I just had this issue, when creating a new project. After following the instructions from the link you provided, close your project, then close Eclipse, restart Eclipse, open your project then clean and build your project. This did the trick for me.

Answer 3

As in the instructions you mentioned, please make sure to follow this step to add .jar files instead of directly go to Properties > Java Build Path > Libraries to add them.

In the new library project, expand the libs/ folder, right-click each .jar file and select Build Path > Add to Build Path. For example, when creating the the v7 appcompat project, add both the android-support-v4.jar and android-support-v7-appcompat.jar files to the build path.
