the target sdk in the project.properties, but even after cleaning up the project and Android Tools > Fix Project Properties, it didn't help and I was still getting the build error.

My solution after wasting close to 1 hour trying to figure this out?

RESTART ECLIPSE

Everything worked fine after that. Eclipse is pretty fickle. Only through years of experience you'll then understand her well. :)


Had the same problem and it turns out the Android SDK Location was not set which was a really simple fix. Go to Window->Preferences, click on 'Android' on the left hand menu, fill in the location of the Android SDK (e.g. C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk) and click OK. Everything worked fine for me after that.
