AIDE "Unknown entity 'R'" Error with Android Studio App Project


I am trying to work on an Android App that I started writing with Android Studio using AIDE, but I have an issue with the project throwing an Unknown entity 'R' error in AIDE that I never saw in Android Studio. I would imagine that somehow, Android Studio uses Gradle to manage this and prevent this from being an issue, but since AIDE does not support Gradle, the project does not function properly.

What must I do to make the project work in AIDE while still maintaining compatibility with Android Studio? This seems to be an issue that others have experienced, but I have been unable to find a solution to the problem.

Solution

  • Just add an import with R with the name of your Project. Like for example, my package name is - com.xyz.app then add an Import as import com.xyz.app.R;
