I just import an existing android project and wanted to run a gradle task from terminal.
But however I'm always getting following exception for this project:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.gradle.wrapper.GradleWrapperMain
I saw already several answers to the same problem, but they don't really help me.
Just to be sure my Android Studio is working right, I tried to open another project. There everything worked fine. And on the first look all settings of the project are the same.
I didn't installed gradle on my mac but using default gradle wrapper of the android studio instead.
Maybe any of you have a solution?
A really stupid thing, but ... maybe it helpes someone else.
The gradle wrapper folder I've got didn't contain gradle-wrapper.jar
I'm not sure it's a right solution, but I added it manually from another project and now it works.
In case nothing else helps, for a similar issue I cleaned up (i.e. deleted) the folders .gradle\caches and .gradle\wrapper\dists. Seems like something was broken in there.
My original error message was "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: worker.org.gradle.process.internal.worker.GradleWorkerMain" when trying to run the gradle wrapper.
I have been using Eclipse for about 6 months now, and I noticed that I rarely can import someone else's project into Eclipse. I get so many errors in many files. For example, I tried to import a friend's project that I know works just fine, but I get a lot of "R" errors, like Eclipse can't recognize "R" as a field, and then other weird ones like ActionBarActivity is not recognized or an entire imports like android.support.v4.app.Fragment that visually are in the library but are not being recognized by Eclipse as being there, and I check them and they are definitely marked "Is library" and added properly to the project. Anyone know why this is or how to fix? It's frustrating because to learn, sometimes you need to see someone else's app run first, then look at their code, but you can't. Thanks in advance.
My usual way of importing a project is to do File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace. Also, I have tried cleaning the project, but it doesn't work.
try this File -> Import -> Android -> Existing Android Code into WorkSpace ->then browse-> select your project->make sure the checkBox"copy the project into workSpace" is marked
Check your Build Path. In the Android Section, try using some other API level click on Apply and after your project finishes with the building workspace, again revert back to the original API and click on OK.
Also check for any Build Path errors.
So thanks to the help of everyone of this post, and others on another post, the problem was finally fixed and took several steps.
Turns out that the ActionBarActivity error had a quick fix (hover over it, you get quick fix options) of importing the appcompat_v7 library. I never chose that before, because I thought it was already installed, hence the conflict with android-support-v4.jar (meaning there were doubles of that library), but I chose to import it anyway and that error went away.
But I discovered that android-support-v4.jar was actually a component of appcompat_v7, so that was causing the "Jar mismatch!" error in the console. So I deleted android-support-v4.jar from the libs folder, and the jar mismatch went away.
Lastly, my layout files were all not being recognized, even though I knew the variable names were all correct. So the error was from when I tried to refresh my imports in the very beginning of the problem (using shift+command+O), thinking it was an import problem (which it was), but at that time, refreshing did nothing. BUT... Eclipse took away import com.laurengariepy.android.gridimagesearch.R; and replaced it with android.R;, which is what was causing all the layout errors. So once I put that com.laurengariepy.android.gridimagesearch.R; back, then all errors went away.
So the take-away to this story, is be careful with Eclipse version 22.6. The auto-import of the appcompat_v7 library will cause a lot of trouble when you try to import other people's projects, because they were likely not created in an IDE with appcompat_v7 already there.
I have been following the instructions for integrating the facebook SDK into my apps. I have succeeded in getting all the given sample apps to compile and run except for "helloFacebookSample". For this I get a compilation error:
Project 'HelloFacebookSample' is missing required Java project 'facebook'
My understanding of projects/libraries/build paths etc is a little hazy, but I can not work out why this should fail where all the others succeeded.
Here's a screen grab of my properties window for HelloFacebookSample:
I can confirm that the directory:
c:\android stuff\facebook\facebook-android-sdk-3.0\facebook\bin
contains a file facebooksdk.jar
Any ideas?
EDIT: Thrashing around some more, I just clicked on the "projects" tab that you see in the screen grab above, and saw that it says "facebook (missing)". I'm a bit confused because I thought that projects may need to rely on libraries rather than other projects... but still I have no idea how to resolve the problem. I don't seem to have a project called simply "facebook"...
