eclipse, new android application project, "next button" is disabled in section that wants the project name


I want to start programming for android so I downloaded Eclipse and installed ADT Plugin on it and downloaded the Android SDK Now when I want to create a new android project in "File->New->Android Application Project" it directs me to a page that wants "Application name" & "Project name" etc. so I filled the fields like this:

Application name: Hello

Project name: Hello

Package name: test.example.hello

Minimum required SDK: API8: Android 2.2(Froyo)

Target SDK: API16: Android 4.1(Jelly Bean)

Compile with:

theme: none

But the "Next" button is disabled! in the top of the page it says: " A package name cannot start or end with a dot" and there is a tiny red thing(cross) near the theme field so I cannot create a new project what should I do ?


Solution

  • The problem was that The SDK Platform was not installed on my computer, so I opened Window>Android SDK Manager and then clicked on SDK Platform and then clicked Install 1 package and then the problem was solved!
