So like everyone else, I moved to Android Studio and encountered issues.
My current issue - Android Studio won't let me run an application without a launch-able activity in the Manifest, for example, my application Pro key which isn't suppose to be launch-able and runs great with Eclipse.
Obviously it's not suppose to run but is there any way to install it directly from Studio?
It's not possible to have a Service on its own as a stand-alone "app". It needs to be started manually by a user through an Activity .
Launcher Activities are the activities that can be launched for a given intent. For example, when you press an app icon on the home screen, the StartActivity intent starts the activity you have specified as the launcher activity.
Yes, an activity can be created without any user interface. These activities are treated as abstract activities.
In Run/Debug Configurations (just next to the launch
button in the toolbar) you can manage your application configurations. There you should be able to specify whether you want to launch an Activity
or not.
In Run/Debug Configurations in General -> Launch Options -> Launch select Nothing
