Question

I am having the same issues as in This question: Android unit test using ant with library project

I tried both methods that was suggested in the question, but on the r18 release of the android tools, I am getting:

NTServicesTest/build.xml:110: Reference jar.libs.ref not found. 

I am not sure if it’s me who have failed at following the recipe for the workaround for the answers to the original question, or if something has changed in r18 of the android tools.

my folder setup is on proj folder that contains..:

NTServices ,
NTServicesTest ,
NTServicesTestApp

For the workaround of @Snicolas
I modified my NTServicesTest/project.properties to look like this:

# Project target.
target=android-15
tested.android.library.reference.1=../NTServices

And my NTServicesTest/build.xml looks like this : (from right under the version tag )

 <import file="${sdk.dir}/tools/ant/build.xml" />

Answer 1

Just rename classpathref=”jar.libs.ref” to classpathref=”project.libraries.jars”.
