Migrate to Android Studio and Gradle #245

Open dllud opened 7 years ago

dllud commented 7 years ago

Eclipse ADT plugin is no longer supported, meaning we should migrate to Android Studio. Still, I wonder if Android Studio can handle our pure Java libs (libpricealarm and libdynticker). If not, we would have to use two IDEs simultaneously, which would be cumbersome.

I'm all in favour of the migration from a Maven to a Gradle build system. I have to take a deep breath everytime I open that verbose pom.

Instead of Android Studio we can directly use Intellij IDEA:

IntelliJ IDEA provides the same coding assistance and integrated toolset for developing Android applications as Android Studio [...].

This way it will probably be easier to handle our pure Java libs, with no need for a second IDE.
