I downloaded ADT from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and when I follow the instructions to create a new project, in step 7, when I click “Finish”, Eclipse gives me an error message box saying
Errors occurred during the build.
Errors running builder 'Android Resource Manager' on project 'Example'.
java.lang.NullPointerException
I am stuck in the New Project dialog box because clicking the Finish button continues to give NPE. Even when I click Cancel, try creating a new project by exiting Eclipse and trying again, it always gives the same error.
I have JDK 6 and JDK 7 installed. Using ADT Build: v22.6.2-1085508.
Here is a snippet of the Eclipse log file ( full log ):
!ENTRY com.android.ide.eclipse.adt 4 0 2014-06-11 22:40:51.991
