How to add google-play-services jar project dependency so my project will run and present map

Question

I have following problem  I try to use SupportMapFragment from com google android gms maps SupportMapFragment which is part of Google Maps Android API v2   My first approach was to add project to Eclipse from android-sdk extras google google play services libproject google-play-services lib location and set it as referenced project in Properties -  Project References menu of MyApp  I also added project to Java Build Path   Projects  Error indicators disappeared from Eclipse but when I tried to run my app I got NoClassDefFoundError exception    So my second approach was to copy jar file from google-play-services lib libs to my project s libs directory  MyApp succesfully started but in LogCat I can see dead code     something message so I guess that jar file has to be referenced in another way    And now I am confused and tired   Maybe someone more experienced in Android can tell me what should I do

What i have done is that import a new project into eclipse workspace, and that path of that was be

android-sdk-macosx/extras/google/google_play_services/libproject/google-play-services_lib

and add as library in your project.. that it .. simple!! you might require to add support library in your project.

Some of the solutions described here did not work for me  Others did  however they produced  warnings on runtime and javadoc was still not linked  After some experimenting  I managed to solve this  The steps are    Install the Google Play Services as recommended on Android Developers  Set up your project as recommended on Android Developers  If you followed 1  and 2   you should see two projects in your workspace  your project and google-play-services lib project  Copy the docs folder which contains the javadoc from  lt android-sdk gt  extras google google play services  to libs folder of your project  Copy google-play-services jar from  lt android-sdk gt  extras google google play services libproject google-play-services lib libs to  libs  folder of your project  In google-play-services lib project  edit libs google-play-services jar properties   The  lt path gt  in doc  lt path gt  should point to the subfolder reference of the folder docs  which you created in step 3  In Eclipse  do Project   Clean  Done  javadoc is now linked

The quick start guide that keyboardsurfer references will work if you need to get your project to build properly  but it leaves you with a dummy google-play-services project in your Eclipse workspace  and it doesn t properly link Eclipse to the Google Play Services Javadocs   Here s what I did instead    Install the Google Play Services SDK using the instructions in the Android Maps V2 Quick Start referenced above  or the instructions to Setup Google Play Services SDK  but do not follow the instructions to add Google Play Services into your project  Right click on the project in the Package Explorer  select Properties to open the properties for your project   Only if you already followed the instructions in the quick start guide   Remove the dependency on the google-play-services project     Click on the Android category and remove the reference to the google-play-services project  Click on the Java Build Path category  then the Projects tab and remove the reference to the google-play-services project   Click on the Java Build Path category  then the Libraries tab  Click Add External JARs    and select the google-play-services jar file  This should be in  Your ADT directory  sdk extras google google play services libproject google-play-services lib libs  Click on the arrow next to the new google-play-services jar entry  and select the Javadoc Location item  Click Edit    and select the folder containing the Google Play Services Javadocs  This should be in  Your ADT directory  sdk extras google google play services docs reference  Still in the Java Build Path category  click on the Order and Export tab  Check the box next to the google-play-services jar entry  Click OK to save your project properties    Your project should now have access to the Google Play Services library  and the Javadocs should display properly in Eclipse
