Answer 1

I had added another project to my workspace and was trying to reference an activity from it in the manifest file, and I was getting this error. The problem is I was referencing the library incorrectly. This is how I fixed the problem:

• Right click on project
• Select Properties
• Click on Android on left menu
• Click on Add
• Please select a Library Project

The jar went into Android Dependencies folder and this error was fixed.
