How to move and rename a project in android studio?
android, android-studio, intellij-idea
Solution
Close the project in Android Studio (File -> Close Project). Move the project and rename it by moving its home folder/directory. Open the new project from Android Studio (File -> Open)
Problem
This should be a really simple question :) I have a project that works fine. Now I wanted to rename it and to change the path of the projectfolder. First it seemd simple: right click -> "move" and "refactor/rename". After moving and renaming my project folder and my apk modul there was not the same project-structur as before. My project libs have been included twice. I looked in the '.iml' files and saw that the previous path was included - so I changed this. After this I could compile my project over the command line but not with the IDE. There I got this error: ``` NullPointerException: no project directory specified ``` Whats the default way to move and rename a project? I solved my problem by making a new project and copying all files, but it would be very cool to know the solution of this "problem". EDIT: Origin Project-Structure: ``` MyProject --- libraries --- MyApp ``` After Moving: ``` MyProject --- MyProject (new path) --- MyProject (old path) ``` I think I have to do more than just copy the project. Somehow I have to specify the "new" project, havn't I?
