ndk path can be set manually, but not automatically

I'm trying to setup ndk to work with eclipse, but getting this error message Program "/ndk-build.cmd" is not found in PATH

Following other posts (ndk-build not found in Path , Set Build path in Eclipse for ndk program) I tried to set the NDK folder in preferences -> android -> NDK, but it did't work.

Next I tried to manually set the NDK folder in Build Path->Configure Build Path -> C/C++ Build->Builder Setting Tab -> ndk-build path for one specific project, and it worked, but I need to repeat this for all my projects one at a time.

Any idea how to set the path correctly?

Easiest Method which worked for me is.

Goto the Project Properties
Click on C/C++ Build (An other list will open)
Click on the Environment from the list
Now click on Add

Here you have to Put 2 values
Put Name as NDKROOT
In Value put PATH TO THE NDK FOLDER
Then Click OK

enter image description here

That's It

I've also suffered a lot with configuring the NDK in my eclipse. At last, this procedure was working for me (with eclipse helios):

  1. Download Eclipse NDK plugin and NDK and configure it by

    eclipse > windows > preference > android > NDK > configure NDK location

  2. Import a project which has native C++ codes and require NDK. After importing, it will say Program "/ndk-build.cmd" is not found in PATH

  3. right click on the project, go to

    new > other > C/C++ > convert to C/C++ > toolchains > android GCC > click finish

  4. Right click on the project and go to project property.

    Property > C++ build > Environment

    Create a variable named NDK-BUILD with your NDK location

    Property > C++ build > Environment

    In Builder Settings: put Build Command: ${NDK-BUILD}/ndk-build.cmd

    In behavior: unchecked Clean

    Go to Property > C/C++ general > Paths & symbols > Language > GNU C++ add a variable with path: ${NDK-BUILD}\platforms\android-9\arch-arm\usr\include

Press apply & ok
