The import android.support.v13.app.FragmentActivity cannot be resolved

Question

I'm testing an android project (http://developer.android.com/training/animation/screen-slide.html) and I have an error in one class.

I added the jar in libs (I have both, v13 and v4), but the error still persists. Thank you.

EDIT: After changing v13 to v4, a lot of errors are disappearing remaining only 2.

private class ScreenSlidePagerAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
        public ScreenSlidePagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
            super(fm);
        }

super(fm); The constructor FragmentStatePageAdapter(FragmentManager) is undefined.

and

public Fragment getItem(int position) {
    return ScreenSlidePageFragment.create(position);
}

public Fragment getItem(int position) - the return type is incompatible with FragmentStatePageAdapter.getItem(int).

Answer 1

I was blocked on this for a while and just managed to fix it,

Try using getSupportFragmentManager() instead of getFragmentManager().

Answer 2

Change the "import android.support.v13.app.FragmentActivity" to "import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity"

For the undefined part, try this syntax:

public class ScreenSlidePagerAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
    public ScreenSlidePagerAdapter (android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager fm) {
        super(fm);
    }

and:

@Override
    public android.support.v4.app.Fragment getItem(int position) {
        return ScreenSlidePagerAdapter.create(position);
    }

Original suggestion: Have you added the libraries to your build path? Just right-click on the project and the menu item "Java Build Path" will be listed. Select this and add the libraries to your path.
