I've build a complete empty Project and I got this error:
e: This version (1.0.0-alpha13) of the Compose Compiler requires Kotlin version 1.4.30 but you appear to be using Kotlin version 1.4.32 which is not known to be compatible. Please fix your configuration (or suppressKotlinVersionCompatibilityCheck but don't say I didn't warn you!).
What can I do? (Sorry for this dumb question, but I'm complete new to Kotlin)
Thanks, Boothosh
You can go to Plugins in the IDE settings and uninstall the Kotlin one there, and do Install From Disk (under the gear icon) and use one of these: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6954-kotlin/versions - you'd probably need to update your gradle files too (I haven't done any of this before so I can't tell you if it works or if you'll run into problems)
Why not just use a newer version of Compose though? They're up to beta 6 now - I can't even see an alpha 13 listed! Seems like a better idea all round, unless there's a really specific reason you need that version you're using?
I am using Gradle 2.3 inside of IntelliJ IDEA 15 CE and Android Studio 1.3.2 and have always wondered what the situation is with gradle autocomplete / syntax highlighting etc.
When I look at a build.gradle file most of the code is dark gray and underlined, even keywords like task giving Cannot resolve symbol 'task'.
Coming from using Java in IDEA I find it disorientating and I would expect that types (like Javadoc) would be click through-able and auto-complete would offer me relevant stuff (like the methods and properties of Javadoc when inside the above task).
It would also be great if I could enumerate the source sets for this build file via autocomplete at the sourceSets., which I appreciate may need gradle to have executed the config build step to provide this info.
Am I missing something obvious or is Gradle tooling inside IDEA just not as good as the Java equivalents?
Thanks!
It could be Cucumber for Groovy plugin. As I know Gradle use some techniques and syntax of Groovy, so I tried to install some Groovy plugins and success at the first try.
Steps to install this plug in:
on MacOS: Preferences... -> Install JetBrains plugin... -> Cucumber
for Groovy.
I have checked out a cross-compilation project from SVN on Eclipse (on a Linux system). I am unable to open a functions declaration from the functions's right-click context menu (or by pressing F3). Upon research, I found out I don't even have anything like Index -> .. in the project's right-click menu. I have tried a lot with the Preferences -> C/C++ -> indexer but no useful results. I am not using Eclipse to build it but there are no errors since I can build it using makefile
PS: Though there are a few questions with the matching title, but none of them helped me
Here is the solution found after a million attempts. The project should be checked-out as C/C++ project, by selecting import using new project wizard.. The index will NOT be available in the SVN projects checked-out directly. Hope it saves some one's time
Eclipse Kepler SR2 on Windows 7 here.
Faced the same issue, the following sequence of inputs made it work for me:
Import...
"Checkout projects from SVN."
Select branch etc.
Check the "Check out project configured using the New Project Wizard" radio button.
Select "C/C++ -> C Project."
Pick a toolchain, doesn't matter which if you use an external one.
Now you can right click on the project (once fully checked out) and rebuild the indexer.
I am using Indigo and solved it as follows (without checking out again!)
Right click on project in question and select New->Convert to a C/C++ Project
After selecting toolchain, indexing gets built automatically.
For those times when you want to isolate the Java and give it a quick test..
Can you run non-Android Java projects in Android studio as in Eclipse?
Tested on Android Studio 0.8.6 - 3.5
Using this method you can have Java modules and Android modules in the same project and also have the ability to compile and run Java modules as stand alone Java projects.
Open your Android project in Android Studio. If you do not have one, create one.
Click File > New Module. Select Java Library and click Next.
Fill in the package name, etc and click Finish. You should now see a Java module inside your Android project.
Add your code to the Java module you've just created.
Click on the drop down to the left of the run button. Click Edit Configurations...
In the new window, click on the plus sign at the top left of the window and select Application
A new application configuration should appear, enter in the details such as your main class and classpath of your module.
Click OK.
Now if you click run, this should compile and run your Java module.
If you get the error Error: Could not find or load main class..., just enter your main class (as you've done in step 7) again even if the field is already filled in. Click Apply and then click Ok.
My usage case:
My Android app relies on some precomputed files to function. These precomputed files are generated by some Java code. Since these two things go hand in hand, it makes the most sense to have both of these modules in the same project.
