This is a problem with ADT v22. It is pretty hard to fix. There are some suggestions here: The CommonsBlog - Don't Manually Modify Your Eclipse Build Path... Except Now for R22 (thanks to StreetsOfBoston and CommonswareGuy)

Question
Currently going through a nightmare attempting to fix a java.lang.verifyerror, was having issues with eclipse so I decided to uninstall and reinstall it, everything seemed normal until I tried to launch the app, thats when I noticed that I couldnt launch the app anymore, everytime I try to lauch it it crashes and gives me this error, however I have no clue what is causing it as the error log gives me little clues and I cant find any concrete answers on the internet, can anyone tell me what is wrong based on my logcat? any help will go a long way thanks

Solution
OTHER TIPS
So, as far as I'm aware, Android uses a different class file format and if you are running a third party JAR/Java files, you have to first run them through the dx
tool that ships with the Android SDK.
Other possible reason may probably be some method in a java.lang
class that is not supported on the Android SDK level you are using (for instance, String.isEmpty()
).
If the answer by @G. Blake Meike doesn't work for you for whatever reason, here's another way of fixing it.
- Right Click Project > Build Path > Configure Build Path
- Click on Android on left
- On right select any other Target Name/API other than 4.2.2 since it seems that's with problems.
- Hit OK (At this point it rebuilds your projects with the selected API)
- Run the Application
Hope that helps.
I just enabled the 3rd party library in the "Import and export" TAB of configuring build path.
