Where does local.properties go for android project?
For MAC
create file local.properties
inside android/
and paste this line inside the file
sdk.dir = /Users/USERNAME/Library/Android/sdk
The local.properties
file goes in the project's root level, in the same folder as the gradlew
, gradlew.bat
, settings.gradle
and other files.
This file should not be included in source control. After (incorrectly) including this in source control, then deleting the file locally, Android Studio re-created the file for me automatically.
Here is the example content of this file:
## This file is automatically generated by Android Studio.
# Do not modify this file -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE ERASED!
#
# This file must *NOT* be checked into Version Control Systems,
# as it contains information specific to your local configuration.
#
# Location of the SDK. This is only used by Gradle.
# For customization when using a Version Control System, please read the
# header note.

sdk.dir=C\:\\Program Files (x86)\\Android\\android-studio\\sdk
Note the sdk.dir=
reference to the location of the Android Studio SDK installation (which may be different on different machines).
