Cannot resolve symbol 'AsyncTask' in Android Studio

Question

I have a class which extends AsyncTask in Java, but Android Studio gives an error that the symbol AsyncTask can't be resolved.

class GcmRegistrationAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, String> {
// CLASS CODE
}

Do I miss an import statement or is my code wrong?

Answer 1

I have the same issue in my Android Studio installation. Auto organizing does not work, but if you manually add import android.os.AsyncTask; to your imports, the class will be found.
