Android studio auto fix

Question

I don't know what the exact name is for s feature like this, but I will just describe it.

I am using android studio and I added some java classes from a different project. Now it says

"missing package statement: yada yada". But there is not option in the error popup to just automatically add the missing package statement. I know it seems lazy to not type it, but I like to do things quickly.

When there is an error like this, is there a way for android studio to automatically added the needed lines of code like eclipse would?

This is a common frustration. While not a perfect solution, I found https://stackoverflow.com/a/16616085/967131 to work for me.

For Windows/Linux, you can go to File -> Settings -> Editor -> General -> Auto Import -> Java and make the following changes:

change "Insert imports on paste" dropdown value to "All"

check "Add unambiguous imports on the fly" option

On a Mac, do the same thing in Android Studio -> Preferences

That way, as you type, or when you copy and paste, many imports will be added automatically. Those that aren't are ambiguous; put the cursor on the class, press alt+enter and select which version of the class you meant.
