I have develop one library project using android studio [with gradle]. Now i want to integrate my library project in my main project.
I have successfully integrate this project in android studio using maven. But i don't know how to integrate this library project with my main project using eclise IDE. I have search many times in google as well stackoverflow but not found any solution.
So please give me any hint or solution.
Hi As you may know android studio structure is different from eclipse project. if you want to move studio to eclipse there are lots gradle dependencies files generated by android studio, that eclipse never used this files & even eclipse can not understand these all files.
The simplest way is just create the android project in eclipse and copy all your resources directory files( inside you values directory & drawable if you used ) and source files with the keeping the package structure you have in library project & mark the project as library in your project-> properties under the android tab checked the project as library.
In short you have to manually convert the project in eclipse there is not other options for directly convert the studio project in to eclipse.
Thank you.
You can to link aar library as separate project(type this project as library) and make dependence into main project.

I have an Android App set up as an eclipse project and associated library projects. I create jars from these library projects and share them with customers and/or plug in into my app's libs folder.
Now, I am moving my entire project to Android Studio and I notice that the library projects in Android Studio create .aar files by default.
I am not sure if it will be an easy task to request customers to start using .aar, so I want to stick with .jar files.
I was wondering if there are any detailed tutorials for creating .jar files from an Android Studio project. Any help would be appreciated :)
my tries
click right at my project , choose Export ---> android
---> Generate Gradle build files
I stop in this point , I cant force overriding, any one know the reason
The Eclipse IDE uses a different file structure for their android projects, as opposed to the files structure of the projects created through Android Studio. Regardless of the Gradle builds and so on.
Your best bet would be to create a new Android Project based on the specifications of your Eclipse project. And migrate the source code as required. As far as the libraries are concerned, you can add them directly to the Android Project.
I also found that this might be useful for your current situation. Help on Migrating from Eclipse to Android Studio (Projects).
Hope this helps.
I've an old project developed using Eclipse. Now, I want to use Android Studio to continue to development (for the sake of better IDE), but I don't want to use Gradle.
I was able to build/debug the project when I open the legacy project using Android Studio, but I find no way to update an existing jar in the libs folder.
What I found on the interweb is that I need to use Gradle, but I don't even have a Gradle file right now, so, it is possible to replace a newer version of jar in libs folder without using Gradle?
I am currently using Android Stuio Beta 0.8.1 an its working fine but I am having an issue with library projects are handled.
In Eclipse, I create an Android project which is my app project and another project which is my Library project. From my App project, I reference my Library Project and I can modify the library project and the changes are automatically built into the app project.
I am trying to do the same thing with Android studio but am having a problem.
The problem is I create my Library project in Android Studio and my App Project in Android Studio.
From my app project I go File > Import Module and point to my library project and it then copies all of the source code from my library project into my apps project structure.
From my app project I then project structure and select module dependency of the module I have just imported.
The problem is though, as it copies all of the source from my library project into my app project, if I modify the code that's imported into the app project structure, then the library project isn't updated, and if I update the library project code, the app referencing the library doesn't see the change.
My library is being referenced by multiple projects, and at the moment if I change, librar projects, the apps continue to use the old code, so I am having to copy/paste the source code into the apps project stucture and re-build.
Am I missing something basic or is it just Android Studio isn't really working too well witih libraries so copy/paste is my only option for the time being.
Because libraries must live within the main project, it's difficult to share them across projects. If that's your usage, the library should be its own project that you publish to maven locally. After that, you can declare it as a dependency similar to any other. Keep in mind that the version number of the library becomes important; when you make changes to the library, be sure to publish with a new version number.
How can I create an Android library project in NetBeans IDE? The build target would be a JAR for use in another Android project. I've seen the documentation at http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/projects/projects-eclipse.html for creating a library project in Eclipse, but I'm using NetBeans. I do not see an isLibrary property available in the properties for the Android project. If there is not a built-in way to accomplish this, how might I go about manually setting up an Android library project? Forgive me if this is a thick question.
Netbeans is using the standard android project layout (see the features site) and the standard ant-based build. This means that there is a project.properties file in the project's root. A library project has android.library=true in it, along with the android target version (and eventually other android library references). This file can be viewed and opened under Important Files. When cleaning and rebuilding, Netbeans behaves as if this is a lib project (does not create apk etc.)
Otherwise, you could use the SDK android tool (located in $SDK/tools) to generate the lib project on the cmdline and then try to import it into Netbeans somehow.
