From someone who made the transition from the Eclipse Android SDK to Android Studio: use Android Studio, even if you are a hardcore eclipse user. I can't even begin to list all the benefits of Android Studio, but the most important one is probably simply that it's the new standard. — wvdz, Sep 29 '15 at 14:48
Exactly. The only reason why I see anyone using Eclipse is if they don't have around 6-8 gigs of ram. — Prasanth Louis, Sep 29 '15 at 14:52

You'll have to download the support library http://developer.android.com/tools/support-library/setup.html

You have the error AppCompat not found because your support library isn't present.

Did you reference them in Eclipse? Right click on your project and add the support library. Your project must know where the library is. – Prasanth Louis Sep 29 '15 at 15:31
