Android: main.xml error - java

I'm getting an error when I open my main.xml, I'm not seeing the UI of my app:
Eclipse is loading framework information and the layout library from the SDK folder.
main.xml will refresh automatically once the process is finished.
Do you have fix on it? I tried googling it but nothing worked for me.

It seems yet another Eclipse quirk. There's a solution here:
http://twigstechtips.blogspot.com/2011/02/eclipse-android-development-is-loading.html
And another alternative here:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/065b4e55f0189873

This is caused when you have old jar files in your sdk directory! look here
http://androidbook.blogspot.com/2009/07/when-eclipse-loading-framework.html
if it doesnt solve the issue maybe you can try changing the target to another version of the SDK eg. 2.2 instead of 2.1 to render the view instead

Same thing happened to me couple days ago after updating SDK through android SDK Manager. When I rebooted eclipse, I got a pop-up saying my Android Development Tool (ADT) or a plugin for Eclipse needs update to version 22.6.2
Here is the information http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
and click updating ADT, the download instructions are in there.
I copied it out here just in case,
Download the ADT Plugin Start Eclipse, then select Help > Install New Software. Click Add, in the top-right corner. In the Add Repository dialog that appears, enter "ADT Plugin" for the Name and the following URL for the Location: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ Note: The Android Developer Tools update site requires a secure connection. Make sure the update site URL you enter starts with HTTPS. Click OK. In the Available Software dialog, select the checkbox next to Developer Tools and click Next. In the next window, you'll see a list of the tools to be downloaded. Click Next. Read and accept the license agreements, then click Finish. If you get a security warning saying that the authenticity or validity of the software can't be established, click OK. When the installation completes, restart Eclipse.
It should then work just fine.
Hope this helps.

Cannot update eclipse ADT to 23.0.3 even after trying everything found on google

I am using eclipse for the first time. I copied an adt-bundle and everything worked fine until i connected to the internet. Then every time I open eclipse it says
This Android SDK requires Android Developer Toolkit version 23.0.0 or above. Current version is 22.6.2.v201403212031-1085508. Please update ADT to the latest version.
I tried to update by going to help>install new software

1.archive(by downloading plug in) and
2.work with 'https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/'

I tried everything, like uninstalling current adt and then installing, installing one at a time, copying files from tools/proguard etc. Nothing worked. Can somebody please help me?
This happened to me couple of times....This happens when you update eclipse ADT. There is nothing you can do to fix it other than download a fresh copy of eclipse ADT .Switch to Android studio . It get updates more frequently and it's easy to code using it. Android studio is still behind eclipse ADT but Google is updating it faster to change that.
Delete the adt folder and install eclipse as given below
Steps for updating eclipse
1. Download eclipse from the official site
2. Download and install jdk latest version
3. After installing the eclipse , Go to Help > Install New Software.
4. Click Add, in the top-right corner.
5. In the Add Repository dialog that appears, enter "ADT Plugin" for the
Name and the following URL for the Location:
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
6. Click OK.

10. If you get a security warning saying that the authenticity or validity of the software can't be established, click OK.
11. When the installation completes, restart Eclipse.

Eclipse does not work after update through Android SDK Manager

I have just updated my eclipse through Android SDK Manager, my eclipse pop out and error about the Android SDK.
This Android SDK requires Android Developer Toolkit version 23.0.0 or above.
Current version is 22.6.2.v201403212031-1085508
When I pressed the button "Check for Updates", the result from eclipse is "No Updates were found."
I am sure that my Android SDK should be 23.0.0 above.
All my project listed in the left corner of above picture contains errors.
I have studied this thread and I found that the "Java build path" was "Unable to get system liberary for the project"
The project was not built since its build path is incomplete
Whenever I tried to add the JRE System Library, it failed beacause of "Could not write file: C:\Users\Admin\workspace\ICEAPP(20140819_uc).classpath."
Can anyone give me so help?
Update the ADT-Plugin in eclipse (Help > Check for updates)
You have to remove the whole installation and reinstall everything again. This update seems to fail always. But reinstall works for all of this issues. With the new version 23. It seems there is a big compatibillity problem unsolved yet.
Check for updated fails but eclipse say it need one update. Also SDK Manager seems to be up to date.
Anyway, even if you get ot working, there still are problems for example with implementation of google play service.
Had a lot of issues by myself and others to, but reinstall solved it

Eclipse with ADT plugin - layout editor doesn't show content (stuck on "Loading editor")

