Stuck with @SuppressLint(“NewApi”) (developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity)

Question

I\'m a begginer with Android and currently stuck with the lession: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html

In the part C

Answer 1

I ran into the exact same problem. CTRL-SHIFT-o (organize imports) filled in the missing import for me.

Answer 2

SuppressLint annotation was added in API level 16. You need to either:

• set your build SDK to 16 or higher, or
• copy tools/support/annotations.jar from your Android SDK to the project libs.

Answer 3

Your build target is NOT set to API Level 14 or higher. This is not a bug, please close this issue.

(In eclipse: Project => Properties => Android)

Answer 4

It works, if you set the line @SuppressLint("NewApi") above the class declaration! (In this lesson, this line is positioned within onCreate, and that doesn't work!)

Answer 5

Move your cursor over "SuppressLint", which will be underlined in red. Select the fix option "Fix project setup". From the popup list select "add archive 'annotations.jar'. Have a happy day.

Answer 6

ctrl+shift+O to import libraries and ctrl+s to save made the error go away for me.
