Project has no default.properties file! Edit the project properties to set one

Question

While configuring MJAndriod I have got an error as follows:

Project has no default.properties file! Edit the project properties to set one.

Answer 1

For me this problem occurred because I develop in two different environments with the same files. The newer environment converts the file structure and works fine then when I go back to the old environment I get this error. After messing around for a while trying to figure this out here is the solution I use:

1) rename project.properties to default.properties

2) edit .classpath file to remove the line:

<classpathentry exported="true" kind="con" path="com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.LIBRARIES"/>

4) Restart eclipse and/or clean the projects (may not be necessary)

Answer 2

I have nothing to do something special.Only Open the debug.properties file edit target=android-APILEVEl.Like suppose it is default target=android-8 you can edit it target=android-4.Then build the project.Again edit target=android-8.Again edit it.Now you can see there have no error in your project.

Answer 3

See project.properties in android project. In ADT 14, default.properties was renamed to project.properties.

Quote from the changelog:

default.properties which is the main project’s properties file containing information such as the build platform target and the library dependencies has been renamed project.properties.

*Note: Per the above link, if you don't have a default.properties file, likely you should upgrade your tools.

See build changes in revision 14, at the bottom under "Project Setup"

Answer 4

"default.properties" is renamed as "project.properties". You can reach "Package Explorer" -> "MyXXXXXApp" -> "project.properties"
