BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)

Answer 1

Hi, I had this same problem and it seems to come from the whitespaces existing in the path. Try changing the directory name to one without white spaces or change the path in the ant to something like this:

<project ... >

<property file="local.properties" />

<property name="sdk.dir" value="C:\Docume~1\user\android-sdk-windows" />

...

which is what solved my problem. Notice that Docume~1 is exactly 8 character long, I remember that was important.

I hope that helps.

Edit: I updated the answer to mark where to add the line, but unless your local.properties file contains something else apart from the definition of the sdk.dir, you can delete that line
