AndroidStudio : Cannot resolve symbol MainActivity

Question

I got an error "Cannot resolve symbol MainActivity" on this code.

<activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"          //here
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:launchMode="singleTask" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/> 

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <data
                android:host="MainActivity"
                android:scheme="callback" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

Needless to say , MainActivity inherits Activity and package name is correct too.

Why?

Thank you

Here's an image of the directory structure.

Answer 1

Clean Caches

File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart...

Answer 2

It's possible that your 'src' directory isn't set as a source directory?

Your IDE seems to be seeing your com.example.fovoapp as a simple directory structure instead of a package. Also looking at your linked image, the little "J" on the java files tells me that also. When a java file is set as source usually it shows up as a Class "C".

I could be wrong but make sure you set your src directory as source and that should fix the issue.
