How to use auto-generated sdk file in android studio?

Hi:
I am currently trying to use the the client
side SDKs(sample shoppingcartService SDK) generated by Backendless API Engine.
But I don’t know how to use it. I tried to import the zip file I downloaded as
a dependency to my Android project. But it seems not working correctly because
I can not use the function it defines. Here is the link from documentation, but
it does not provide enough instruction.

https://backendless.com/documentation/business-logic/java/apieng_client_sdk_generator.htm

Thanks in advance

After searching on Google, When I tried to add this unzipped file into a new module as eclipse project, but after typing location of unzipped file, android studio showed"specify location of the gradle or android eclipse project ".

Am I on the right truck? or…
Thanks

Hello, you have to:

  1. Create a new project or use an existing one.
  2. Add the dependency to backnendless android sdk.
  3. Download zip file.
  4. Unzip it.
  5. Copy “com” folder http://take.ms/hN18pN
  6. Paste it to src folder in your project
  7. Use ShoppingCartService to invoke methods.
