Set the Activity Class in Intellij Idea 10.5 for Running Android App on Emulator

Question

Recently I created and application under eclipse and it worked just fine later on I tried to transfer the codes to Intellij idea 10.5 and what I did is removing the Original MyActivity.java and replace it with the class I made under eclipse... Now every time I try to run my app it says that I need to define the Android Activity class and when I select that file it says that the class is not Acceptable.

Since I look at the codes in the original MyActivity class and my own class everything looks similar and I didn't change the structure of an activity class... so what is the problem?

Answer 1

Did you add this activity in AndroidManifest.xml ? Does your class extend Activity ?

If the class meets the above requirements, you will be able to specify it in Android Run/Debug configuration.
