Adding Akka Library to Intellij Project

akka, intellij-idea, scala

Solution

It's all about location...

had to dig down in the distribution to AKKA_HOME/lib/akka//akka-2.2.3/lib/akka

Problem

I'm trying to go through the Akka chapter in the Manning Book "Scala In Action" http://www.manning.com/raychaudhuri/. Chapter 12 has an Akka project, but no matter what I do I can't get the akka packages to resolve. I'd like to add the library directly to the project and avoid using SBT, as my team doesn't want to use it, so I'm trying to stay close to our dev environment. Steps I've taken thus far: 1. Create Scala project pointing to the Manning.com source code 2. Added the akka library to the project using the project settings tab If anyone has experience with this, I'd appreciate your advice.
