Android/Eclipse: How to create a new project without appcompat_v7

Question

Everytime I create an android project in eclipse it starts with an error "no resources found that matches the given name: attr xxx", in addition to a appcompat_v7 added as a project.

I found a way to resolve this issue in my current app by totally removing the ActionBar, avoiding using less than API 11, modifying all XML files and removing the created appcompat_v7 project. This solution, however, is tedious and must be done everytime I need to create, even, a simple a project.

My question is not "what is appcompat_v7", my question is how to create project without having this error everytime ?

Answer 1

Why you want to create a project without appcompat_v7 ?. It gives you compatibility for API's under 11, so your app will work in old devices...

If anyway you want to create a project without it, in Eclipse:

Create a new Android Application Project and uncheck Create activity in step two (Configure project).
