ActionBarSherlock not import

Question

I have a problem with actionbarsherlock that it drives me crazy!

I have a new workspace, I imported my project and the library projects. There is also actionbarsherlock library project.

My project doesn't generate R file, I suppose because there isn't actionbarsherlock in library path.

image 1

Red error is the actionbarsherlock lib

I import the library project and fix the path...

image 2

fix path of actionbarsherlock

I clean project but if I return to project properties in the android section I SHOW LIKE IMAGE 1!!!!! It seems like eclipse doesn't save project's changes..

I try:

Change project Build Target to 4.2.2 (In my project and in actionbarsherlock).
Change in java compiler the 1.6 java compiler compliance level (checked "enable project specific settings").
Change in manifest.xml android:minSdkVersion="8".
Add android support libraries.
Refresh & clean projects...

What am I doing wrong?????

I post 2 other images and the eclipse problems..

Actually you have only one problem. ie, ABS library import. If it is fixed, second problem will vanish.

The problem is your library location(you fade out it in pics;)). Try this,

1.Delete the library from project explorer(be careful, don't delete original files from disc).

2.Go to your original workspace folder and make sure that the library ABS(actionbar sherlock) is out of all other folders( the folder contains only that library). If not, cut&past it out( or you can paste it inside your project folder).

3.Import the library from new location.

Now, add the library to your project and see if the problem resolved.

try it but nothing. Thank you for your answer. I think that delete the new workspace to make another would be better.. – Tenaciousd93 Aug 08 '13 at 15:08
Ok. go ahead. Now, inside your workspace, only 2 folders- ABS&your project (1 library, 1 project). Did it solve? – Nizam Aug 08 '13 at 15:50
no, I use the hardest way, but it works. Thanks for the support! – Tenaciousd93 Aug 09 '13 at 06:31

After some time, to fix them I did some things:

Delete all my project in eclipse (not from disk).
Close eclipse.
New Workspace (3rd).
change directory of actionbarsherlock and my project
import in eclipse all actionbarlibrary (with sample project, actionbarsherlock-i18n, etc..).
import my project
fix library
close another time eclipse
now it seems to work...

Thanks to all for your answers.
