How To Add Parse to an Android Studio Project?

Question

I\'m trying to use the Parse library in Android Studio. I have used the basic example on their website and added the jar to the libs folder as well as added as a global libr

Answer 1

I encountered the same problem too and here's what I did:

• I placed the entire Parse-1.2.5 in the libs folder (I didn't have to create the folder as Parse's quickstart said).
• Open the build.grade file. There are two of them - open the one that's at the same level as the src folder

• You'll see two instances of "dependencies". Add the following to the "dependencies" that is NOT nested under "buildscript":

  compile files('libs/Parse-1.2.5/Parse-1.2.5.jar')

If that still doesn't work, try right clicking the Parse-1.2.5.jar file and select "Add to Project Library"

Hope that helps!
