ClassDefNotFound Error with Google BaseGameUtils GameHelper

I don't know whats happening, but for some reason i always get a ClassDefNotFound Error when i try to add Google BaseGameUtils to my app project. I did all the steps from the Google Developer website, but still getting the ClassDefNotFound execption on GameHelper:

public GameHelper getGameHelper() {
    if (mHelper == null) {
        mHelper = new GameHelper(this, mRequestedClients);
        mHelper.enableDebugLog(mDebugLog);
    }
    return mHelper;
}

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle b) {
    super.onCreate(b);
    if (mHelper == null) {
        getGameHelper();
    }
    mHelper.setup(this);
}

The line mHelper = new GameHelper(this. mRequestedClients); throws the class exception.

I tried everything:

  • I tried preject cleaning
  • I tried export order
  • I checked every library

I don't know what i should try or do. BTW i am using eclipse as IDE and the latest ADT and BuildTools. My SDK and play services lib are also the latest version.

LogCat Error:

Solution

  • Okay, i fixed it by replaceing my eclipse version with a newer one. I don't know why this happened, but after updating everything else, this seemed like the only left thing and it worked.
