How do I point Android Studio at my Java files?

I mostly destroyed my android studio project by accident, and in trying to rebuild it, I've come to a point where the project won't run because it can't find my MainActivity - a java file - because the AndroidManifest.xml throws an error saying 'cannot resolve symbol MainActivity'. edit: I know where this file is located, it's in the src directory, but android studio doesn't seem to know that, so can't start the MainActivity.

Where is the path to these files set? ie, where does a module look for it's own java files? It doesn't seem to be in the Android facet section, that's only the paths to resources and assets, libraries and the manifest file, but that's the sort of thing I'm looking for.

Thanks!

I had the same problem. The cause for me was that I'd imported a source file from a different project and the package specifier at the top of the .java file was wrong:

package com.example.android.opengl;

Instead it should have referred to my current project.