I'm facing a very strange issue on Eclipse with Android ADT plugin.
When I try to open an XML layout file, the result is the one in the screenshot.
The Layout editor doesn't show the file name and no content is loaded. The editor stuck on "Loading editor" and if I switch to view, the XML is loaded fine.
This issue is raising up with every layout file and with every project I open.
I tried to:
restart Eclipse
update the ADT plugin
install all the packages and updates from the Android SDK Manager
no errors are shown in the console.
UPDATE
Now Eclipse is showing a pop-up error "An error has occurred. See error log for more details.java.lang.NullPointerException" when I try to open any Layout XML file.
Solution 1
At the right side of the image you attached click the android logo with 19 a drop down list will open select some different version...
selecting 20 works for me
Solution 2
right click layout file in the Package Explorer view and click
Open With -> Android Layout Editor
Right-click on your project and close all unrelated projects. Keep only one project opened at any one time.
Close all your perspectives and then open only a Java perspective.
Ensure that there is indeed a UCApplicationTheme that it has access to, otherwise change it to a different theme.
Restart Eclipse. Then restart your computer.
Then try opening a default layout from a newly generated blank Android project. Do not open the layout of a web view, even if you normally develop on Phone Gap/Cordova. Let's eliminate the web view as a possible problem.
When all else fails, reinstall Eclipse, the SDK, and ADT, completely from scratch.
And if you do get a NullPointerException, please be specific. Cut and paste on here the exact error it's giving you.
The Problem is you did update only android development tools from developer tool..
so you need to update the whole packages which are provided by the eclipse market..
Go to help-->install new software-->add the Repository-->and select all check boxes which are available in the developer tool...
Its works for me..

Error when try install plugin

I'm trying to install a plugin in Eclipse Luna. I installed Papyrus and am trying to install SWT designer, but before the download/installation is completed I get an error:
An error occurred during the
org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.CheckTrust phase.
session context was:(profile=epp.package.standard,
phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.CheckTrust,
operand=, action=). Error reading signed content. error in opening zip
file
After this error I can't install anything and the install manager does not work anymore and shows me the same error all the time only one way I delete the current Eclipse directory and extract it again.
This time I install Papyrus, SWT designer and some other, but I get the error between install another plugin again. This is wrong if I get an error on install any of plugin reinstalling Eclipse and the other plugin again.
Is this a bug or a problem?
OK finally i found the solution for solve this problem. I don't know why Eclipse is showing me this error and i don't know if this is the best solution. I solve my problem with delete the artifacts.xml file in Eclipse root directory.
After deleting this file try to install that plugin again but this time after few second everything completes and works perfectly.
UPDATE:
If you get that error again then just go to Eclipses' root directory and search for "artifacts.xml" and delete all the files is in the result ;)
Remove the artifacts.xml from the folder.
Keep a copy of it in some other location (preferably external devices such as pendrive or hard disks etc).
Restart Eclipse.
Install the software plugin you want to install (it will ask for permission again).
After installation paste the artifacts.xml file back into the eclipse folder.
Restart eclipse and set the SDK location.
Code to death!!! ;p
Run Eclipse as an administrator, then try to install the plugin again via help->Install New Software. it worked for me
I installed E4 RCP Patch(bugzillas 445122)(Install new software -> Eclipse 4.4.1 Patches for bug 445122) and this helped me.
I ran across this problem while updating eclipse's internal software. I discovered that the jar file org.eclipse.epp.mpc.help.ui_1.5.2.v20161004-1655.jar (found in the error details) in the eclipse plugins directory was corrupted (7-Zip was unable to inspect its contents). I redownloaded and manually replaced this file with one downloaded from their site, and I was then able to install the software without an issue. Hope this helps :)
(If it was a different JAR file for you, you can click "show directory contents" on this page and download the one you need.)
The reason for this error is typically a damaged jar in the bundle pool. You can fix this without manually editing files:
run the Eclipse installer ("Oomph")
select "Bundle pools" from the menu
hit the "Analyze agent" button
wait until the column "Damaged Artifacts" doesn't show a percent number anymore (scanning has finished)
You can now filter the bottom view to show only damaged artifacts, and choose to either delete or repair them (repair means to download them again from the Internet).
Recently i had this issue & i did a few workaround to make things right,
Drag and dropped from official page, normally eclipse restarts after the download, and a pop-up will ask us to select the svn connectors from list. but that didn't happened to me.
Install svn Plugin. (By drag and drop or install new software or any)
After this goto window->preferences->Team->svn
select Connector Tab and click Get connectors Button then the prompt will appear select any one connector to get it done (i use NativeHL 1.8).
I solved this problem by editing the artifacts.xml.
Close Eclipse.
Edit the artifacts.xml.
Find and delete previous entries related to the plugin you are
trying to install.
Save artifacts.xml.
After this you should be able to start Eclipse normally and install your plugin.
I tried many solution from here including the one which says removing artifacts.xml and try installing with opening software with Run as Administrator also tried to install from the Help option "Install new software" none of this worked for me.
Then I updated to the latest version of JDK and it worked perfectly.
I hope this help you.
Thanks.

You need to reference AppCompat.
Download the support library under extras from Android sdk Manager.
AppCompat is located # android sdk/extras/android/support/v7/appcompat/
Import the library project into workspace.
Select File > Import.
Select Existing Android Code Into Workspace and click Next. Browse ( android sdk/extras/android/support/v7/appcompat/) and click finish
Right click on your project. Goto properties. Android. Add. Browse and Reference AppCOmpat.
Done.
Snaps
Library project imported to eclipse
Referenced AppCompat
You can try thus. Such as
You have updated the android sdk but not updated the adt to match with it.
You can update the adt from here
You might need to update the software source for your adt update
Go to eclipse > help > Check for updates.
It should list the latest update of adt. If it is not working try this
go to eclipse > help > Install new software
Click on add
add this url : update adt dynamically
give it any name.
It will list the updates available- which should ideally be adt 20.xx
Eclipse will restart and hopefully everything should work fine for you.
