I am trying to build with maven our android existing project that has
been build with eclipse. I had to do a lot of changes and tinkering
around pom.xml files.
Project is dependent on other projects, so they have their own pom.xml
files.
I was able to individually compile these projects with their pom.xml's
but the master project I am getting this error:
cannot find symbol: class R
package R does not exist
I am using intellij12. The master pom.xml is given below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

There are few things I want to mention about this I am only sure about
the dependencies part, the plugin part is something I pasted from other
sample projects and this is where I think the trouble is. Also ignore
the parent part I think it has no use for me.
Based on the error seems like project is not building in the correct
order, first it needs to build/compile R and then so on, right? Pointers
in right direction are appreciated.
