That was the workaround, not the solution :)

The solution is to place the environment variable in the ~/.profile file

Following the instruction of this response:

http://askubuntu.com/a/26411

the ~/.profile file is per-user and is read both by the graphical environment and the command line after login.

The only gotcha being that if you also has a ~/.bash_profile it will override ~/.profile

Anyway thanks for your responses.

Executing eclipse from the command line is enough to make it work.

Glad to hear you found the solution.

I (partially) reply to myself.

This was just an Environment variable issue.

I did setup the ANDROID_VUFORIA_HOME env variable in my .bashrc.

Launching Eclipse from the UI that .bashrc is not used and thus the ANDROID_VUFORIA_HOME doesn't exist.

Executing eclipse from the command line is enough to make it work.

I now have to find the better way of setting that environment on Linux so that it is used everywhere. If you have suggestions they are welcome. Thanks

I followed those instructions but for choosing the path where to place the Samples.

I don't want to place all my project in the samples directory!

And I don't want my projects to depends on relative paths OUTSIDE the VCS.

Can you help me modify that example to being able to have absolute path (using environment variables) working in Eclipse?

Maybe its just I have to add the environment variable to Eclipse somewhere.

Thanks.

ps: I'm on Linux, but I doubt it matters.

I would recommend to install the Android SDK and NDK, and the Vuforia SDk as illustrated in the Getting Started guide:

https://developer.vuforia.com/resources/sdk/android

In particular, try to install by following the suggested directory structure, as this will make your life a lot easier.

I have the same exact issue.

Last Vuforia (2.5.7), samples version 2.5.5

I modified all the imports like this:

Hi, have you tried to close / reopen Eclipse after importing the project ? Sometimes this can fix the problem.
