Another way is to set the environment variable into run configuration for pom.xml.

Go to Run Configurations menu, select the Run configuration used for your project pom.xml and select the Environment Tab and select "New", then insert:

• ANDROID_HOME into name Field
• path to your sdk into value field

It works, and in that way the Variable is set only when you launch the maven configuration for selected projec, and you can also set different path for different projects, and you don't need to change your .bashrc. It work also in windows.
