Create folder in Android View - android-studio

I want create a folder for java source code that is visible in the "Android" view. This is not an asset or layout or res folder. Just a simple folder that becomes visible and accessible.
I know how to create a new folder but it's only visible in the "Project" view. I never see it in the "Android" view.

In java, folders are called packages. You can create a folder for your source code in the java folder by right clicking it and selecting new>Package.
It is important to note that classes in different packages can only access public members.

"Layout" folder not appearing in "res" folder

Recently I installed android studio and wanted to create a map, selected java language instead of kotlin.
As I was following a guide on internet,
https://developers.arcgis.com/android/latest/guide/install-and-set-up.htm
it said to select "Main_activity.xml" in res->layout.
But I couldn't find any layout folder.
Here's the image of my project view:Android Project View
Thank You
From your "Android Project View"
In Java folder, you can see three "com.ecample.hackathon" folders, among these three folders first one is blank, when we create any Activity in our project, java class show at here, and xml file show in layout folder(parent is res folder).
So now, you have to create Activity.
Steps:
1) Right click on this empty folder "com.ecample.hackathon"
2) Select New
3) Than Select Activity
4) As per your choice you can select the option.
Ex. Select "Empty Activity
Name as according your use.
You can get java and xml file in proper place.
Hope this help you.

Can't create layout folder in Android Studio by new Android Resource Directory (Error : enter or select a qualifier)

Step 1 : Right click on res folder, choose New > Android Resource Directory
Step 2 : Choose layout in resource type, then click OK
Result : Error in name : enter or select a qualifier
It's not happen with menu type. Do I missing something?
I have to create directory instead
It's an old question but whoever is having the same problem might find this helpful. Here's another way to create an android resource directory in the layout folder.
Right click res folder
Click new and the scroll all the way down to XML with the icon
Click that and leave everything as it is
= Click finish.
Also, make sure to refactor and rename(whatever you like) the XML file that gets generated automatically after creating the resource folder.
Yeah, AS 3.0+ seems to do that to me as well.
But there really shouldn't be a difference between a new Android Resource Directory and just a new (regular) Directory if you don't actually use any qualifiers. It's still just a directory with a different name depending on the qualifier(s). So, you can safely choose new Directory and move along.
And for the sake of it, you can choose new Android Resource Directory with some random qualifier which will just add the qualifier to the directory name, and after it's created, refactor it by deleting the qualifier part from the directory name and you'll end up with a directory named "layout" which is an "Android Resource Directory".
Just do the refactoring with the Project view selected in the Project pane, not the Android view.

Cannot create class-file Android Studio

I'm trying to integrate Google Calendar API into my android project and I follow the tutorial here
https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/quickstart/android
At step 5 create a new java class
I right click project folder src>main>java>com>example>utarapp and then new>file and entered the file name but then it has this error
What's going on ?
I'm using android studio 1.3.1
I think you are trying to create file with same name which is already present in the same package. This may be one possible reason.
It seems like you are right-clicking on the upper level in your application's directory tree.
Right click on one of the files inside the utarapp folder and then select Java class option from the menu.
For me this was happenning because of the length of the class name. In my case it was "ChallengesFragmentPagerAdapter"!
Changing it to "ChallengesPagerAdapter" solved the problem.
Create a blank Activity then remove "extends Activity" from the activity class.

Extending the application core

I'm working on a new type of navigation window. This new window (which I've called MultiNav) is intended to allow the user navigate through video, music and images in the same window, this window has three controls that allow the user to select to content type he wants to navigate.
Everything compiles, but I'm not able to link. The reason is the project is not able to find the object code (*.o files) since I've not include my changes into the build process (./configure make).
I can tell the project is autotools generated, but I can't find any of the files configure.ac or Makefile.am.
Questions:
1 - How can I include my code into Kodi/XBMC code distribution?
2 - Which are the files I've to edit to achive this?
I managed to findout how to notify xbmc/kodi project about new windows code.
In the folder xbmc/windows there is a file called Makefile.in that's the file that has to be edited in order to add your new code (for a window).
When the whole application is compiled, the code in this folder will be compiled into a static library called windows.a. Which will be linked to the main application binary.

In VS2012 how do I filter the Object Browser to display objects in my Project?

In VS2012 how do I filter the Object Browser to display objects accessible from my Project?
As far as I can make out from the UI it can be configured to show either
1) Everything installed on the machine.
2) A manually selected subset of everything installed on the machine.
3) Everything referenced by the entire Solution.
So where is the most useful view of all, namely the view of everything referenced by the current Project?
The MSDN even states that you can use it to view what can be referenced by the Project
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/exy1facf%28v=vs.100%29.aspx
"The Object Browser lets you select and examine the namespaces, classes, methods, and other programming symbols available for use in your project."
But I can't see how to do it.
You can use the Class View (Ctrl + Shift + C) to see the references available per project.
Look in the Projects References section of each project in the Class View.
Example: Class Library in Solution
Here, I am looking at the System.Collections classes.
Example: WPF Project in Solution
Here I am looking a the System.Diagnostics classes
To view the class in Object Browser, right click and choose, "Browse Definition".
