How can i create a New Activity from IntelliJ?

Question

How can i create a new Activity from IntelliJ for Android PRoject, and this automatically generates xml File and .Class

Answer 1

Choose the class from the source folder where you want to create the activity.

Right click.

Choose New > Android Component.

In the New Android Component Dialogue choose Kind > Activity.

Name your Activity and save. You will get a Java source file created that extends Activity and <activity android:name=".view.Sample"/> line in the AndroidManifest.xml.

Answer 2

From the first look, highlight the src folder and click new. currently you have highlighted the layout folder, so it might provide you only those files thats meant to go there.

You can create a java class in src folder which extends the "activity" class.