NEW - How to enable Kotlin in your standalone project
If you want to enable Kotlin inside your standalone project, do the following.
Continuing from the last step above, add the following code to your project level build.gradle (lines to add are denoted by >>>):
buildscript {
>>> ext.kotlin_version = '1.2.51'
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.3'
>>> classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
}
...
Add the following code to your module level build.gradle (lines to add are denoted by >>>):
apply plugin: 'java-library'
>>> apply plugin: 'kotlin'
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
>>> implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:$kotlin_version"
>>> runtimeClasspath files(compileKotlin.destinationDir)
}
...
Bonus step: Convert your main function to Kotlin! Simply change your main class to:
object Main {
...
#JvmStatic
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
// do something
}
...
}
EDIT: many moon after this question was asked, yes, now apparently you can.
No, but it's based on Intellij IDEA.
The community version of that is free for download but it doesn't support most things requiring an external database or application server. The line for Java is pretty much that JavaSE code can happily use Community.
If you want that (or are using JavaEE) then you either need the Ultimate version, which isn't free, or the EAP of the next version which is usually good for a month until they release another.
Basically it works like this
Android Studio is just Android the Android Stuff from IDEA 13 Community...
...which will be free, and is anything from IDEA 13 Ultimate...
...that doesn't require a database or app server.
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/
IDEA 12 Community doesn't have the ability to import the gradilized project and it won't, so while you can do Android development in it now (I do), don't expect it to have the same features as Android Studio. There's a lot of good new Android stuff in it, that's going into 13.
Easy way to run a java program in Android Studio would be,
Create a java Class says "Test.java" in Android Studio.
Write your code eg, a Hello World program to test.
Right-click on the Java class and:
select the option Run 'Test.main()'
or
press CTRL + SHIFT + F10 (on windows) or control + R (on Mac)
There you have your Java code running below.
With Android Studio 0.6.1+ (and possibly earlier) you can easily develop standard Java (non-Android) apps.
This method has been tested on 0.8.2:
Start by creating a vanilla Android Phone app, using File > New Project. Then add a Java Library module to hold your Java Application code. (Choose 'Java Library' even if you're building an application). You'll find you can build and run Java apps with main() methods, Swing apps etc.
You'll want to delete the auto-generated Android "app" module, which you're not using. Go to File -> Project Structure, and delete it (select the "app" module in the box on the left, and click the 'minus' icon above the box). Now when you reopen File -> Project Structure -> Project, you'll see options for selecting the project SDK and language level, plus a bunch of other options that were previously hidden. You can go ahead and delete the "app" module from the disk.
In 0.6.1 you could avoid creating the android module in the first place:
Go to File > New Project. Fill in your application name. On the "form factors" selection page, where you state your minimum Android SDK, deselect the Mobile checkbox, and proceed with creating your project.
Once the project is created, go to File -> Project Structure -> Project, and set your JDK as the "Project SDK". Add a Java Library module to hold your application code as above.
Here's exactly what the setup looks like.
Edit Configurations > '+' > Application:
I found a somewhat hacky, annoying and not-completely-sure-it-always-works solution to this. I wanted to share in case someone else finds it useful.
In Android Studio, you can right-click a class with a main method and select "Run .main()". This will create a new Run configuration for YourClass, although it won't quite work: it will be missing some classpath entries.
In order to fix the missing classpath entries, go into the Project Structure and manually add the output folder location for your module and any other module dependencies that you need, like so:
File -> Project Structure ...
Select "Modules" in the Project Settings panel on the left-column panel
Select your module on the list of modules in the middle-column panel
Select the "Dependencies" tab on the right-column panel
And then for the module where you have your Java application as well as for each of the module dependencies you need:
- Click "+" -> "Jars or directories" on the far right of the right-column panel
- Navigate to the output folder of the module (e.g.: my_module/build/classes/main/java) and click "OK"
- On the new entry to the Dependencies list, on the far right, change the select box from "Compile" to "Runtime"
After this, you should be able to execute the Run configuration you just created to run the simple Java application.
One thing to note is that, for my particular [quite involved] Android Studio project set-up, I have to manually build the project with gradle, from outside Android Studio in order to get my simple Java Application classes to build, before I run the application - I think this is because the Run configuration of type "Application" is not triggering the corresponding Gradle build.
