AndroidAnnotations: @Rest annotation compile error

Question

When trying to define a rest template using the @Rest annotation, and when providing one or more "converters" in that annotation, I receive the following compile error:

The converter class must be a subtype of org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageConverter

When, in fact, I have tried to pass in GsonHttpMessageConverter.class and MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter.class which are both such subtypes.

I have the following libraries included in my /libs directory

androidannotations-api-2.7.1.jar
gson-2.2.4.jar
jackson-core-asl-1.9.12.jar
jackson-mapper-asl-1.9.12.jar
spring-android-auth-1.0.1.RELEASE.jar
spring-android-core-1.0.1.RELEASE.jar
spring-android-rest-template-1.0.1.RELEASE.jar

I'm not sure if this is an issue with AndroidAnnotations or with my own setup, but help would be appreciated.

Please post the code of your @Rest class. – tbruyelle Jun 08 '13 at 14:42 — tbruyelle, Jun 08 '13 at 14:42

I had the same problem but I solved it. Only change my Eclipse. I was using Helios with Android Development Toolkit

Now I dowload The Android SDK than includes Eclipse + ADT plugin. Use my old workspace with my proyect and all work fine!!!.
