Android Studio + Gradle issues

[ArthurSav]

I've followed every guide out there for installing android annotations in intellij(Android Studio 0.4.2) with gradle.

I did all the basic steps and i can call annotations in my activities but androidManifest.xml can't find MainActivity_

*I can't mark the production source directory as 'Source' , like most guides state since android studio has removed that capability

Any workaround?

On Android Studio, it seems you have to do it with gradle. Change your config for something like this :

android {
    compileSdkVersion 18
    buildToolsVersion "18.0.1"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 7
        targetSdkVersion 18
    }

    sourceSets {
        main {
            manifest.srcFile 'src/main/AndroidManifest.xml'
            java.srcDirs = ['src/main/java', 'YOUR_OTHER_PRODUCTION_SOURCE_FOLDER']
            resources.srcDirs = ['src/main/res']
            res.srcDirs = ['src/main/res']
        }
    }
}

Finally, it recognized the MainActivity_. Thanks a lot!

You're welcome. I should update the wiki to explain how to configure AA on Android Studio..

[ArthurSav]

Yeah, that would help a lot since most guides are outdated

I have the same problem with android-studio 0.4.3. My MainActivity_ is not recognized. I've followed this link https://github.com/excilys/androidannotations/wiki/Building-Project-Gradle but i don't understand where is the problem.

@C0nnector Is there something to configure in android-studio ?

Ok, this is how i did it:

• Go to android studio settings and uncheck ''enable annotation proccessing"(if not already). No need to use any settings there
• go to your build.gradle file, the one that is outside you project. Mine looks like this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
        // the latest version of the android-apt plugin
        classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.2'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Here you add the android-apt plugin, it will do all the work for you and help you install annotations

• Then, go to your build.gradle file that is INSIDE your project. Mine looks like this:

apply plugin: 'android'

//Make sure you add this to your code. Calls the apt-plugin
apply plugin: 'android-apt'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 19
    buildToolsVersion "19.0.1"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 10
        targetSdkVersion 19
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        packageName "com.annotations.app" //ADD YOUR PACKAGE HERE
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            runProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'
        }
    }
}


//Add this to your code
apt {
    arguments {
        resourcePackageName android.defaultConfig.packageName
        androidManifestFile variant.processResources.manifestFile
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:19.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:19.0.1'

    //android annotations
    compile 'org.androidannotations:androidannotations-api:3.0.1'
    apt 'org.androidannotations:androidannotations:3.0.1'
}

• Clean your project and rebuild it. It should work. No need to include locally stuff or mess with any android studio settings. Just add the code to your grade files and happy coding

Thx a lot ! Now it works by unchecking ''enable annotation proccessing

Hi there.
How i can get access to generated files?
For example i can not see PersonItemView_.build(context); from https://github.com/excilys/androidannotations/wiki/Adapters-and-lists
I tryed add
sourceSets { main.java.srcDirs += 'build/source/apt/' }
to build.gradle file that is inside in my project. But it not working for me.
