Setup of Wiktionary (Simplified) Android project

Looks like my previous instrutions for Api Demos don't apply for the new Simplewiktionary project for Android.

Even File->Import and other variations are failing. I discovered that something new and more specific was required. You might be wondering why I'm even bothering to blog this. Well, it seems that there are many wrong ways to get these sample projects into Eclipse. It seems that the 'art' is find the few right ways to do this.

1. Start Eclipse

2. File->New->Project->Android->Android Project

3. Click on the 'next' button

4. Choose your build target

5. Uncheck the 'Create Activity' checkbox

6. Specify the Project Name as 'WiktionarySimple'

7. Uncheck the 'Use default location' checkbox

8. Click on the 'Browse' of the Location textbox and go to the WiktionarySimple directory created by unzipping latest_samples.zip in the directory of your choice.

9. In the contents area, select the radio button 'Create project from existing source'

10. In the properties area, set the application name to 'WiktionarySimple'

11. Click the 'Finish' button

12. If these steps were followed, when Eclipse is done updating the workspace, the WiktionarySimple project will be compiled and the R.java file will be generated in the project.
