Package com.google.android.maps does not exist (IntelliJ)

Question

I\'ve used the Maps APIs many times before and not had this problem, but I\'ve clearly done something wrong with this IntelliJ project. Under Settings->SDKs I have specified

Answer 1

So to get the Google (Maps etc) APIs working in IntelliJ:

1. Under File->Project Structure->SDKs add an item for the platform level you're targetted. Under the classpath tab add a reference to the top of the android SDKs folder, and use the Build Target menu to specify which platform to target.
2. Under Settings->Project Structure->Modules->Dependencies select the SDK version from the "Module SDK" list
3. If you need to target the Google (Maps etc) APIs then under Settings->Project Structure->SDKs->Classpath make sure you ALSO add a reference the .jar file for the Google APIs for that platform version (e.g. addons/addon_google_apis_google_inc_8/libs/maps.jar
