Apps Android Development Issue with Eclipse

[maverick.gugu]

Hi,
i am trying to build an android application in eclipse. My issue in detail is as follows:

1. I first setup the sdk and adt plugin along with the svn for eclipse.
2. Then I imported an existing svn trunk from (File->Import->Checkout projects from SVN).
3. Then I face the following errors:

a. Project has no default.properties file! Edit the project properties to set one.
b. None of import files are being resolved. It includes java.io, and all the basic java classes. I checked the Compiler Compliance level too.. It is set to 1.6
c. When I check into project properties for the issue, under Java Build Path: I find "Build path is entry missing: Projectname/gen"
Then in the libraries tab i find: "Unable to get System Library for the project".

It would be really nice if some one can throw some light on this issue. plz let me know if u need any more description.

Thanks,
Maverick gugu

P.S: SipDroid is the Application I am trying to build

Just some guesses:
When you checked out the project, the last step should be something along the line of "create new project from this checkout" then you can setup the android project, was that the case?

When all else fails try project -> clean

When i import the trunk to check out, in the last step:

check out as a project using new project wizard is disabled.
(It is said that this will only be available only if the .project file is there in the repo).

So i go on selecting the "Check out as a project in the workspace" and i chose the "default workspace location" i.e my current one.

Are you using a demo that comes with the SDK? you could try to import it rather than check out from google.

To do that you could go:
File > New > Project > Android Project

The select the radio button "Create Project from existing source"

The browse to: (Wherever you store your SDK)\android-sdk-windows\samples\android-9\SipDemo


Otherwise I'm fresh out of guesses, sorry.

Hi..
That's the same step I have been trying to do.. But now i'm in for some new kind..

When i finish selecting the source from browse and i am about to click OK..

"The API level for the selected SDK target does not match the Min SDK Version."

This flashes on top.. Anything I could do for this?

Thanks for your patience.. I am totally new to this stuff.. I am trying hard to understand..

No prob, i just ask that people check out my apps if I help them out

Anyways make sure you have

    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" />
    <uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion="9" />

in your manifest.xml

AFTER the close of the

</application>

tag but before the close of the manifest tag.

That worked like a charm.. But I'm really unlucky.. This time I'm not able to create the new project because:
1. An Eclipse project already exists in this directory. Consider using File > Import > Existing Project instead.
2. There is a project already existing in this folder.
