I've been trying to fix this for a while, I'd suggest comparing the .cproject file in your project with the one in templates/cpp-template-default and removing extra section(s) in your file. I had to remove one section, I don't why it was added but it works now.

Update: It seems this section is added once you open eclipse with NDK_ROOT not defined, and after that, even if you define it, this section stays there in the configuration files and causes the same errors, you need to remove it to get your project to work.

The section looks like this, you can remove it safely after you close eclipse.
