My platform information OS: Windows 7 32 bit ADT version: Build: v22.2.1-833290 SDK Tools version: 22.2.1 SDK Built-tools version: 18.1
I was trying to get the new Renderscript support library v8 to work. I created an android application using API level 18 as the target SDK and compile SDK, API level 17 as the minimum required SDK. I then followed the steps in the following links to configure my project, http://android-developers.blogspot.hk/2013/09/renderscript-in-android-support-library.html , http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/renderscript/compute.html#access-rs-apis .
After I added
renderscript.target=18
renderscript.support.mode=true
sdk.buildtools=18.1.0
into the file "project.properties", I added an empty .rs file into the src folder (under my package, just like usual). Then I received the following error message.

Since I understand the meaning of the first two error message, I added
#pragma version(1)
#pragma rs java_package_name(com.example.aaaaa)
to the file.
While the first two error message went away, the following error message appeared again and I can't get rid of it by adding/modifying the content of the script (e.g. I copied a previously working script and it won't work now). However, I observed that the corresponding .java script file in the gen folder was created properly (with import android.support.v8.renderscript.*; inside).

In eclipse, there's a red cross on the project name, indicating there's something wrong in the project. If I try to run the application, eclipse will prompt "Your project contains error(s), please fix them before running your application". However, other than the error message I got, and the red cross on the project name, there's no error in any of the java file (no red crosses on the java files)