Finally, this was done on Android Studio 0.4.0.
I hope others find it useful. I also hope Google comes around to supporting this functionality soon.
I installed IntelliJ IDEA community version from http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/
I tried opening my project that I started in Android studio but it failed when at gradle build. I instead opened both android studio and intellij at same time and placed one screen next to the other and simply drag and dropped my java files, xml layouts, drawables, and manifest into the project hiearchy of a new project started in IntelliJ. It worked around the gradle build issues and now I can start a new project in IntelliJ and design either an android app or a basic Java app. Thankfully this worked because I hated having so many IDEs on my pc.
I have been able to do it using following steps:
Open Android Studio and select 'Import Project'.
Browse to your project folder in the browse window and select it.
Tested in Android Studio 0.8.14:
I was able to get a standard project running with minimal steps in this way:
In an open Android Studio project, click File > New Module.
Click More Modules > Java Library > Next, then fill in whatever you prefer for the names.
A new module will appear as a folder on the same level as your "app" folder in the Project Structure. Open it and open the new Java class file.
You can then add your code, and choose Build > Run 'YourClassName'. Presto, your code is running with no Android device!
It works perfect if you do File>Open... and then select pom.xml file. Be sure to change the dropdown at the top-left of the sidebar that says "Android" to "Project" to see all your files. Also I think it helps if the folder your pom.xml file is in a folder called "app/".
Disclaimer: My java project was generated by Google App Engine.
Spent a day on finding the easiest way to do this. The purpose was to find the fastest way to achieve this goal. I couldn't make it as fast as running javac command from terminal or compiling from netbeans or sublime text 3. But still got a good speed with android studio.
This looks ruff and tuff way but since we don't initiate projects on daily bases that is why I am okay to do this.
I downloaded IntelliJ IDEA community version and created a simply java project. I added a main class and tested a run. Then simply closed IntelliJ IDEA and opened Android Studio and opened the same project there. Then I had to simply attach JDK where IDE helped me by showing a list of available JDKs and I selected 1.8 and then it compiled well. I can now open any main file and press Control+Shift+R to run that main file.
Then I copied all my Java files into src folder by Mac OS Finder. And I am able to compile anything I want to.
There is nothing related to Gradle or Android and compile speed is pretty good.
Thanks buddies
To run a java file in Android ensure your class has the main method. In Android Studio 3.5 just right click inside the file and select "Run 'Filename.main()'" or click on "Run" on the menu and select "Run Filename" from the resulting drop-down menu.
on Android Studio 4.0 and above, you will get an option readily on the IDE,a green run icon to run the related main() class.
i am programming in eclipse for the first time and when i create a blackberry project i am getting this error in BlackBerry_App_Descriptor.xml as
Description Resource Path Location Type
InvalidRegex: Pattern value '([a-zA-Z_]{1,63}[\s-a-zA-Z_0-9.]{0,63}[;]?)*' is not a valid regular expression. The reported error was: ''-' is an invalid character range. Write '-'.' at column '19'. BlackBerry_App_Descriptor.xml /sample Unknown XML Problem
please help me out
thanks in advance.
I have had the same problem earlier with my first project on BlackBerry using the Eclipse provided on the site.
Though I took a lot of time to get a workaround for this, the solution is surprisingly simple.
Uninstall the JDK 7.x from your Windows system, adjust your path variables to point to another JDK version, preferably 6. There could be other dependencies in your Eclipse environment which need to be set independently to point to the new JDK (try Windows -> Preferences -> Java -> Installed JREs in your Eclipse and voila!)
see? let us know if you still face the problem..
I'm having the same problem as you are. There is a post regarding this issue at http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Java-Development/InvalidRegex-Pattern-value-a-zA-Z-1-63-a-zA-Z-0-9-0-63-is-not-a/td-p/944343
I haven't been able to solve the problem yet, and I am clueless as to what may be causing it. The answers at the blackberry support forums didn't work for me at all. But do try them out. Best of luck.
The deprecated version of the blackberry development IDE for eclipse (version 1.1 of the pluggin) works fine, but is not available for download anymore.
