Error while adding the Android platform to a cordova project

I started a fresh Cordova project via:

cordova create project com.pro.ject Project

When I added:

cordova platform add android

I got the error:

Downloading cordova library for android...

At the same time Eclipse can successfully create phonegap project and compile them towards android but the cordova.exe doesn't recognise the projects created by Eclipse as Cordova projects.

Add both

\android-sdks\tools

and

\android-sdks\platform-tools

to your path and it works

As stated by this dude

Here is sample mistake on create new project with cordova, 

cordova create abc com.example.abc ABC

abc would same with com.example.abc, if the project will be created no error, when you build app would show strange error like above. hope this can help someone.
