| <p>If you've previously developed for Android using Eclipse and would like to migrate |
| to Android Studio, you should export your projects from Eclipse in order to generate |
| Gradle build files. You can then import your project into Android Studio.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h2 id="Export">Export from Eclipse</h2> |
| <ol> |
| <li><a href="{@docRoot}tools/help/adt.html#Updating">Update your Eclipse ADT Plugin</a> |
| (you must have version 22.0 or higher).</li> |
| <li>In Eclipse, select <strong>File > Export</strong>.</li> |
| <li>In the window that appears, open <strong>Android</strong> and select <strong>Generate Gradle |
| build files</strong>.</li> |
| <li>Select the project you want to export for Android Studio and click |
| <strong>Finish</strong>.</li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>Your selected project remains in the same location but now contains a {@code build.gradle} |
| file and is ready for Android Studio.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h2 id="Export">Import into Android Studio</h2> |
| <ol> |
| <li>In Android Studio, close any projects currently open. You should see the |
| <strong>Welcome to Android Studio</strong> window.</li> |
| <li>Click <strong>Import Project</strong>.</li> |
| <li>Locate the project you exported from Eclipse, expand it, select the |
| <strong>build.gradle</strong> file and click <strong>OK</strong>.</li> |
| <li>In the following dialog, leave <strong>Use gradle wrapper</strong> selected and click |
| <strong>OK</strong>. (You do not need to specify the Gradle home.)</li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| |
| <p>Now that your project is imported to Android Studio, |
| read <a href="{@docRoot}sdk/installing/studio-tips.html">Tips and Tricks</a> for some |
| help getting started.</p> |
| |
| |
| <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> |
| It's possible to import an existing Android project to Android Studio even if you |
| don't generate a Gradle build file from Eclipse—Android Studio will successfully build and |
| run projects using an existing Ant build file. However, in order to take advantage of build |
| variants and other advanced features in the future, |
| we strongly suggest that you generate a Gradle build file using |
| the ADT plugin or write your own Gradle build file for use with Android Studio. |
| For more information about the Gradle build system, see the |
| <a href="http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/user-guide">Gradle |
| Plugin User Guide</a>.</p> |
