I try to share my LibGDX project between two OS Linux and Windows on my machine. The real problem is to import as gradle project (in Intellij Idea 15 and 2016 as well) from bitbucket shared code.
My problems starts when i try to mase some changes on Windows. Intellij idea just can't import project as gradle. I have still getting error message about not found BuildTools 23.0.2. Ok. I get it, but my Andoird SDK is up to date and I certainly downloaded this buildtools.
Ohh - on my unix system everything goes well, so I think I know what I'm doing. ;)
I'm stuck with it for a while now, so if You could give me any advice I will appriciate it.
Since you say you have downloaded the required version of build tools there could be only one possible reason.
You must be having two different folders containing the android sdk. Make sure your intellij and project is configured to use the right one (where you have the required version of build tools)

I started my android development with Android Studio so I do not know much about eclipse. A client has sent me his source code for an android app that needs editing and while trying to import it I am getting the following error.
Some one please guide me to a solution, I really need it right now.
Using android studio 2.1.2 with JDK 8 installed.
This is the project.properties file
Thanks!
Ok so turns out the app was using a "pullToRefresh" library that was missing as a deliverable to me. I did not have an experience of working with external libraries yet so took me some time to identify that.
I downloaded the library and gave it the correct path in "project.properties" file. Then simply imported the project to Android studio and it is working absolutely fine
I'm using android-sdk-plugin to make Android apps with Scala using SBT. This generally works great - however when trying to import the project into IntelliJ IDEA 14.1 the imported project looks rather empty and does not recognize my source files as being part of the project.
The documentation says:
IntelliJ 14 now includes native support for importing projects from android-sdk-plugin. The process generally works well, however there are still several caveats:
The idea-sbt-plugin is still required to actually perform the build (no longer necessary as of IDEA 14.1)
Cloning and importing even the simplest example project results in an empty IDE not showing any sources at all:
I have installed both the Scala plug-in and the SBT plug-in (which I believe should no longer be required) as requested by the documentation.
What essential step am I missing?
Edit: I added the plug-in manually to project/plugins.sbt, then ran gen-android to get a project/build.scala containing object Build extends android.AutoBuild.
The essential step missing is the Android plug-in of IDEA. This might seem obvious but in contrast to plug-ins for other frameworks this one does not just provide extra goodies but is actually essential for anything Android.
Having the plug-in installed allows for selecting Android as a Project SDK (which not just selects an Android SDK but also a Java SDK to go with it).
So I've been trying to install libgdx for a few days with Eclipse and it kept telling me various things (Android ADT, Java JDK, etc.) needed to be updated, so I did that, but I kept getting the same error.
Then I decided to download an older version (0.9.8) and I used the gdx-setup-ui.jar to set up my projects. But upon opening them in the Eclipse/ADT bundle, the Android and HTML projects had errors in them involving the import statements, which I tried to solve to no avail.
This is the tutorial I've mainly tried to follow.
Does anybody have a solution for me to get it to work? I'm most familiar with Eclipse, having worked with it for Android for a while now, so I'd prefer not to switch IDEs.
Thanks in Advance
Use ADT (Android Developer Tools) instead of Eclipse. (Is the same thing anyways)

If you got errors after importing your projects on android, right click on the android project, and at android, check the version that is there.
For HTML you need to install the GWT plugin.
Recently libGDX has moved to Gradle, so you might want to look over that

Is it possible at the moment to add the Android Studio extensions to a current IntelliJ IDEA installation?
Xavier Ducrohet and Tor Norbye mentioned in their talk, that Android Studio is an extension to the Community Edition of IntelliJ IDEA and that it's not a fork. So it should be possible to add the extension.
Is there an easy way to do so and probably to revert?
They also mentioned in their talk, that Android Studio uses Gradle as default build system. This should break the builds of current modules. Is this correct?
Thanks for the answers, but I finally found the corresponding statement by JetBrains: http://blog.jetbrains.com/blog/2013/05/15/intellij-idea-is-the-base-for-android-studio-the-new-ide-for-android-developers/
You can upgrade by hitting help -> Checking for updates and then choose Early Access Program as channel in the Update settings. You should receive a notification, that version 13 is available.
This EAP version contains almost all Android Studio features except the new Project Wizard and the App Engine Cloud Endpoints, but they will come soon. The reason for the delay is the Google IO, in the future new Android Studio and IntelliJ versions will be synced (mentioned in the comments of the blog post).
I guess it will be at androidstudio but the project is currently empty.
The installation page is here: Android Studio.
From what I understand in the download page & from what they said in the conference, it's a stand alone IDE based on the intelliJ, but i'm skeptical to whether one can get it as an extension to an already installed intelliJ IDEA.
About the build - in Migrating from Eclipse page they explain how to generate Gradle build files for your projects in Eclipse and then import those projects to Android Studio. It's pretty simple and straight forward.
I posted this question on the IntelliJ community forums but it seems as if they aren't very active so I'll just post it right here on S/O. I'm new to IntelliJ and I'm switching to use it from Eclipse which was really buggy and not useful to my needs. However, I'm attempting to build an Android project in IntelliJ Idea and it is only creating a .idea folder and the src directory without any inner files in them like it should. I've got the Android-SDK properly installed and I'm using JDK 1.7 and I'm even following the directions to properly start an Android project from the IntelliJ Wiki (found here) but it still leads me to no success. It seems as if I've got the Android Support plugin already installed with my program but then again I'm not really sure. Can I get some help please so I don't have to revert back to Eclipse again? Thanks.
Try to delete Android SDK and install it again, then download at least one Platform. IDEA runs SDK tools to create Android project template, for some reason it's failing on your system.
Check if it works better with JDK 1.6.
See the screencast that I've just recorded.
