I’m trying to import an android project into Eclipse (from Git, but I don’t think it’s relevant), and I can’t run or compile it because I get these errors:
Android requires compiler compliance level 5.0. Please fix project properties. Serval-Video-Discovery line 1 Android ADT Problem
Project 'Serval-Video-Discovery' is missing required source folder: 'gen' Serval-Video-Discovery Build path Build Path Problem
I think the first one isn’t really a big problem, even if I don’t really understand the warning.
The funny thing is that the “gen” folder exists on the filesystem; furthermore, I can’t try to create it because it already exists !
What should I do to solve this issue?
Here is the GitHub repo I’m trying to import from: https://github.com/rbochet/Serval-Video-Discovery
Package Explorer -> Right click the project -> "Android Tools" -> "Fix Project Properties"
Project -> Clean
Fixes without having to restart eclipse

I had the same problem but solved in the following way
Package Explorer -> Right click the project -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Source -> your project name/gen -> click on Remove -> Click on Add Folder -> check gen -> Ok -> Ok
Answer：
Just right click and delete the gen directory from eclipse. If not, try the fix project properties above.
Answer：
If gen folder is missing under project after importing an existing project into workplace, just create a gen folder under project and that will fix the above error.
