How to Build the project in Android Studio?

[nileshlg2003]

Recently I moved to Android studio from Eclipse So am not good with it. Can some one please guide me on how to build Rajawali vuforia project on Android studio? Here's what I tried till now, 1) Cloned the project 2) run gradle.bat with "clean assembleRelease uploadArchives" from command prompt. 3) I get the following error ' FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong: A problem occurred configuring project ':rajawalivuforia'.

SDK location not found. Define location with sdk.dir in the local.properties f ile or with an ANDROID_HOME environment variable. '

4) I checked the android sdk path in sdk.dir which is correct sdk.dir=C:\Users\Nilesh\AppData\Local\Android\sdk

I don't know what to do now. Shall I import the project directly in to Android studio as gradle project? but in that case it shows error gradle version is not supported

I still couldn't build the project.

I tried solutions provided in other posts like,un-commenting maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/" } it was already un-commented.

Hi Nilesh, The sonatype url shouldn't be uncommented. Did you get the latest version from Github?

[nileshlg2003]

yes I I got the latest one, and Sonatype url wasnt commneted by default and I didnt change it. However I was able to build the project after gradle synch.

Now what Next? If I want to run Example project Do i have to import it separately in Android studio? and it will automatically link it up? or Do I have to import the example in rajawalivuforia project in order to run it?

I am sorry for really stupid question :(

I Imported RajawaliVuforiaExample in android studio,

I get this error upon gradle build

Did you do a clean before build?

[nileshlg2003]

yes, I did clean it. it builds successfully. but when I run the application from AS, I get above error What does this line mean? Multiple dex files define Lcom/qualcomm/QCAR/BuildConfig;

I remember once I got similar error because of declaring multiple support library dependency in build.gradle (module)

@MasDennis @nileshlg2003 It's not working for me as well.