Edit: thrashing around some more, I just experimentally deleted the "facebook (missing)" from the java build path and then did an "add" of "FacebookSDK"... I thought this was cluttching at straws, but to my surprise it worked!!! HelloFacebookSample compiled and ran!!! - I have no idea what's going on though and would still like an explanation.
The previous version of the Android Facebook SDK referred to the project as 'facebook'. It looks like this sample was not updated to delete the old reference, and add the new one to 'FacebookSDK'. You took the corrective steps to resolve this yourself already by modifying the Java Build Path of the project.
The problem will easily be removed by simply going to the properties of your project and right clicking it, then go to project tab, select the project which prompts missing and remove it.
Now click on project->build project->clean
Now run your project and it will surely do fine
If I make a new Android project in Ecplipse and I try, to open one of the samples from android SDK, I have got an error, look like this:
R cannot be resolved
What can I do, to be able, to run these files? I tried to delete import android.R; but nothing changed.
Thanks
First thing you might try is "clean" your project (option in the menu). If it persists:
There should be an error that stops R from being generated. Check the "problems" tab (?) in eclipse to see what that problem is, and solve that. It could be missing libs, or various other stuff.
You possibly got error in building resources.
Possible fixes:
-refresh your project (F5)
-clean you project and refresh
-see "Console" tab, sometimes the problem is shown there
-reload the Android SDK
-restart the Eclipse IDE
Check your XML-Layout files. The problem come here half a time.
If you are sure it is note your layout file, check in your java build path if the google librarys are well set. (Google APIs)
(sorry for my bad english)
Encounter this problem when trying to Build Project getting such output in console:
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject]
trouble processing "javax/net/SocketFactory.class":
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject]
Attempt to include a core VM class in something other than a core library.
It is likely that you have attempted to include the core library from a desktop
virtual machine into an application, which will most assuredly not work. If
you really intend to build a core library -- which is only appropriate as
part of creating a full virtual machine binary, as opposed to compiling an
application -- then use the "--core-library" option to suppress this error
message. If you go ahead and use "--core-library" but are in fact building
an application, then please be aware that your build will still fail at some
point; you will simply be denied the pleasure of reading this helpful error
message.
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject] 1 error; aborting
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject] Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1
I was looking for my project to use the package javax, not found, clean all also does not help. what I am doing wrong?
Update
Sorry guys, but I could not find good fix for that, I want to emphasize the fact, that i dont use SocketFactory class in my project at all! source code was not changed before this problem, and that's why i think that problem in eclipse or adt or something else, BUT if i use ant(generated by sdk) to build this project there is no problem!!!
I solve this problem by removing Eclipse, Android SDK, Eclipse workspace, and just reinstall them, after this all works fine for now.
Hope this will help someone.
I had the same problem..
This worked for me
project-->properties->java build path->libraries-> remove all including android jars
now go the project browser, right click on the project you are working on,
then android tools---> fix project properties...
do a clean and then build...
I solved the problem (at least for me).
Here's what I did:
Go to Project » Properties » Java Build Path » Libraries
Remove all except the "Android X.Y" click OK.
Go to Project » Clean » Clean projects selected below » select your project and click OK.
That did the trick for me.
Hope it works for you as well
Update: well actually I might have to retract my opinion.. the actions removed the error messages but now I am missing certain classes and methods... arggghhhh
I just restarted Eclipse, and the error didn't appear anymore!
I had the same problem,and solved it as follows:
First clean all jars; (This problem must because your some jars)
Delete the project;
Reimport project;
Make sure your sdk is right, and project select one sdk version;
(This is my issue to solve the problem) Right click your project, and select "build-path", next select "add Librarys", and add your private jars;
clean-build, the problem has fixed;
I just had the same problem and I tried all of the solutions listed here with no success (I was starting to get annoyed). Then I removed the project from the workspace and then imported it again, and there were no problems!
This happened to me this way,
I have a quite an old project which I had to start working again today. I use 'Universal Image Downloader' library for basically every project where I have to deal with lots of images. So in this old project I had the source files of 'Universal Image Downloader' included to it's 'src' path. Back then I was a newbie and slowly I started developing my own library which could handle every day simple Android development tasks very easily. Obviously I included the 'Universal Image Downloader' to this.
