I'm working on a team project. I included a .jar file in Build Path and committed to SVN. When I updated code in my working directory, a new folder appears in Eclipse called "Android Dependencies". If I let it be there, my program runs; If I remove it, my program reports a ClassNotFoundException.

Now how to fix this ClassNotFoundException?

For the people whose heart dropped when they read the comment that deleting the Android Dependencies virtual folder will destroy your project, there is an easy fix.

  1. Right click on the destroyed project
  2. Select "Android Tools > Fix Project Properties" in the dropdown

I hosed my project dependencies when trying to set up my git repo, and this is fixed it.
