Eclipse ADT for Android not working

I installed ADT on my Eclipse so I can develop Android apps. The issue is that every time I try to load the project, it shows lots of errors like these:

[2015-08-01 07:15:41 - AndroidApp1] C:\Users\Arad\workspace\appcompat_v7\res\values-v21\themes_base.xml:137: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name: attr 'android:colorPrimaryDark'. [2015-08-01 07:15:41 - AndroidApp1]

I found a similar question where it said to remove Android Wear ARM EABI v7a System Image so I uninstalled it and tried but without success. Later, I uninstalled the whole API 22, but still nothing and now it shows errors about API 21. What can I do about it?

Solution

  • Here is one thing to do:

    1. After importing the library for appcompat-v7 right click and go to properties
    2. Click Android and change the Project Build Target to API 21
    3. Clean and rebuild

    step 1 : right click -> properties

    step 2 : Change Project Build Target

    This should fix the issue of not finding the resources, I believe.
