I am trying to create a new project from existing source code. I keep getting the following error: "Invalid Project Description", project path "overlaps the location of another project" with the same name. The reason is that I created that project from the source code before, but then I deleted that project and deleted its whole directory, before adding the source code directory again. I tried everything like cleaning and restarting, but nothing worked. I looked in my workspace directory, but there are no traces for the old project. There are several questions around this problem such as this Attempting Android Notepad Tutorial - Exercise 1 - More problems, but none of the answers worked for me!

我也一直在为类似的问题而绞尽脑汁。唯一有帮助的就是遵循这篇文章中的步骤。

今天我意外地解决了这个问题:

以下2个步骤可能不涉及,但不确定:

从(Eclipse菜单)调用*“/Window/Android SDK Manager”并更新a)“Android SDK Tools”“Android SDK平台工具”包 从Eclipse菜单“/Help/Check for Updates”调用并更新Eclipse。重新启动Eclipse。

以下步骤是必要的:

From eclipse menu "/File/Import/Android/Existing Android Code Into Workspace" Browse and select problematic project/or problematic projectS parent directory. Check "Copy projects into workspace". Check "Add projects into working sets". Press finish. [Optional scenario]: If project(s) and their containing folders have been renamed with the fully qualified package names then simply click on project node parent (where you see project package name instead of project's old name) in Eclipse and rename project with old name. Eclipse will rename folder too.

附注:在日蚀朱诺号上测试过。

Edit: Many times have passed since this answer and new Eclipse and Android SDK arrived. They have no much more problems during importing existing projects. The only thing one has to consider before importing is to move project folders(those ones one is willing to import) outside of eclipse workspace dir and then check checkboxes ("copy projects into working sets", "add projects into wokring sets") in import wizard dialog. Also I recommend doing this with latest Android SDK because it no more imports projects with dummy names and does not rename folders as it did in some custom cases.

而不是从Android ->现有的Android代码导入工作空间,你必须使用通用->现有的项目到工作空间。这可能是一个解决方案。

如果你希望以以下方式从现有源代码打开一个新项目:

File -> Import -> General -> Existing Project into Workspace

你仍然有“无效的项目描述”的信息。 我只要进去就能解出来

File -> Switch Workspace

选择一个最近的工作场所。

我自己也在这个问题上挣扎了一段时间,我认为发生这种情况的原因是因为(对于Android)有两种方法将项目导入到工作区

1)文件>导入>General>现有项目到工作区 2)文件>导入>Android>现有代码到工作区

这里描述的错误与方法2有关。

对于方法1),如果项目已经在工作区中,只要取消选中“将项目复制到工作区”框,就不会出现重叠问题。

编辑: 还有第三种方法,在我最初的文章中没有提到。

3)文件>新的>其他>Android>现有的Android项目到工作区
