multiple eclipse error when starting eclipse, opening project - java

yesterday i just tried to run my application on real mobile device, and it did. just that the application itself have coding error. but then when i open my other project, start eclipse today, there are manny errors. i forgot exactly which error appear when.
.java.util.ConcurrentModificationException,No repository found at file, , Plug-in com.android.ide.eclipse.adt was unable to load class com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.ToolsLocator. An error occurred while automatically activating bundle com.android.ide.eclipse.adt (2), :/C:/Users/My%20Name/Downloads/. right now all my import the "android" becomes cannot be resolved. along with all my other object can't work. like LocationManager, button, onClickListener,String..com.google.android.gms.maps, setContentView, Bundle...and more..
i do not know what cause these error, my eclipse seems to be missing some files. i never download anything extra on eclipse before. i tried updating but it has nothing to update. should i uninstall and reinstall eclipse? i prefer to avoid that to save me working all over again but it seem there are no other choices? i uses eclipse for a long time that nothing like that happened before..

"Cannot resolve symbol ..." error with "R" but project builds fine

I started working on a new app (min API: 24, target/compile: 27) yesterday and updated Android Studio to version 3.6 after creating the project. Now I keep running into the same problem over and over:
When I add a new UI item with an id or if I change an existing id, then access the e.g. R.id.activity1 in my code, there's no suggestion popup for the id. When I just type it out, the code turns red and it's marked as an error on the sidebar and in the class name. The app still builds and runs fine.
Contrary to this question not all of the R occurances are marked though, only the ones that I changed/created since the last restart.
What I've tried:
Build - Clean Project
Build - Rebuild Project
File - Sync Project with Gradle Files
Neither works. I have to restart Android Studio to get rid of the fake errors (no need to invalidate caches).
The gradle file looks fine as far as I can see (appcompat and design are version 27.1.1) and there's only a single error in the xml files that is connected to the problem:
This project contains Java compilation errors, which can cause
rendering failures for custom views. Fix compilation problems first.
How do I fix this, so I can actually create/edit ids without restarting Android Studio every time?

Sudden weird errors on a project

Today I came to work, happy. But when I opened my Eclipse, I saw that one of my projects has errors.It's weird because it shows that it has errors only in the window bar, and not in the Navigator. I don't have any Java errors, this is a valid project that was fine all the time:
Some of the errors on the error log of Eclipse:
JavaBuilder handling ImageBuilderInternalException while building: SP_Procedure
Cannot connect to VM
File <SomeFile> has been skipped, problem while reading ('Resource is out of sync with the file system')
Unhandled event loop exception
Internal error
When I run an application from this project, I get a warning message but when I proceed, it works fine, but still. It's very disturbing and I'm not sure if it's harmless.
I tried to:
Restart Eclipse
Restart my machine
Clean projects and recompiling them.
Refresh projects
Pray
Nothing helped. What could be the problem? (I'm using Indigo Service Release 2)
The following nuclear option has desperation written all over it. But I have been where the OP has been with the Juno version of Eclipse.
Run a "Synchronize with Repository" and save all of your local updates to a different directory.
Delete the project. (Check the box to delete the contents on disk. Scary step, but that's OK, because you saved it in a different directory in the previous step, right?)
Read in a fresh project from the repository. It builds happily at this point.
Integrate your local updates.
Keep on praying.
Looks that one unused JAR was deleted, but for some reason, I didn't get errors in any file, even in the files that imports this JAR! So what I did was restoring this JAR, delete unused imports and deleted the JAR again.
I've found this error after two days of navigating on this project on each file.. This is weird that Eclipse didn't recognize that1 this is an error, and throw many unrelated errors such as:
Cannot connect to VM
File has been skipped, problem while reading ('Resource is out of sync with the file system')
Unhandled event loop exception
Is this a bug in Eclipse? (All errors and warnings are enabled!)
1 As seen in the image in the question..
A class from the list of imports for the file seems to have moved out or the jar file containing the class is missing.
Expand the imports section and check if you find some classes that are missing but have been imported.
Though it is a pain, sometimes the easiest solution is to back up all your projects (either in a repository or somewhere else on your computer) then uninstall and reinstall eclipse. No it's not fun, but it should reset eclipse so everything works again. The downfall though is that you have to reconfigure eclipse to any special settings you had/reinatall any extra functionality currently installed (eg. android add-on) and reconnect to any repositories you have. While punting isn't fun, it can be effective... I hope you don't have to resort to this though.
I have went through that problem a lot of times, and tried everything you tried. Rebuild, recompile, refresh, remove and add JDK, remove and reinstall Eclipse... nothing worked
The only thing I concluded is that the workspace metadata was corrupted.
What I did (every time it happened) was
Create an empty workspace
Import -> existing projects into worskpace
Mark the "copy projects" (else it will only link them)
Wait for the copy, and start working with the new workspace
If you work with SCM systems (Git, SVN, etc), making a full checkout will do the trick too, but the worskpace import will let you retrieve those changes you didn't get to commit (if any).
It's a little painful if you have somethings already set (like JDK names, servers, etc), but then I realized it was faster than keep searching how to fix the workspace
Regards!
PS : I've been working with Kepler lately, and everything works fine till now
Click Window -> Show View -> Other -> General -> Problems
This view will show you what is wrong.
Did you, by any chance, update your virtual machine outside of Eclipse? I can't help but feel that we're both missing a finer detail here. I just keep seeing "cannot connect to VM" and thinking that it's a major clue.
Have you tried running anything from the terminal? Does it work there?
If so, do you know where your current edition of Java is located? Is Eclipse looking somewhere else?
Is this exclusive to one project? Do you use any additional libraries to the JDK?
Maybe try this for Resource is out of sync with the file system error:
Right click project in Eclipse Package Explorer
Close Project.
Right click project in Eclipse Package Explorer
Open Project.
Other things not mentioned:
project properties > java build path, see if any of those tabs got changed, local file got moved? read/write permissions on some file you are linking to?
project properties > java compiler, see if workplace settings have changed? maybe under errors/warnings, you can systematically set them to 'ignore' until the error goes away to determine what type of error it is?
maybe update some of the eclipse plugins?
I saw something like this happening for a number of reasons. Mainly because of validation in files other Java source code. See if you are validating XML for instance.
Right click your project and chose Properties (Alt+Enter) and Validation to see the related configuration.
As for the danger, I lived with those marks for ages and nothing wrong ever happened.

