Migrating from Eclipse to Android-Studio (gradle)

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I'm trying to migrate my applications to use gradle, but I'm facing some problems including library projects.

My project tree is this:

My projects root
- MyLib1
-- res
-- src
-- libs
- MyLib2
-- res
-- src
-- libs
- MyLib3
-- res
-- src
-- libs
- MyAppBase
-- res
-- src
-- libs
- MyApp - full version
-- res
-- src
-- libs
- MyAppFree - free version
-- res
-- src
-- libs

With Eclipse I had the following dependencies

MyAppBase depends on:
-MyLib1
-MyLib2
-MyLib3

MyApp depends on:
-MyAppBase
-MyLib1
-MyLib2
-MyLib3

MyAppFree depends on:
-MyAppBase
-MyLib1
-MyLib2
-MyLib3

This organization worked well within Eclipse, but now with Android-Studio and gradle I'm having problems.

I've got the following build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'android'

dependencies {
    //compile project('../MyLib1')  <- error
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 18
    buildToolsVersion "19.0.1"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 4
        targetSdkVersion 14
    }
    sourceSets {
        main {
            manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
            java.srcDirs = ['src']
            resources.srcDirs = ['src']
            aidl.srcDirs = ['src']
            renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
            res.srcDirs = ['res']
            assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
        }

        // Move the tests to tests/java, tests/res, etc...
        instrumentTest.setRoot('tests')

        // Move the build types to build-types/
        // For instance, build-types/debug/java, build-types/debug/AndroidManifest.xml, ...
        // This moves them out of them default location under src//... which would
        // conflict with src/ being used by the main source set.
        // Adding new build types or product flavors should be accompanied
        // by a similar customization.
        debug.setRoot('build-types/debug')
        release.setRoot('build-types/release')
    }
}

How can I include the projects MyLib1, MyLib2, MyLib3 as a dependency so It will be compiled along with my project???
