Stuck With @suppresslint("newapi") (developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity)

I'm a begginer with Android and currently stuck with the lession: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html In the part Create the Second Activit

Solution 1:

SuppressLint annotation was added in API level 16. You need to either:

set your build SDK to 16 or higher, or
copy tools/support/annotations.jar from your Android SDK to the project libs.

Solution 2:

import android.annotation.SuppressLint;

Solution 3:

I ran into the exact same problem. CTRL-SHIFT-o (organize imports) filled in the missing import for me.

Solution 4:

Your build target is NOT set to API Level 14 or higher. This is not a bug, please close this issue.

(In eclipse: Project => Properties => Android)

Solution 5:

Move your cursor over "SuppressLint", which will be underlined in red. Select the fix option "Fix project setup". From the popup list select "add archive 'annotations.jar'. Have a happy day.
