When I try to run the application I get a message that I should choose the configuration.
When I do, I try to go with AndroidApplication, and then I get this message with an error saying module not specified. But when I try to choose a module from the dropdown, I get no options.
How can I fix this? Thank you!
I see two possible issues:
1) I don't see that you are using gradle(no gradle files shown in your 'project view', and I don't see the 'Gradle Scripts' drop down in the 'project view'.
This is an issue because it looks like this project is from Eclipse, not Android Studio. The inclusion of 'project.properties' hints at this too. Android Studio doesn't include the ant-based build system that can build a project from the Eclipse build system.
If this is the problem then close the project, and use the 'Import Project' wizard from the "Welcome to Android Studio" start window and re-import your proeject. This wizard will import the project for you and convert it to use the gradle build system.
2) If you ARE using gradle (and it just looks like you aren't)... Then this might be your problem...
In your 'settings.gradle' file (topmost level of your project...)
You should have something like
include ':<library-etc(obviously just placeholder)....>'
include ':app'
":app" here refers to the folder where your project lives. If it isn't in your 'settings.gradle' file then it won't be listed as a 'module' you can configure.
I'm trying to import roottools from here: https://code.google.com/p/roottools/ (jar file) to the Android Studio project. So far I've tried the following:
copy RootTools-javadoc-3.4.jar into libs directory under my project.
Add imports
Reorganize imports.
Rebuild project
But still I don't have "acces" to it's methods. Is it possible that is only compatible with Eclipse?
I tried using the JAR available for download and it didn't work either. To get this working, I had to download the project available at github here. Compile and run the task "makeJar" (right click on task makeJar in the gradle.build and select run).
I just added this new jar in the libs and referenced in the gradle.build file.
dependencies {
...
compile files('libs/RootTools.jar')
}
or you can add it via Project Properties.
It worked perfectly (don't forget to sync your the gradle files if you edit it manually).
In your project, choose File menu > Project Structure (there's a bug in 0.4.4 and this menu item won't have a title at all; it still works) > Modules > choose your module > Dependencies > + button > File dependency > choose your library from the file picker. That file needs to be somewhere beneath the root directory of your projet; the libs directory is fine.
Screenshot of the Project Structure dialog:
I am using Android studio and I want to add module to my project like
"action bar Sherlock" or jar files,
but when I opened the project structure there is no module or library in the menu :\
In intelij it's appearing:
So what's the problem? How can I add these modules in Android studio?
Update 19 March 2019
A new experience someone has just faced recently even though he/she did add a library module in app module, and include in Setting gradle as described below. One more thing worth trying is to make sure your app module and your library module have the same compileSdkVersion (which is in each its gradle)!
Please follow this link for more details.
Ref: Imported module in Android Studio can't find imported class
Original answer
Sometimes you use import module function, then the module does appear in Project mode but not in Android mode
So the thing works for me is to go to Setting gradle, add my module manually, and sync a gradle again:
First, create your Module. You can do that using the default Android Studio Module Wizard (File -> New -> New Module), select Android Library, give it a Name and a package name, and finish.
After that you will see that nothing happens. Open the side Gradle Projects Section (should be somewhere on the right panel)
You should see something like this:
Expand your module gradle and run the Run Configurations task.
After that refresh the content and refresh the project structure.
It should work now.
Do right mouse click on your project, then select 'Open Module Settings' - then you can add modules to your project..
Go to File->Project Structure-> Project Settings -> Modules.
Click on the green colored + and add new module. select Application module and set the content root to your project module.
Click next and then finish.
Reference
You need to add a gradle.settings file to your root project structure, after that when you "Open Module settings" you will the menu aligned to your gradle.settings. When importing a project to Android Studio, it doesn't create this file for you. Sometimes it's usually better to start a clean project and move your code there, it's usually easier to achieve.
This Might be help some:
To import module as library in your project.
File > New > Import Module
Select Valid path in Source Dir..
Tick on Import > Finish
Now Open Module setting:
Go to File > Project Structure > Modules
Modules > Dependency > click on Green Plus Sign.
Click on Module Dependency > locate module > and Implement your module.
if your module is not shown in "Choose Modules Window"
Follow the below step..
Open Settings.Gradle file
include ':app', 'Put your module name here' and sync project.
Follow Open Module Setting as above.
As for me issue was that the first line in the build.gradle file of the OpenCV library.
It was something like this:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
This refers to the fact that the imported OpenCV is an application and not a library. It exists for OpenCV above 4.1.0. So change it to:
Something like this:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'.
You might get an error in ApplicationId, comment it out in the gradle file.
Open settings.gradle and add the module as below,
include ':app',':bottomnav'
here i have added my newly imported module ':bottomnav' separated with a comma. then Sync your project. your module will be visible to dependency.
Android Studio only displays those module, which are defined in the settings.gradle file of your application.
after defining the module in settings.gradle, you will be able to add the module as dependency of your application.
I had the same problem, after switching to a branch that did not have my module, then switching back.
Clean Project -> Rebuild Project did not work for me.
But File -> Invalidate caches/restart did work.
Check settings.gradle. You'll find this : include ':app'
Just add your own module name and it should look like this :
include ':app', ':yourModuleName'
Sync.
That's it.
Had similar issue when running version control on a project in Android Studio (0.4.2). When pulling it down to a new location and importing the modules, only the "Android SDK" were showing in the Project Structure.
I removed the .idea/ folder from the version control, by adding it to .gitignore file, and did a fresh pull and imported the modules. Now all the settings appeared correctly in the Project Settings and Platform Settings for the Project Structure.
