  <p>I recently installed the latest Android SDK in a new eclipse set up on a new machine.  When I brought over an old project in several places I got a syntax error concerning @Override stating "method suchandsuch of type suchandsuch must override a superclass method".  These items were fixed by removing @Override (which I don't think is correct).</p>
  
  <p>I just made my first new project with my new setup and the initial untouched code is giving this error which has me confused.</p>
  
  <pre><code>package com.geeksonhugs.whenimclose;
  
  import android.content.Intent;
  import android.os.Bundle;
  import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
  import android.support.v4.app.NavUtils;
  import android.view.MenuItem;
  
  public class ItemListActivity extends FragmentActivity
          implements ItemListFragment.Callbacks {
  
      private boolean mTwoPane;
  
      @Override
      public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
          setContentView(R.layout.activity_item_list);
  
          if (findViewById(R.id.item_detail_container) != null) {
              mTwoPane = true;
              ((ItemListFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
                      .findFragmentById(R.id.item_list))
                      .setActivateOnItemClick(true);
          }
      }
  
      @Override
      public void onItemSelected(String id) {
          if (mTwoPane) {
              Bundle arguments = new Bundle();
              arguments.putString(ItemDetailFragment.ARG_ITEM_ID, id);
              ItemDetailFragment fragment = new ItemDetailFragment();
              fragment.setArguments(arguments);
              getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                      .replace(R.id.item_detail_container, fragment)
                      .commit();
  
          } else {
              Intent detailIntent = new Intent(this, ItemDetailActivity.class);
              detailIntent.putExtra(ItemDetailFragment.ARG_ITEM_ID, id);
              startActivity(detailIntent);
          }
      }
  }

  <p>The compiler accepts @Override before onCreate but gives the error with onItemSelected.  Can someone please clarify what is going on for me please?  Again this syntax error does not occur in prior versions?</p>
