charts - AChartEngine And Android Studio

Question

I have to create an application that makes extensive use of charts. Reading the web I chose achartengine that seems to have everything I need.

I downloaded the jar file, I plugged in the libs folder, I selected "add to library" and I lunch the gradlew clean. Result in the sources where I do the import of org.achartengine.xxxx I always returned the error that fails to resolve symbols .

Do you have suggestions? Thank you Andrea

I am able to use this library in my Android Studio project, this topic explains how to add AChartEngine repo to your project.

What I did:

1. Added following to project-wide build.gradle (one from the project root):

   allprojects {
       repositories {
           ...
           maven {
               url "https://repository-achartengine.forge.cloudbees.com/snapshot/"
           }
       }
   }
   

2. For every module that uses the library, add this to its build.gradle (you may put this to the top-level build.gradle if it should be included in all modules):

   dependencies {
       ...
       compile group: 'org.achartengine', name: 'achartengine', version: '1.2.0'
   }
   

Now I can use the library in the project, I see the classes in code assist popups and build runs as succeeds.
