Last ADT update (22.6.3) spoiled my Eclipse

Question

I am using mavenized library project with the following plugin:

        <plugin>
            <groupId>com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2</groupId>
            <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.6.0</version>
            <extensions>true</extensions>
            <configuration>
                <nativeLibrariesDirectory>ignored</nativeLibrariesDirectory>
                <attachSources>true</attachSources>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>

But after the last update of the ADT (22.6.3) everything went wrong, the JAR is not built by Eclipse, and I got error messages of lyfecicle like this:

Description Resource Path Location Type Conflicting lifecycle mapping (plugin execution "com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2:android-maven-plugin:3.6.0:proguard (execution: default-proguard, phase: process-classes)"). To enable full functionality, remove the conflicting mapping and run Maven->Update Project Configuration. pom.xml /actionbarsherlock line 1 Maven Project Build Lifecycle Mapping Problem

I have followed those instructions in order to solve the problems, and indeed they are gone, but the JAR is not being built. Also tried with this: com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2: Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration? but no success.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

We had this issue an after rebuilding the whole environment again (newest Eclipse Juno J2EE + newest maven-android plugin) figured out that the problem was exactly in the maven-android plugin. It has an update issue: output directory set to target/classes instead of bin/classes. This can be fixed unchecking the "Allow output folder for source folders" box in the source tab of the build path of each project. For more info about that please check this: https://github.com/rgladwell/m2e-android/issues/219

Answer 2

I had exactly the same problem.

I end up installing the latest version of Eclipse, and then add the Android software repo on it and everything is working now.

Answer 3

Try change version to 3.9.0-rc.1:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2</groupId>
    <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.9.0-rc.1</version>
</dependency>

Works for me.

Answer 4

Has the same issue ! I simply downloaded the last version of Eclipse here : http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#ExistingIDE

It includes the Android SDK => nothing else to download. Works perfectly directly.

And what is really great is that my whole workspace (projects opened in Eclipse, signatures, etc...) has been recovered. Nothing to do ! Just download, place in any folder on your computer (a Mac in my case), and start to work with the last Eclipse version.

Really happy :)
