R not generated in Actionbar sherlock 4.3.1

Question

I guess many SO users might have faced this same issue, as there are many questions on SO about this. I went through all the answers and checked for all the requirements, namely,

target sdk >
jdk 1.6
cleaning , restarting, reinstalling

I cant get the R file yet. Is there anything else I should check for? Help Jake Warton!

Have you deleted the `android-support-v4.jar` file withing your project itself? It's a possibility that it's cuz of conflicting `jar` files. I'm not sure if this is the cause for the missing `R.java` file. — Karthik Balakrishnan, Jun 01 '13 at 10:42
I am only trying to get rid of the errors in Actionbarsherlock . I havent linked it to my project yet — sheetal_158, Jun 01 '13 at 10:46
I've actually had that error quite a few times. They used to get fixed randomly. Perhaps you should change your workspace? — Karthik Balakrishnan, Jun 01 '13 at 10:47
Delete the gen folder and again buid the project, it may help. — Android Killer, Jun 01 '13 at 10:48

Open SDK manager and check if your Build Tools are updated

No conclusion could be drawn from your description.

Yet here are some things that might be helpful.

1) Check Android SDK versions in the project property

2) Use "android tools->fix project property" to fix project setup

3) Project->clean

4) Have you ever changed the package name or class name within your android project? Be sure to use "android tools->rename" to do so.

@user1840899 did you update adt to rev 22?. if so follow the link i posted above. You need to make sure you have checked android private libraries in your java build path under order export tab for both library project and your project. – Raghunandan Jun 01 '13 at 11:17
I have only kept library project open ... I closed my own project. I thought i should make the library error free first – sheetal_158 Jun 01 '13 at 11:22

@Raghunandan android libraries is checked already – sheetal_158 Jun 01 '13 at 11:23
