setup actionbar sherlock in android studio 0.4.2

I am developing an android project by using actionbrsherlock library. after adding the actionbarsherlock library in android studio , my directory structure is

MYAPPLICATION
  - app
  - gradle
  - libraries
     - actionbarsherlock (library project)
  build.gradle
  setting.gradle

build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
        compile project(":libraries:actionbarsherlock")
        }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

setting.build

include ':app'
include ':libraries:actionbarsherlock'

after running following error occured,

A problem occurred evaluating root project 'MyApplication'. > No signature of method: org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.compile() is applicable for argument types: (org.gradle.api.internal.project.DefaultProject_Decorated) values: [project ':libraries:actionbarsherlock'] Possible solutions: module(java.lang.Object)

UPDATE:

I upgraded my android studio to 0.4.4. and change the build.gradle file. one can find the whole setup on github https://github.com/manishpathak99/AndroidStudio.

First I will strongly recommend you to upgrade your studio to version 0.4.3 because there were some dependencies related issues in 0.4.2 release .

Answer :

You are adding module dependencies at wrong place in build.gradle file . Your module's build.gradle file should look like this :

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'android'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 19
    buildToolsVersion "19.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 10
        targetSdkVersion 19
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            runProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'
        }

        debug {
            runProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    // Your all module dependencies should be defined here
    compile project(":libraries:actionbarsherlock")

}

Recommended Solution :

ActionbarSherlock library has its maven dependency, In such cases no need to download the whole library and add it as as module in your project, instead add the maven gradle dependency in your module's build.gradle file like

dependencies {
       compile 'com.actionbarsherlock:actionbarsherlock-i18n:4.4.0@aar'
}

That's it.
