How to add "android-support-v13.jar" to my project?

I’m following the book "Android Application Development for Dummies" and arrived in a part of the book where it says the following: Copy the android-support-v13.jar file to your project’s libs folder.

I did just that. I found the file in the SDK folder. I copied to the libs directory where my project is, and performed a cleaning in the same (clean), by eclipse. However, it is not detecting "android-support-v13.jar" in the "Android Dependences" folder, as the book says.

This is really the right way to "import" support v13 for my eclipse project?

You have to reference the imported library on project.properties.

In a Helloworld, he’d be like this:

target=android-21
android.library.reference.1=../appcompat_v7

In your case, I’d leave her that way:

target=<sua versão>
<bibliotecas já importadas>
android.library.reference.n+1=../android-support-v13

  • I did what you said, but Eclipse still didn’t recognize the v13 library. Looks like this in my project.properties: ==== target=android-19 android.library.Reference. 1=.. /appcompat_v7 // android.library.Reference. n+1=.. /android-support-v13 ==== Would that be so? I have also performed the cleaning(clean), after the procedure and nothing.

  • The n+1 is a mathematical expression, not to be typed exactly n+1, but yes the next number in the references. If your project has 4 references, then the correct line would be android.library.reference.5=../android-support-v13

Well, assuming you’re Android Studio: Go to File, then click Project Structure. Inside Modules, go to app and then dependencies. In the upper right corner there is a button with sign (+), click on it and then on 'File Dependency'. Ready, now just add the lib "android-support-v13.jar".

  • Thanks for your help, but I’m using Eclipse. You have suggestions on how I can solve this problem there?

  • Sorry @Stokes, I have no idea, it’s been a long time since I used Eclipse. Att
