OK - done it.
Eclipse it is from now on.
Pity about Netbeans, as I had got quite used to it.

Tell me again why you aren't using NetBeans, then? It's not like
anyone's *forcing* you to use Eclipse.

I just brought up a NetBeans Android project in twenty minutes from
looking up the instructions to new project up and running, including
downloading the plugin.

Developing in Other IDEs. You can then return to this tutorial and
ignore anything about Eclipse."


You heard the man. He's complained about Eclipse. He expressed a preference
for NetBeans. Don't you want to help him have what he wants? Why not give
him the information that fulfills his preference and let him decide?
