I am using Eclipse (Galileo) to build an android app. Stupidly, instead of letting Eclipse close normally I became impatient and forced it to close via the Windows Task Manaager.

Now, when I try to open Eclipse it builds as usual but then, at 2%, it completely stops. It always happens at one certain project file (a project I downloaded from a book), and the console says 

> "Native folder: C:\Users\DV9000\Android Related\Sams Teach Yourself Android Code\Chapter 18\libs"

Maybe it has something to do with a library? I would be happy to delete the project but I must wait until the workspace has finished building. Argh!!!

Any help appreciated.

Edit: Fixed it

I ended up deleting the files in the folder.. workspace.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources.projects

This was described in James Beninger's answer in this post

The post says "Use at own risk", so I was nervous as I had no idea what I was doing. Maybe someone else knows?

  • I encountered the similar problem as yours before. If this is the same problem, deleting the workspace folder might solve your problem. – datalost Sep 17 '11 at 02:07

    do not agree. The question is "What to do when workspace build becomes stuck?" and am telling a series of steps that actually, at least in my local environment, solved the issue. You may say it's not the better approach or the neatest one, but that's other thing. – demonz demonz Dec 18 '12 at 22:14

Have you tried going to Project->Clean and selecting the project?
