I'm trying to import the classes required to use the new "Navigation Drawer" from Android http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/navigation-drawer.html#ImpactOnNav
DrawerLayout: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/widget/DrawerLayout.html
ActionBarDrawerToggle: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/app/ActionBarDrawerToggle.html
The import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout cannot be resolved The import android.support.v4.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle cannot be resolved
I have updated the libraries to the latest version but still these classes are not recognized.
How do I update the JARs in libs?
I usually do it by copying the file. You will find the JARs inside $ANDROID_SDK/extras/android/support
, where $ANDROID_SDK
is wherever your Android SDK is installed.
If you use Eclipse, if you copy this at the filesystem level, and Eclipse is open, press <F5>
with the project highlighted in Package Manager so Eclipse picks up the changes. Easier is to drag it out of the SDK and drop the JAR into libs/
right in Eclipse, which will both update the filesystem and let Eclipse know about the change.
It's possible that the Eclipse option to add the JARs (right-click over the project, then choose Android Tools > Add Support Library... from the context menu) will also do this. That particular approach doesn't work for me due to some peculiarities with my development environment.