After dusting off the old project today the first thing I did was to reference my library to speed up the development process but as I was trying to debug I ran into the "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" over and over again. First I thought it was the support library but even after clearing all libraries and adding only mine and doing a quick 'Fix project properties' I still got it. After trying various solutions I noticed this in the console "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lcom/nostra13/universalimageloader/cache/disc/BaseDiscCache;"
It was as simple as that... I'm trying to compile a class which has already been compiled.
Solution : I just simply removed all the class files I got from 'Universal Image Downloader' library from the 'src' directory. Since my library references "Universal Image Downloader" library the old project started working just fine.
Hit same problem shown on your log when trying to run an example project which was imported into eclipse.
Additional Info: in eclipse's Problems View I see the following error:
"The project cannot be built until build path errors are resolved"
In my case the imported project find the libraries just right(by just right I mean I can see the external path to each of the android libs in this case 2 libs, android.jar and maps.jar). So no shuffling of libs in my case, but might be your problem.
I followed Spock's suggestion of cleaning the project which I had to clean multiple times until it somehow resolve its issues. After, issue was solved I had to specify an AVD for the project to run and soon after was up and running on the emulator. Also, note that my eclipse is set up to Build Automatically.
In my case I'm not missing any class files or anything after the clean as the build is properly generating them.
Regards!
I was getting the same error. My problem was that i had an android device hooked up to debug with. As soon as I unplugged it I was able to export.
The answer I found was checking the source and library build path in the project's properties. Most likely there will be a duplicate as in something being referenced in both the source and library tabs. So delete the extra in the source tab and then clean the project and you should be good to go.
Either:
javax.net.SocketLibrary is in your source code, or
javax.net.SocketLibrary is included in a JAR file in your project
Under certain conditions it gets its knickers in a twist and the best fix I've found is to remove referenced jars, clean, add them back in and then compile again.
I believe the error can be caused by including the same classes twice.
This error will also occur (and you won't be able to get rid of it by cleaning) when using classes that are not part of the Android environment.
To summarise the information in the link bimbim.in provided (well my understanding when I glanced over it)
The Android Davik VM tries to compile the jars but finds some stuff that it can't compile to .dex files
so
Just create a "lib" directory in the root of the project (where the src, bin res directories are) and add them to the build path. Project Properties... Java Build Path... Libraries.. Add JARs..
I could resolve this issue by creating a new project, looks like the some project settings were creating this issue and could not really find the root cause for that. But, dumping the existing source code onto the new project resovled this issue. If anyone has found the root cause for this problem pls do let me know.
I had the same problem and solved it as follows:
- Go to Project/Properties/Java Build Path/Libraries and remove all JARs except Android
- Do a project clean
- Add the JARs again as External JARs (first time I added them internally, so that might be the problem)
After that the error was gone.
I solved the problem by updating available packages in the Android SDK et AVD manager. No need to remove Eclipse.
Whenever the Project is having the ambitious data. This problem is caused. May be android can't able to find which one choose.
From what I understand, this same cryptic error could be caused from a wide variety of reasons. I've got "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" error too. In my case the problem was that for some reason Project -> Properties -> Java Compiler was not set to "Enable project specific settings" with proper Java 1.5 settings, but was left to defaults instead (1.6 in my case). Debug, build and test on devices/emulators worked fine, but export always failed with the above error message.
If unsure about the proper settings, create the same project on some alternative location and just copy all needed files from the old project into the new one. This fixed the issue for me.
The next problem with the same error message came from using proguard. Updating to the latest version by replacing the one that came with android sdk, fixed that.
Hope this helps
My problem was having a jar file in my src folder. Removing jars from the build path works, but only if you don't need the jar in question. For people who need the jar in question, make sure that your jar file is not in the project folder (maybe just src subtree, but I would keep it separate to test). Put it on your desktop or something and try the "Add external jar.." option. Be sure to remove the jar from the project filesystem before adding another external. Having both is what causes the problem.
I have done it as the instruction of the first answer and it works.(Linux)
I think the problem may caused by SDK or ADT updates.
I do have to clear all the lib in Java Building path and then use android tools to fix the project. After cleaning and rebuild, it works as before.
