Android : Glitch In Eclipse SDK - Can't Select Build Target
Jul 13, 2010
I believe I have found a glitch in the Eclipse Android SDK. I use my notebook for Android development and have noticed that when I try to create a new project, the "Build Target" section of the New Android Project dialog is unusable because of the small screen size. My notebook's screen resolution is 1366x768 and you can see what I mean in my screenshot here: http://imagebin.org/105099.
Does anyone have any suggestion on how to go about getting this fixed? Eclipse + Android is impossible to use on my notebook because of this bug. (Because the Build target cannot be set, I cannot progress through the dialog to create the project). I'm limited to developing in Genny and compiling manually for now.

I followed these tutorials to set up a Hello World Android app. But when I create a new java project I can't select a build target. It just says no targets available in the target selection box. I have confirmed that I am not having the UI issue described here (http://blog.rowancrane.com/2009/12/27/eclipse-new-android-project-cant-select-build-type-target), I actually have a message in the box saying there are no targets instead of an empty box. I also am using 1920x1080 res.
I'm guessing that eclipse is just not aware of my Android Targets? I installed them in the android SDK manager and see them listed under installed packages in the Android SDK manager (1.1, 1.6, ..., 2.2)
http://fyi.oreilly.com/2009/02/setting-up-your-android-develo.html
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/hello-world.html
Any suggestions on how I can create the project and get started?

My Android project in Eclipse has a build target of Android 1.5. I am trying to change the "project build target" by Windows --> Preferences --> Android. I select a different Target Name like "Android 2.2". I click Apply and OK. When I go back in the build target is still "Android 1.5".
I am using Eclipse Galileo and have recently upgrade to the latest ADT Plugin and SDK.
This always worked before the upgrade. Why Eclipse is not changing the "project build target"?

This is more of an Eclipse error than an Android or Ant error. My Eclipse project won't build because when it sees the build.xml created from the Android command, it starts looking for the debug and release commands. Well, since they are dynamically generated from the <setup> task, they don't exist. So now Eclipse (Build id: 20100218-1602) locking the project from build/run based on these errors. kay.. so here is the weird part: It worked this morning. In fact it has been working for weeks with the build.xml file sitting there. All I did was edit the build.xml file in Eclipse (changed some constants). Ant thinks everything is peachy.

I installed newst Android, JDK, Jer and eclipse. Than I tryed to build android project. But "build target" show "no target available". I looked at internet, they said I should run "Android SDK and AVD manager", I runed it but get follow message: Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml, reason: No route to host: connect
I read this group's conversation that suggest to use http not https, I tried it but still can not run Available Packages.

I want to set in project properties build target 2.2 (api level 8) In the manifest.xml <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="4"/> is declared. Did anybody tried, if any user (with min. Android 1.5) see application in the market? Could some other problems occur because of different SDK for building and in manifest?!

I'm configuring a new machine for Android development and moving my current project over. I did a fresh install of all the Android tools and SDKs, and under "build targets", the Google APIs' target supports Android 2.2. Of course I need 1.5 as the base build target. My project doesn't build when I select that because the Google Maps stuff from maps.jar isn't there. In fact, after I did my full install I can't find maps.jar anywhere on my new machine. Is this jar file still required for Google Maps integration, or is it history? I'm using Eclipse 3.5. I guess I'd presume there would be a "google apis" for Android 1.5 build target. I'm thinking my install must be hosed; but maybe it's my understanding.. :)

I currently have an Android project in Eclipse.
I created it with a target build of 1.5 (sdk 3).
Now I want to change it so that it has a minSdk of 3 and targetSdk of 8.
To do this I see that I must build against the newest SDK (2.2)
To do this in Eclipse I right click on my project, go to properties, click on Android and change the project build target to Android 2.2 and click apply and then ok.
However this appears to have no affect and when I try it again the target build is set back at Android 1.5.
Am I missing a step or something?

I'm trying to import an Android project into my Eclipse workspace, using existing source code. When I point Eclipse to my existing source location, it doesn't populate the Build Target area on the New Android Project dialog. Why isn't it letting me pick a build target?

My Motorola Droid shows up just fine in this configuration and appears as a deployment target. Works like a snap. How do I get the HTC Eris Droid to show up as a deployment target? Is there some special driver needed for the Eris?