first attempts at creating Application Project result in java.lang.NullPointerException error

I have downloaded the ADT bundle (yesterday), unzipped it, opened Eclipse and followed the directions from http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/bundle.html to set it up. I then followed the directions on http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html to Build First App. Each time - and I have been trying for two days, several hours each - I get the same error after I click "finish".
Errors occurred during the build.
Errors running builder 'Android Resource Manager' on project 'Testing'.
java.lang.NullPointerException
I have checked and double checked that all the folders are correctly placed. I have accepted all the default settings. I haven't changed anything, just followed instructions.
I'm on a Macbook Pro OSX 10.8.4. using ADT Build: v22.0.1-685705.
I'd appreciate some advice.
Same problem happened to me but using Windows. In the end I opted to just download the bundle that includes all you need, no hassle: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Eclipse doesn't import java libraries on cold start, plus other compiling errors

Eclipse is giving me a few problems.
After a cold start and the loading of android libs, Eclipse underline the import statements or says that java.lang.Object couldn't be found.
Closing it and reopening often fix the problem. If it doesn't, another close-open fix it definitely. But it shows at each cold-start.
It also gives
"The type java.lang.Enum cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files"
"The project cannot be build until build path errors are resolved"
But if i restart the build path errors and the enum problem are not show any more(sometimes the enum proble got fixed some time after eclipse's loading finished)
"Project 'xxx' is missing required source folder: 'gen' "
that should be generated automatically generated while building, and still restarting will fix them
In addition, in many projects, while building or cleaning, eclipse says that it couldn't delete the bin/. directory. I noticed that that directory is read-only, and if i try to remove the attribute(even from dos), it immediately return to read-only.
This problems aren't show-stoppers, i still can code and i still can get my apps exported, but it is quite annoying to have to restart eclipse a few times before being able to use it(and eclipse isn't that fast at opening), and i would really know how to fix it.
I searched in the net a bit, but i dind't found nothing useful or that worked.
Is there a way to fix them?
I didn't "unistalled"(it is just stored in a directory) Eclipse, since i should then reinstall android sdk, mercurial plugin, and re download and set up a few libraries i use in quite all my project, and i really hope there is another way.
final notes:
everything works when this problems doesn't show: the app works, logcat too, the right device is used to install the app, so i think java and android sdks are installed just right
I had that problem before so I just saved my projects to a different file and uninstalled everything ( java, android sdk, eclipse ). When I reinstalled it all I put the android sdk on the root of my c drive as I have a windows machine and then instead of picking where java was installed I let it do its own thing. I dont use a mercurial plug in but your "read only" problem could be related to that. Its possible your downloading files that are "read only" and there for you have no way to alter them. Im guessing since you said youve been programing you already know how to set the build paths and stuff. It might just be where everything is installed or something silly like privilege settings on your machine.
What were you using the mercurial plug in for anyway? just curious :)
Have you included the java lib in your project or? For a couple of weeks ago I sat with an project where i absolutly needed some of the methods, so because android just have some of the java lib I imported the need libs and used that.

Errors in Eclipse for no reason

I'm building an Android app.
I worked today on my app, and suddenly I saw that all the projects in the workspace are marked with an error. I don't know what caused it, and I can't find explanation of the error anywhere.
I'm using Helios with Windows 7. I even tried downloading Eclipse again but it didn't help.
Today I tried to integrate Facebook with my app. Their tutorial required me to try to get a hesh key from a keystore. In the process I added an Environment Variable named JAVA_HOME, and pointed it to the JDK.
I don't know if it's the cause of my problem, but I think it might be related.
I really don't know what to do.
Thanks!
Try this. In eclipse, go to Project --> Clean --> Select "clean all projects". This should rebuild all projects.
Try cleaning your android project. I get problems with Eclipse sometime, and if I clean the project, it fixes it.
Find the "Problems" view. That will give you more details. Post the description of the problems, we can get more information.
click Window -> Show View -> Problems
Typically, the problem is with a resource you've recently added to your project (drawable, assets, raw, etc.)
Some things to check are:
Invalid XML files
Invalid 9-patch images (outer 1-pixel border must be full black or transparent)
Typically, just start by removing a resource, then cleaning your project (Project > Clean). If the errors go away, that resource is your problem. If not, continue this process until the error DOES go away. Start with the most recent resources you've added, naturally.
i solved error or all project showing errors this way.... close eclipse.
then Right Click on eclipse shortcut-->open file location-->open command widows there and type "eclipse.exe -clean" eclipse the starts..and in my case errors were gone...hope it helps
