Android Studioandroid Studio is Google's own Android development tool, the current stable version has reached 2.1.1, as Android Studio continues to evolve, more and more apps will be migrated to the platform.
FAQ Below are a few of the issues I encountered during my use of Android Studio:
1. First time to open studio error "Unable to access Android SDK Add-on List"
This interface does not have to be tube, click Cancel. After entering the studio home page, set the path of the SDK, JDK, NDK, respectively, in "File"--"Project Structure"-"SDK location". Set up, and then open it will no longer error.
2. Create a new project on studio error "Failed to Resolve:com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23"
The reason is that the "Android Support Library" version of this library is less than 23, you need to open "SDK Manager.exe" to upgrade the library to the latest. Once the upgrade is complete, auto-recompile after restarting studio will not report this error. Also note that the compile value of the dependencies segment in the Build.gradle file is consistent with the library version of the Android support library, otherwise it will be an error.
3, Studio often error "cannot resolve symbol ' R '"
Studio will be intermittent, unexplained, can choose "Build"-"clean Project" after the re-editing.
4, run the project times wrong "Compilesdkversion ' android-24 ' requires JDK 1.8 or later to compile."
Studio default specifies the highest version of the SDK (currently 24) to compile, and if the JDK on the developer's machine is not version 1.8, an error will be made. There are two solutions, one is to upgrade the JDK to 1.8, and the other is to modify the Build.gradle file to lower the value of compilesdkversion (as dropped to version 19).
Using Svnandroid Studio comes with the SVN plugin, subversion, but needs to be configured by the developer to use SVN functionality properly. The specific configuration steps are as follows:
1, installation TortoiseSVN
To install TORTOISESVN, select command line client tools so that the svn.exe can be found in the Bin directory after installation.
2. Configure the TORTOISESVN command line tool in Android Studio
"File"--"Settings"--"Version Control"--"Subversion"--the Browse button on the right side of "User command line Client" selects the locally installed Svn.exe
3. Using SVN to check out a project in Android studio
"VCS"--"Checkout from Version Control"--"Subversion"
4. Update/Submit SVN
Right-click the project and select "Subversion"-"Update File ..." (from SVN) or "Commit file ..." In the right-click menu (submit files to SVN)
The steps to install plug-ins in Android studio are similar to eclipse by selecting the menu "File"--"Settings"--"Plugins"-"Browser repositories ...", Then pop up a window of the list of currently available plugins, select "Code Tools" in the Category box of the window--Select the specified plugin--click on the "Install" button in the right window, and restart studio after installation to use the plugin function normally. Here are a few common studio plugins:
Android parcelable Code generator The plugin can automatically generate Parcelable interface codes. The developer first writes out the definition of a class and an internal variable, and then presses Alt+insert in the code, with the "parcelable" entry below the list of menus, as follows:
Select to insert the code that implements the Parcelable interface in the class.
Android code generator The plugin can quickly generate corresponding activity, Fragment, Adapter, menu and other code according to the layout file. Right-click on the layout file, or right-click inside the layout file, the popup right-click menu has a "Generate Android Code" option with the following menu:
When the build item is selected, the Code window pops up and the generated code is copied out. However, note that the plugin does not support Chinese characters, and if there is a Chinese character in the XML file, the code generates a failure.
Gsonformat the plug-in can quickly convert a JSON string into a code snippet, including variable definitions, and set and get functions.
