Google Glass: GDK with Android Studio

Question

I’m trying to use the new Google Glass Development kit with Android Studio. Unfortunately I\'m not having much success.

I get the error: \"Gradle: package com.google

Answer 1

After KitKat, changing compileSdkVersion to "Google Inc.:Glass Development Kit Preview:19" worked for me. Note: I also had to restart Android Studio after installing the GDK Preview from it's built in SDK Manager. The GDK Preview wasn't recognized by Android Studio until I restarted.

Answer 2

Change the compileSdkVersion in your build.gradle file to refer directly to the GDK add-on:

android {
    compileSdkVersion "Google Inc.:Glass Development Kit Preview:19"
    buildToolsVersion "19.0.2"

    // other stuff...
}

(The buildToolsVersion can be newer than 19.0.2 if you have a higher version of the SDK installed, as long as it's at least 19.0.2.)

Answer 3

did you try right clicking on the jar in the libs folder and hitting "add as library"?

EDIT: I've found that you have to do that in addition to adding it in module settings and the build.gradle. Also a clean/rebuild with gradle may make it work as well.

Answer 4

Today is 1/10/2015, and from now on, the best option becomes:

Change the compileSdkVersion in your build.gradle file to refer directly to the GDK add-on:

android {
    compileSdkVersion "Google Inc.:Glass Development Kit Preview:19"
    buildToolsVersion "19.1.0"

    // other stuff...
}

You should install 19.1.0 build tools first.
