There are only three reasons you will ever get this error:
- The class genuinely doesn't exist. If you are using code from an official example and getting this, make sure you have the latest build of the library
- You have not added the jar to your build path. To fix this, right click on the jar in Eclipse, and do Build Path ► Add to Build Path.
- Your jar is not in the
/libs
folder. This happens when you have added the jar to the build path, but newer versions of ADT need it to be in/libs
. Put it there and re-add it to the build path.
Mostly, such errors occur because newer versions of the ADT require all external jars to be in the/libs
folder. Your colleague was probably on a different version than you, and hence the error.
