AndroidAnnotations & IntelliJ IDEA [UPDATE]

Setup IntelliJ IDEA to work with Android Annotations:

1. Download libraries: archive with JAR’s is here - download it and - CAUTION - file androidannotations-X.X.X-api.jar must be put in libs directory of project, and for androidannotations-X.X.X.jar file a new directory must be created (e.g. ext-libs - what is thea idea of this - description here).
2. Add androidannotations-X.X.X-api.jar to libraries of project and default module.
3. Set annotations compilation.
4. During the first compilation there could be a compilation error - fix it by adding suffix to default activity in AndroidManifest.xml(e.g. MainActivity_ instead of MainActivity). AA generates additional classes in gen directory, and those all classes have _ suffix.
5. If the project still gets compilation error, switch default activity for other with no AA implementation or create temporary one, rebuild, and switch back to main one with suffix.

Happy injection!