Here's what I did to solve this problem
Close Android Studio
Quick Start -> Check out from Version Control
Please go to Module settings
and choose Modules from Project Settings
then you need to Select src and gen folders and marked them as Source folders by right-click on them and select Source
First You Have To Add Name Of Your Module In setting.gradle(Project Setting) File Like This..
include ':app', ':simple-crop-image-lib'
Then You Need To Compile This Module Into build.gradle(Module app) File Like This..
implementation project(':simple-crop-image-lib')
That's all for adding module now it will be appear in android section or project section as well.
If It's till did't appear rebuild or clean your project..
Although not similar to the question above,
In my case,
The module is not visible in the android tab,
I saw it in the project tab.
After deleting the .idea/workspace.xml file, (I guess there is a problem because the unloadlist list remains here?)
When I reopened the project, it worked fine.
Additionally,
When invalidate caches (clear VCS Log caches and indexes),
It shows up for new modules, not for previously deleted modules (this only worked when deleting workspace.xml).
If you moved the modules, modify your workspace.xml file and settings.gradle file to use the new paths of your module.
Otherwise you will need to try using the import module feature.
Make sure the directory name is lower case.
First and foremost, check that all the modules are listed in your settings.gradle file.
If they are not, add them.
If they are, change something/anything in the file so that the Sync Project prompt comes on. Sync and your project should compile fine; the modules you're looking for will appear in your project structure.
in my case somehow build.gradle file deleted under app i restore it
I've a big problem with Android Studio.
I have a project that depends on two other projects (as libs).
I followed the guide Problems importing project into Android Studio regarding ActionBarSherlock for import external modules.
I opened "Project Structure", imported the module, but after that I can't see it in the Modules area.
The Modules area contains only the root module, seems it is not refreshed (this is strange). So if I try to add the module as a Dependency, Android Studio doesn't find any module!
Then, if I try to re-import the module, it says that the module/project is already registered!!
Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't know what....! I have this problem both on Windows and MacOSX.
Thanks in advance,
Federico
Look around in your .idea directory for mentions of the problematic project. I had the same problem and resolved it by deleting the entry from .idea/sbt.xml.
In ij go to menu: View -> Tool Windows-> Gradle
Right click on the problematic module and click Refresh External Project, You should see the module in project explorer.
I had a similar problem with ABS and other library imports. The 'Project Structure' interface just wouldn't show the modules. On trying to import the modules, it would prompt, "The project is already registered". Seems to be an IntelliJ/Android Studio issue. Invalidate Caches option didn't help.
Reimporting the project after some cleanup did work for me.
As a precaution, take a backup of your project and store it safely
Ensure that your project builds via gradle command-line and you have all required dependencies specified in respective build.gradle files. Try building with: gradle clean && gradle build
Close the project in Android Studio (or close Android Studio)
Delete .iml files and .idea folders from all modules and the main project
Start Android Studio and reimport the project (Import project from external model > Gradle)
you should remove the project from respective gradle/sbt/maven/ant tab (used to be on right vertical line of Android Studio/Intellij IDEA)
See this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/30442195/907576
My issue was fixed when I restart IDEA.
I just recently upgraded to the newest version of Android Studio (0.1.1), but I also used Android Studio to relocate my project to my Dropbox folder. So, I'm not exactly sure which one is causing this problem. When I build or try to run my project I get this error:
Cannot start compilation: the output path is not specified for modules
"actionbarsherlock",
"EmPubLite-EmPubLite".
Specify the output path in Configure Project.
I can't find any reference to "Configure Project" and the Project Structure option under File no longer works in this release.
Solution for Android Studio version < 1.0 :
You just have to go to your Modules settings > Project and specify a "Project compiler output"
and make your modules inherit from project. (For that go to Modules > Paths > Inherit project.
Or you can specify your output for each module if you want.
In order to do so you just need to follow this steps:
Open Project structure (F4 on one of the modules in the project explorer)
Click on Project tab on the left
Define "Project compiler output:" as YOUR_PROJECT_PATH\out (or any folder you want)
Click on Modules tab on the left
Go over all your modules and verify that under the Paths tab the Compiler output is set to "Inherit project compile output path"
I ended up re-importing the project using Gradle and it's back to normal. Very weird issue.
this is a problem that I face in case I open my phonegap project with Android Studio and Webstorm.
They are IntelliJ-based project and I guess they are both writing the files in .idea
Reimporting the project is the solution.
got same error while using studio feature to import from GitHub repository.
I deleted the whole project and .. cloned it using git terminal and imported as new project ... studio prompted to add VCS root, accepted ....everything was fine afterwards. As #lordhong prompted.
I found this:
http://www.chrisdew.com/blog/2013/07/17/android-studio-nosuchmethoderror-lazystringarraylist/
it is realy help for me.
Thus, in my case, the problem was to have two libraries:
protobuf-2.4.1.jar
and new protobuf-2.5.0.jar
it resulted error:
APK path is not specified for module “Example-Example”
To correct this, rename file protobuf-2.4.1.jar to protobuf-2.4.1.jar.disabled
mv protobuf-2.4.1.jar protobuf-2.4.1.jar.disabled
How I finally managed to fix after hours!
File -> Project Structure -> Facets -> choose module's facet -> Packaging. Enter in APK Path absolute path to apk to be created: C:\workspace\MyCompany\MyProject\myProject.apk
Press ok and run your project
