Importing an app-compat v7 library eclipse project to android studio

I have an Android application created in Eclipse, now I want to import it to Android studio, when I import project I get the following error

Project FinalProject Integrate:/home/vishal/Android_Workspace/FinalProject Integrate/project.properties:
Library reference ../android-support-v7-appcompat could not be found
Path is /home/vishal/Android_Workspace/FinalProject Integrate/../android-support-v7-appcompat which resolves to /home/vishal/Android_Workspace/android-support-v7-appcompat

and it is an unrecoverable error.

Try this: Go down to the folder where the workspace and there copy the project to another folder, then open the Android studio as administrator and try again.

Here's what I did: In the the project.properties file I deleted all dependencies, and while importing project in Android studio I simply followed the instructions (making sure the check box are ticked, especially the one that says add any dependency). And it worked.

  1. Edit your build.gradle, remove the dependency of project appcompat-v7
  2. In Android studio, Go to main menu, File -> Project structure -> Dependencies, click add icon on the right side, and add appcompat-v7 as a library dependency.
