I downloaded android music sources to learn from. Essentially, I want to explore it in Eclipse. I've tried importing android project - it doesn't seem to find any projects in the folder which obviously contains one. When I had tried to new project with existing source it said The application name is shown in the PlayStore, as well in the Manage Application list in Settings.
Any suggestions ?
The project exists, but it is not an Eclipse project. you shouldn't import it, you should do :
New project > Android > Android project from from existing code and point to your folder

I have been trying to understand how to incorporate a sample app from the LeadBolt SDK. LeadBolt is a mobile/web advertising service.
http://help.leadbolt.com/android-integration-guide/
I've downlaoded their SDK and I got an executable and a sample application, but when I open up the folder that has the .idea, lib, and src folders as my project, it doesnt automatically compile. I get errors in the XML that says that the URI is not recognized and that the version codes are not reconized in the manifest.
I want to be able to import sample apps but I'm failing on the developer side.
I managed to make it compile for me. Heres what I did:
1) In android studio, go to file -> new -> import project
2) imported the LeadBoltSampleApp folder that was already unzipped
3) Gradle needed to be updated, in the 'app' box it asked to update the 'missing platforms'
(this video) helped with step 3
There is sample code on the developer site that i wish to run.
When I import as a new Android Studio project, I'm not given any ability to run the code (disabled buttons).
I attempted to copy the source files over into the shell of a new project, but i than got errors that didn't make sense. reference to duplicate declarations in source files that had nothing relating inside them.
Is there an idiots guide on how to properly use android studio, or is it just this difficult?
In order to correctly import the project, you should follow the Samples guide as found in the developer docs.
To import a downloaded project:
Unpack the downloaded project package.
In Android Studio, chose File >
Import Project and select the root folder of the unpacked project.
Android Studio may ask you to choose the type of project you are
importing.
If this is the case, make sure to choose Import project
from external model and select the Gradle option.
Alternatively, if the Gradle option does not work, I would attempt to use the Eclipse option.
Open .gradle file when you import the project, not the folder of the proyect.
I have imported OpenCV and am able to run all the sample codes. I have to now work on an already built app. How do I import this project? This app uses OpenCV.
EDIT: I am a beginner to opencv for android. The OpenCV tutorials tell me how to create a new project, not how to import it.
If the project is already from another eclipse and the versions are compatible, you can move the project folder into the workspace folder on the file system, copy/paste into the project explorer (Java Perspective) or use the 'Import > File System' function.
If the project is a bunch of raw project files, you can use the 'File > Import..' function in eclipse, choose '..Existing Project..'
Then you should be all set.
If you're starting anew with just .java files and android xml etc. You'll then need to include the the OpenCV project in the workspace and add the project to your app's project, as listed here from OpenCV's documentation of "Using the Android Binary Packages":
"Do the right mouse click on your app in Package Explorer, go to Properties ‣ Android ‣ Library ‣ Add "
Here's the link for that:
http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/android_binary_package/android_binary_package.html
import it to the workspace.AS usually you import any other project.If there is any error share the error.I think this is the correct way.
I have been looking all over the place for over an hour for explanation on how to open an existing project and followed the step but it just doesn't work!
If I do File -> Import -> Android -> Existing android code into work space, I get a window that allows me to browse for my project but then when i select the folder and click ok I just can't do anything else...It says cannot import BeginerApp because the project is in use...but there's nothing open!?! Am I supposed to select the file containing everything of my project as the root directory?
Honestly I don't understand anything of what is going on and I'm completely new to android programming. I was trying to do the first training tutorial on the android developement website and I closed the app, now i want to open it so i can test it on my phone... sigh, It's a rough start into the world of Android programming.
Well, If I understand you right in the past you imported the same project with the "same" .Project file.
To make to import the duplicated of old project you imported in, go to you new Project and edit .Project file:
<projectDescription>
<name>PutHereYourNewName</name>
....
Eclipse before import checks this file for projectDescription name and even if you changed Project folder, Eclipse feels it like you try to import the same project till you change above mentioned file.
After, it should work
Check if a project folder exists on disk in the workspace folder already. in this case, the project files are not visible in the eclipse window, but they are not allowed to be copied in workspace because it is still there on disk.
If you still face problems, in the worse case create a new workspace, and then import your project.
They Say "It will create a folder CSipSimple where source code from CSipSimple and all svn dependancies has been gathered. CSipSimple also now depends on the ActionBarSherlock library. So the second line also checkout the ActionBarSherlock copy for current csipsimple version. When you'll import to Eclipse (if you do), you have to import ActionBarSherlock as well. "
I got this line from CSipSimple . I cant import ActionBarSherlock file on eclipse.
It can't be import because it doesn't have any projects , it showing .
I need this file so please help me out to debug it . If any one knows full installing steps of this CsipSimple build application then please help me .
I am using Linux OS platform.
you should join de developer google group (http://groups.google.com/group/csipsimple-dev/).
Indeed, I do not commit the eclipse project files on the actionbarsherlock project. So you have to create a new android project and import from the folder you checked out just before.
As target android api select android 13 (it's the current of ActionBarSherlock) and tell that it is an android library.
If everything goes well you should see ActionBarSherlock project in your eclipse projects. From this point, if you built the native library previously and it succeeded you should be able to run the project.
1) check out the project - not a android project yet
2) copy the project folder to some other place
3) delete the project you checked out in no(1) entirely (need to check the box in dialog)
4) create new project -> select 'Android Project' -> select 'create project from existing source'
-> browse the place you copied
5) now you will see android project created.
I checked out.
Just check out and copy the project to some other place.
and in 'Create New Project' window, select 'create from existing source' and select your copied folder.
