I have 2 computers on which I develop my app. On one of the I had a problem with adding Google play services library.
Each time I have imported the Google play services into workspace (eclipse) and then built a path to it, nothing happened and then the path was receiving error (an X symbol next to the lib include).
The solution was to set both project (Google service and My project) on the same physical driver (for example C driver).

More about the app environment
So here is the full environment list of the app:
Client side:
Android -
Client side:
Android -
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="14"
android:targetSdkVersion="18" />
I hate the built in emulator of Eclipse, so I found Genymotion emulator (try it, very fast!!!). I will talk in my next posts about this emulator.
Server side:
Java- 7th version. I am using maven platform. And my IDE is Eclipse.
DB- MySQL.
localhost- Apache Tomcat 7.0
Hosting:
I am using Heroku for my server side stuff (DataBase and server).

I hate to write documentation, then I hate myself for not writing it.
About me
So about a year and half ago I started to be interested in Web Development after a data base curse in Technion. One of the home work was to create a website with connection to data base. It was the first time I was exposed to Web Development. I really loved it, I took this to the next level. I read few books and sow a lot of videos on YouTube. Then I created few Web sites., on of them for my wife parents here is the link.
Then I started be more and more interested in app development. The easiest way to start was Android. It needed a PC not an apple machine (which is not cheap).
Again I read few books sow tutorials on the net. I have developed 2 very basic apps one is a screen flashlight app for devices without flashlight and the other one a bit more complex called simple math game. You can find the both on Google play, search for Vlad I offer and you'll find them.
After more then a year of playing with the Android platform I was ready to start working on a more serious application. I made few attempts to work with third part platforms for my back end, the one I liked the most was Parse. As I was developing I found a lot of thing that made me fill that my arms were cuffed and using Parse is not enough for me. So I decided to write my own back end and I decided to write it in Java.
