Some of you may have noticed that AndroidStudio really wants you to develop for Lollipop–so much so that if you try to create a new project for any of the 4.x versions, it will be broken out of the box. Now, I’m not sure how widespread this problem is, so as a disclaimer, I’ll say I have this problem every time, with the most up-to-date version of AndroidStudio from the Beta channel, on my machine. Here’s some relevant system configuration data:
- Mac OS X 10.8.5
- AndroidStudio 1.1.0
- javac 1.6.0_65
- Android SDK Build Tools 21.1.2 (with a few older versions still installed)
