Android Import Java.Nio.File.Files; Cannot Be Resolved

Error: The import java.nio.file.Files cannot be resolved

This is definitely something to do with the version of eclipse (3.7.2) that I was using. Someone gave me their copy of android developer tools and the problem went away.

So... Update your eclipse if you see this.

Android import java.nio.file.Files; cannot be resolved

Android does not offer all classes that "conventional java" has to offer. Files is one of the classes, that Android doesn't offer.

You can have a look at the classes available in Android here: http://developer.android.com/reference/classes.html

So unfortunately you have to use other functions / classes to implement the same functionality.

PS: The class is shown in your screenshot because you browse the classes of java installed on your PC, not those that are be available on the Android phone / tablet.

Update

The Files/FileSystem classes have become available starting with API version 26.

Eclipse: The import java.io cannot be resolved

Check two things

Eclipse preferences

1. Check your Eclipse preferences: Java -> Installed JREs
2. The one that you're using should be marked and it should be a JDK not just a JRE.

Project build path

1. Also check your project's build path: Right click on the project -> Properties -> Java Build Path
2. Check in the libraries folder whether the JRE System Library is present and ...
3. If not add it using Add library -> JRE System Library and then
   select the correct one (from an installed JDK).

java.nio.file.Path cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

I am using JDK 1.6

The java.nio.file package was only introduced in Java 7.

Failed resolution of: java/nio/file/Paths;

Set your minSdkVersion to 26 or higher, as that class is relatively new.

Alternatively, do not use Paths. Since you have limited access to files on Android Q and higher, you may need to be considering other approaches anyway.

How to fix issue Caused by: java.nio.file.NoSuchFileException: app/build/intermediates/external_libs_dex/release/out while signing apk?

Cleaning .gradle in caches helped me. here's the commands :

rm -rf android/.gradle
rm -rf .gradle
rm -rf ~/.gradle

it will show you :
/.gradle/caches: Directory not empty ( as a link) , click on it and delete the .gradle directory and it will start working again.
