I run Fedora 7 (64 bit), Eclipse 3.3.1.1, and Android SDK m5-rc14_linux-x86. I installed the Android SDK in early February. The Eclipse install had been present for some time before that, and the Java 6 install dates from last November. Other than Eclipse instability apparently introduced by the Android extensions (Eclipse crashes both with and without error popups), this combination works OK. This is the development environment in which the company's contest submission was built.
As someone else asked, which version of Java are you running? The command "java -version" I'm running returns the following. java version "1.6.0_03" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_03-b05, mixed mode) And in Eclipse that is the version of Java configured as the default, i.e., Windows->Preferences->Installed JREs shows a check mark next to the JRE showing the path to the install directory "/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03". I suggest you create a new Android project without source code, create an application by copying and pasting from one of the examples, i.e., from known good source code, and seeing if the project compiles and runs. If this succeeds, your Java + Eclipse + Android installation succeeded. Until this very simple test works, I wouldn't try anything more complex such as importing existing code or creating a project from existing code.
