Errors in Android Studio myfirstapp : Gradle errors

Errors in Android Studio myfirstapp : Gradle errors

I'm trying to follow along with the official Android tutorial
(http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html)
but I'm failing miserably. Everything worked OK until I needed to add a
second Activity. First, the Activity I created in Android Studio does not
show up in my list of java files. I clicked New -> Activity and nothing
appeared. To get around this I opened up Windows Explorer and
copied/renamed MainActivity.java to DisplayMessageActivity.java and added
the code in the tutorial.
After following along the app does not run and I get multiple "Gradle"
errors such as:
Gradle: error: cannot find symbol class Activity
Gradle: error: cannot find symbol class Bundle
What do I need to fix in order to get this to run? Here is the relevant code:
MainActivity.java
package com.example.myfirstapp;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
public final static String EXTRA_MESSAGE =
"com.example.myfirstapp.MESSAGE";
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is
present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
/** Called when the user clicks the Send button */
public void sendMessage(View view) {
// Do something in response to button
Intent intent = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_message);
String message = editText.getText().toString();
intent.putExtra(EXTRA_MESSAGE, message);
}
}
Display MessageActivity.java
package com.example.myfirstapp;
public class DisplayMessageActivity extends Activity {
@SuppressLint("NewApi")
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_display_message);
// Get the message from the intent
Intent intent = getIntent();
String message = intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.EXTRA_MESSAGE);
// Create the text view
TextView textView = new TextView(this);
textView.setTextSize(40);
textView.setText(message);
// Set the text view as the activity layout
setContentView(textView);
// Make sure we're running on Honeycomb or higher to use ActionBar
APIs
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB) {
// Show the Up button in the action bar.
getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
}
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
NavUtils.navigateUpFromSameTask(this);
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
