title: Androidannotations + Android Studio ( almost working )
body: <p>This is something I'm trying to figure out. How do you make both run <strong>without</strong> using Gradle or Maven to compile the source files.</p>
  
  <p>What works:
  I've done the following steps:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>set up the Annotations processor for Android Studio to point at androidannotations-2.7.1</li>
  <li>added a new library inside my project's module named androidannotations-api-2.7.1</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I can tell it works because Android Studio automatically does the right imports for me when I press Alt+Enter.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Problem:</strong> during compilation I get the following message:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Unexpected error. Please report an issue on AndroidAnnotations, with
    the following content: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not find
    the AndroidManifest.xml file, going up from path
    [/home/user/Work/FailAnnotationTryProject/build/classes/production/main/generated]
    found using dummy file
    [file:///home/user/Work/FailAnnotationTryProject/build/classes/production/main/generated/dummy1382376292025.java]
    (max atempts: 10)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I have checked my Facets -> Manifest file path and it is right.</p>
  
  <p>Has someone got any suggestion or better a solution?</p>
