Android Studio 0.8.2 : How to add local Project Library? - android

i am a android app developer and converting myself from Eclipse to Android Studio.
Now i get a difficulty to add library project into another project.
What i can do in Eclipse is very clear:
1.Set project B as library Project (right click->properties->android->is Library)
2.Add this library into Project A (right click->Properties->android->add...->choose Project B->OK
But how can i execute such behavior in AS?
I read article
Create a standalone library with Android Studio
and Create Project A as Library in AS.
Now i create Project B in AS with module BApp,
how can i add Library Project A into B/BApp?
The reason i would not like to copy files of Project A to Project B is, I would also use Library Project A in my many other Project. I dont think it is a good idea that make a hard copy to each Project while i will always update Library A in local.
Appreciation for the Help!

You have to go to Project Structure and add the library as a new module. To do this click on the + icon and select Import Existing Project, once the module is imported go to the Dependencies tab, click on the + icon and select Module Dependency and click on your library.

Open AppCompactv7 and add as library on your project
The problem is with your appcompat_v7 project. Delete the existing project one in the workspace and re-import it from
\sdk\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat
After that try cleaning the project.
Project -> select Clean -> select the project.
1 - Make sure library project(appcompat_v7) is open & is proper referenced (added as library) in your application project.To do this follow this steps: right click in your project -> "Properties - Android - Add"
2 - Delete android-support-v4.jar from your project's libs folder(if jar is present).
3 - Appcompat_v7 must have android-support-v4.jar & android-support-v7-appcompat.jar inside it's libs folder. (If jars are not present copy them from /sdk/extras/android/support/v7/appcompat/libs folder of your installed android sdk location)
4- Check whether ActionBarActivity is properly imported. (In your case this is right)
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
Here is a good example of how to create a project in Eclipse using v7 Support Library
Finally because you are a beginner I'll recommend you to use Android Studio as it is the official environment for developing for Android. Configuring the SDK can be quite a pain in Eclipse. You can also take advantage of the Gradle dependency system and simply specify which libraries you would like to use and Android Studio will automatically fetch the jars from online remotes as required. I think its the future of Android Application Development.

Building a project on Eclipse didn't output any bin/*.jar file

downloaded the following open source.
https://github.com/umano/AndroidSlidingUpPanel
Import /library to Eclipse as a Existing Android Code.
There's no error after building the project.
I would like to add the library to my developing app. So I guess I have to build it successfully with library.jar being output to /bin. Or is there other way to make dependency between them ?
You should set the AndroidSlidingUpPanel project as library project. After doing that, in eclipse, right click on your project in which you want to add the AndroidSlidingUpPanel project and go to properties. Then go to android section. In the bottom, click on add Library and select the project. You don't need to add jar manually, eclipse will do that for you.

Adding library project to PagerSlidingTabStrip

I'm trying to use
Android PagerSlidingTabStrip v1.0.1library
in my project but, after I import the project as existing code in work space I get to project
the Mainactivity and library and and the library is a dependency to the Mainactivity
but it seems that library project doesn't recognized as local library
so what i did is
1- I tried to make a jar file called library.jar from the library project
and I imported as a external jar so that fixed my import but when I try to use PagerSlidingTabStrip object it says missing reference
and beside that there is res folder couldn't be loaded .
2- I follow this How to add a Library Project to a android project
and I did like what the accepted answer said but it still didn't work for me .
This is how I added the library project
That what I got in project libraries
I tried to use this dependency in build.gradle
dependencies {
compile 'com.astuetz:pagerslidingtabstrip:1.0.1'
}
but it didn't work
i added before sherlock to eclipse so when i added it inside the root folder
a bin folder created and inside it there are a jar file and that's
doesn't happen with library so i think here is the problem
any help?
From properties window select option android scroll down, below library heading click the add button and select library project.
I was facing the same issue but soon i came to know that there was support library missing from Library project.
Add support library and clean build the library project and then add it in your project
Do the following:
File->New->Other
Select Android Project
Select "Create Project from existing source"
Click "Browse..." button and navigate to "PagerSlidingTabStrip-master" folder which you have downloaded from https://github.com/astuetz/PagerSlidingTabStrip
Check "library"! (Uncheck "sample"). Make sure "Copy to Workspace" is checked as well.
Click Finish. Now "library" is project in your workspace.
Right-click on your project -> Properties
In Android -> Library section, click "Add"
Select recently added "library" project, click Ok and you're all set.

Including External Library in Android project

I am new to android I thought of using this Opensource library but I don't know how to download it and include it in my project since there is not .jar file.
Set the library up as an Android library:
Right-click on the library project
Select Properties
Go to the Android tab
Mark the project as the library
Then set your application to use the library:
Right-click on the library project
Select Properties
Go to the Android tab
Add a library at the bottom
That way, you will now be using the library when working on your app.
