Error in Eclipse (for Android): The type java.lang.String cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

Question

I am trying to run an Android project that someone else has created. I have opened the project in Eclipse as:

File --> New --> Project --> Android P         


        

Answer 1

Do one more step before running:

Right Click(Project) -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries -> 
                                          Add Library -> Select the Java Library

Click OK and then clean-build (Project -> Clean & Project -> Build All or Ctrl+B) your project. It should be fine.
