Answer 1

I've just had this problem. The fix is simple - restart Eclipse. The reason is a bit more complicated:

1. I had a fresh install of Eclipse and android SDK v.17 (4.2.2)
2. I downloaded and imported source code (ActionBarSherlock) which had target=android-14 in it's project.properties file.
3. Eclipse figured out that I use android-17 and updated project.properties to target=android-17, BUT, eclipse still had target=android-14 cached somewhere in its workspace's .metadata folder and was using the cahced version during the build

Restarting eclipse solved it.
