Intellij Idea stuck on reading pom.xml while importing android project

I have problem with Intellij-Idea. IDE stuck on "Looking for avalible profiles - reading pom.xml" while importing as a maven project, Intelij stuck on reading pom also on orginal project.
I have tried to build project via console mvn clean install and it... works perfectly, building project without errors but in Intellij dependency classes still are not avalible to import and shows up as red in code. I don't if that helps but I'm using mbp with OSx yosemite.
project can be found on github:
wykop offline on github
Restarting Ide/computer does not help

you can try to config this into your host file.
127.0.0.1 localhost
This maybe the maven in IDEA force to read localhost first. Then you stuck in reading pom.xml forever.

Is it that you can't go past the import window because clicking the "next" button doesn't produce any result?
if that is the issue, then it is a memory problem:
The default value assigned to Intellij importer is not enough to
handle the operation!
I have documented the solution to this issue in a similar question:
Memory problem as the answer to "Can't import the maven project in IntelliJ Idea"
P.s.: Do not ask me why as i was surprised as well that the selling company could really make such a mistake.

Android Maven Project in Eclipse with apklib

I am trying to add google play services to existing android maven project using jar and apklib. The project does compile using mvn clean install, but in Eclipse i am getting this error:
Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'value' with value '#integer/google_play_services_version'). AndroidManifest.xml /pruebas-bundle-android line 51 Android AAPT Problem
I am new with maven, so i don´t know what could cause this. I have searched for information on the error but have not found anything that could let me solve it. I am using maven 3.2.2 and m2e 1.4. This is my pom.xml

The problem seems to be due to the apklib. In Eclipse, i can see all my dependencies jar in Maven dependencies, but i don´t know how to make available the google play services apklib in Eclipse. I would appreciate any help with this.

In order to compile a project with an Android Library (APKLIB) dependency in Eclipse you need to have m2e-android installed and a "Mavenised" copy of the Android Library source code checked-out into your local Eclipse workspace.
When I say "Mavenised" I mean that the Android Library project should have a POM with coordinates (group ID, version, etc.) that match the apklib dependency in you application POM.

unable to compile Maven project after switching to ADT

I've switched from Eclipse Indigo to ADT (version 22.3.0)
I compile a project using Maven through command line:
mvn clean install android:deploy android:run
The project compiled fine on my older system and I haven't changed it at all. Now when I import it to ADT I get the "already added" error during compilation:
...

I don't have X_src files I saw on other replies to this issue. I don't include any library in my lib folder either.
This happens even with basic POM file so I guess that ADT has changed the project somehow so it includes this LineTokenizer twice (I'm not including it anywhere), is this correct?
Does anyone know how to fix this, or to find where the multiple inclusions happen?

The ADT will throw that error if its finds more than one instance of the same package but with different version number to them. Looking at your pom one of your dependencies is adding the LineTokenizer which is not up-to-date in comparison to the one supplied by the compiler. I would suggest you go to the Dependency Hierarchy using the maven POM Editor. This will allow you to select the extraneous dependency, which you can then exclude by right-clicking and selecting "Exclude Maven Artifact..." which will automatically add an <exclusions> element to your POM. This will remove the duplicate JAR from your Eclipse classpath and allow you to build you project. Do a mvn clean install after you done editing the POM though.

How to build a JAR for an android project

I am working on a small project to allow cookies to persist. I want to make the project as a JAR so other developers can use it in there project. At the moment I am able to build the project as an APKLIB however this seems unnecessary as the resources are not needed. If I change the packaging to JAR I get the follow error when building
Results :
Tests in error:
shouldAddCookie(com.doward.persistantcookietest.PersistantCookieStoreTest):
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: caught an exception while obtaining
a class file for com.doward.persistantcookies.R

If you want to just build a JAR file from .class files and no resources e.g. no XML files releating to layouts, values, colours etc then you can do so from the command line:
jar -cvf <filenameorjar.jar> <files to be included>
Example:
jar -cvf cookiepersist.jar com/*
This will create a jar file in the present working directory and include all the .class files from the directory com in the present working directory.

If you have a andorid project and you wish to use the same in another project you can make the project as a library project and refer the same in another Android project. This can include your resources also.
http://developer.android.com/tools/projects/projects-eclipse.html
You export your utility classes that do not refer to resources in android ie pure java classes. If you use eclipse you can have a look at the tutorial below
http://androiddevelopement.blogspot.in/2011/01/creating-jar-file-in-eclipse.html

Maven Android instrumentation test output

As an experiment, I am trying to use maven to build the Google Android market licensing library, sample, and test projects. Here is the pom.xml for the test project:

When I run mvn install in that project, I get the following error when the android instrumentation unit tests are run:

What I really want to know is, where can I find the junit results, and especially the stack trace for the exception?

This error appears when nothing to test (your main project not build).
the structure of your maven project must be:
your_project-parent
|--your_project
|--your_project-it
When
your_project - main project
your_project-parent - parent project
your_project-it - instrumental testing project
You must run mvn install on your_project-perent project.
Then first builds main project then test project.
