Question

I finally was able to build and debug the android platform with this tutorial. I imported my project in eclipse, and afterwards installed ADT. Then I converted my imported p

I got the a similar error When following the Notepad tutorial on the Android Developers website, the first step in Exercise 1 is to create the first project by going to

File->New->Android Project-> "Create project from existing source"

The problem is that when you select the Notepadv1 path to create the project from existing source, Eclipse will take the project out of the parent folder and move it up a level. For example, if you select

C:\workspace\NotepadCodeLab\Notepadv1

... as the existing source, Eclipse will copy all the contents of that subfolder except the AndroidManifest.xml (and Android.mk file) into a new folder one level up, eg.

C:\workspace\Notepadv1

So one workaround is to create the project, close Eclipse, then copy in all the missing files from the old subfolder to the new folder, then open Eclipse again and refresh the folder.

Presto, no more missing files.