I want to check my program code for time consuming operations. I thought DDMS is the best tool to achieve that.
However, I cant see Threads, Heaps and so on. It tells my to select a client. But I dont know where other than the Devices Tab, which doesn't take effect.
What do I have to do? Is there maybe something wrong with my ADB setup (But LogCat works fine)?

The Eclipse build for my 1.6 application project is succeeding and the Ant build is failing. I'm looking for help on why they aren't behaving the same way.
We are developing on Mac OSX 10.5.8 with Eclipse 3.5 against SDK 1.6 + Google APIs. There are no setting changes in Eclipse, either at workspace or project level. Similarly, our ant is also a vanilla-flavored unmodified installation of 1.7.1. JDK is 1.5.0_22. The CLASSPATH environment variable is not set. JAVA_HOME is /Library/Java/Home
The application was initially created by a team member using the Eclipse plugins. The application references two jar files, one of which has a dependency on javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSeeAlso, which is not defined anywhere in our code or in android.jar. The other jar file has an explicit dependency on android.jar. I generated the Ant build file using android update.
The Eclipse project builds an apk and runs the application in the emulator. I think this is incorrect behavior.
The Android ant project fails to build. I think this is correct behavior. MyClass.java:98: cannot access javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSeeAlso [javac] file javax/xml/bind/annotation/XmlSeeAlso.class not found
Why the two build methods are behaving differently? I would expect them both to fail.

I would like to run a custom shell script upon clicking Build Project in Eclipse. I tried modifying the "compile" section in build.xml, but my script is not getting run. Invoking ant debug on the commandline works, however.

I am using Eclipse 3.5 for Jave EE Developers. Plugins installed include: Android Development Tools, Adobe Flash Builder 4, PDT, PyDev. I have problem with running the application I built. I can start a new project, add a button, and run it on an AVD. Then I add another button, try to run it on AVD, and Eclipse says 1) gen folder is missing, 2) there are errors with build path.
I can get ride of the first error by simply refreshing the project in the left pane, but the second error always sticks around. I searched online and on StackOverflow here and here, although several people have the same problem, there is no definite solution I can find.

I had a project working in Eclipse completely, but after compiling it with ant in order to use Proguard to obfuscate the code the entire project fell apart. The project consists of a single package containing two main activities and 4 helper classes to handle databases and such. After using ant the activities work fine but Eclipse cannot find the helper classes and won't build. Even if I explicitly import the classes the error I get is
The import com.ts.routeTracking.DataHelper cannot be resolved while further mentions of the class get the error DataHelper cannot be resolved to a type. How can I get Eclipse and ant to work together?

I'm working with Android at the moment, trying to avoid using Eclipse (for which I have an irrational hatred).
I need to include an external .jar file (used in my Activity)and have no idea how to link it for ant debug...
I've read up on build.xml files but adding <path id="compiler.classpath">...</...> or <classpath> nodes to the XML doesn't help fix it.

What are the differences between building for target 2 (no gmaps add on) and target 3 (with gmaps addon).
Could any one has the ant scripts to bulids for these targets.
I see 1.5 SDK does these though custom ant tasks rather than 1.1 ant scripts (this was more clear and apperant on how it does the build)

I'm storing my Android project in a Subversion repository. After recently shuffling a bunch of stuff around I started getting tons of errors like: syntax error entries/project_name/src/.svnline 1Android AIDL Problem syntax error don't know what to do with "" entries/project_name/src/.svnline 28Android AIDL Problem etc.
It seems as if Eclipse is trying to build the files in the .svn directories now. This setup used to work fine.

I am trying to build my first project for Android platform using the Eclipse IDE. The problem I am facing is that there is no option under the "Build Target" label in the New Android Project dialog box. And, hence I am not able to proceed beyond this dialog box (as the "Next" button is deactivated.) The online documentation says, "Under Target, select an Android target to be used as the project's Build Target. The Build Target specifies which Android platform you'd like your application built against." Could anyone tell me how to bring options under "Target" label. I am using Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo) and have installed latest Android SDK as well as all Android Platform components. The screenshot of the dialog box is available at : http://shared.pho.to/B2BF3343-D5DD-4ED4-F50F-468BEFC7698E

Does anyone know how to DEBUG build an APK and launch it directly with Eclipse?
in my case, no matter whether i use Run> or Debug> menu command in Eclipse, my apk always logs Config.DEBUG as "false", although obviously the apk is signed with the key in factory debug.store.
