Change android target version with eclipse

I was working on android 4.2 (API 17), but I am testing with a device in Android 4.1 (API 16). So I changed The minSdkVersion et the target sdk by going right clicking on the project then selecting properties > Android and changed the Target Name to Android 4.1. After that I changed the two lines in my manifest file :

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="16"
    android:targetSdkVersion="17" />

But after that I built my project (Project > Clean) and restarted Eclipse, I got errors in my projects that tells me that the R file cannot be resolved to a variable, that I didn't have before.

Is it because I changed the manifest file ? Anybody has an idea how to fix this ? Did I do something wrong ?

In my case, it was resolved by upgrading the ADT plugin (Eclipse > Help > Install New Software). After the upgrade/restart and obligatory Project > Clean, I re-built the library projects successfully.
