Java classes in android studio

I was wondering how to make a new Java class in android studio version 0.5.7. In Eclipse, you can just hit the new class button. However, in Android studio it does not give me the option of creating a new java class. Please help.

Hey Rohit! Here are the ways I can think of:

  • File > New > Java Class
  • Right-click on the package where you want to add it and select New > Java Class
  • Select the package in the Project pane on the left and hit CMD+N (Mac) or CTRL+N (Windows) and select Java Class

Thank you so much. I was right-clicking on the src folder, not the package. I was going to try to add a new java module and move the class from the module to the src folder. However this is much simpler. Once again thank you very much.
