Android Eclipse - Cannot see annotation processing option

Question

I am unable to fine the option to set annotation processing in my Eclipse preferences.

Not sure since when am I getting this problem but surely it has started to occur after I updated eclipse last. I also tried pasting the annotations.jar file in tools/support folder but to no good.

Kindly help.

TIA

Answer 1

Installing

Programming Languages > Eclipse Java Development Tools

may enable it again.

Answer 2

It seems Google removed the Annotation Processor option from project properties in the ADT bundle. We are tracking the problem in this AndroidAnnotations issue. The current workaround for this is not installing the bundle, but downloading a standalone Eclipse distribution and adding the ADT plugin to that.
