Project Properties for A ndroid

I will discuss ONLY the tabs in File->Project Structure interfaces that are directly related to Android.

Java & Android SDK location specification

• this is where you specify the location of the jdk (you do not need to alter this --only if you want to change the version of jdk used)
  
  
  
  
  
  

Project tab

• this shows version of gradle (which is the compiler tool used by Android Studio) -- you do not need to change this --only if you want to

app tab (subtabs -Properties, Flavors, etc)

• PROPERTY subtab this shows build tools version and compile sdk version (again no need to change unless you want to)

Flavors sub-tab = minsdk, packagename, target sdk, version number (again no need to change unless you want to)

 

Dependencies sub-tab = jar files (external used in the project) (again no need to change unless you want to or have new ones to add --)

• Add External Jars(if as usually would be located in directory different than project directory)
• 3rd Party packages ---again use this tool to add jars.
• Example : above using 3rd party openCVLibrary jar
