Android studio 0.4.2 + Android annotations errors

Question

I tried to install android annotations in android studio 0.4.2 with gradle but it can't configure the MainActivity_ class

I configured Compiler-> Annotations proccesors Here's a picture !

and this is a part of my build.gradle

    configurations {
    apt
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:19.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:19.0.1'
    //android annotations
    compile 'org.androidannotations:androidannotations-api:3.0'
    apt 'org.androidannotations:androidannotations:3.0'
}

def getSourceSetName(variant) {
    return new File(variant.dirName).getName();
}

android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
    aptOutput = file("${project.buildDir}/source/apt_generated/${variant.dirName}")
    println "****************************"
    println "variant: ${variant.name}"
    println "manifest:  ${variant.processResources.manifestFile}"
    println "aptOutput:  ${aptOutput}"
    println "****************************"

    variant.javaCompile.doFirst {
        println "*** compile doFirst ${variant.name}"
        aptOutput.mkdirs()
        variant.javaCompile.options.compilerArgs += [
                '-processorpath', configurations.apt.getAsPath(),
                '-AandroidManifestFile=' + variant.processResources.manifestFile,
                '-s', aptOutput
        ]
    }
}

I can inject views in my activity but it doen't find the MainActivity_ class

In the countless tutorials that i've read says that i need to mark the generated directory as Source , but i can't do that with android studio 0.4.2

Any help, appreciated!

A working solution has been submitted on the github issue: source folders have to be configured via gradle. So the configuration for android part should look like this :

android {
    compileSdkVersion 18
    buildToolsVersion "18.0.1"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 7
        targetSdkVersion 18
    }

    sourceSets {
        main {
            manifest.srcFile 'src/main/AndroidManifest.xml'
            java.srcDirs = ['src/main/java', 'YOUR_OTHER_PRODUCTION_SOURCE_FOLDER']
            resources.srcDirs = ['src/main/res']
            res.srcDirs = ['src/main/res']
        }
    }
}

Also, I agree with Eugen, you really should use the new android-apt plugin. This has been explained on the wiki page of AA project. I'm gonna add a part of how to configure AA on Android studio to clarify this point.
