"Project has no default.properties file! Edit the project properties to set one."error on adding existing phonegap project into workspace

I was facing the this issue  when i tried to add an existing Phonegap project into another workspace.

Reason:

Android Tools automatically generate the file default.properties which tells about target API level.

But when the project is added into the another workspace this file does not gets created.

Resolution:

Create a properties file default.properties directly under the Phonegap project directory.

Mention the target API level in it.

(ex: If the target API that you want to use is 8,then add the following code in the default.properties file)

 target=android-8
