Fixes #2115

This PR fixes an issue where creating Java or Kotlin source files fails to show the appropriate source file creation dialog when the source root is src/main/kotlin.

Problem

The sourceDialogFor() function in NewFileAction.kt determines which dialog to display based on the selected directory's path.
Previously, the function only matched Java source directories using JAVA_PATH_REGEX . As a result, directories under src/main/kotlin were not recognized as source directories, causing the source file creation dialog to be skipped.

Changes

Added KOTLIN_PATH_REGEX to match Kotlin source directories.
Updated sourceDialogFor() to recognize both Java and Kotlin source directories and display the appropriate source creation dialog.

Testing

Tested on a physical Android device.
Verified that the source file creation dialog is displayed when creating files under src/main/kotlin .
Verified that the existing Java source directory behavior remains unchanged.

📝 Summary
  • Show the Java/Kotlin source-creation dialog for directories under src/main/kotlin.
  • Update package-path detection to recognize java, kotlin, and kt source directories with path-boundary checks.
  • Resolve automatic activity layouts under res/layout for Java and Kotlin source paths.
  • The author reports testing on a physical Android device and confirming that existing Java source-directory behavior remains unchanged.
  • Risk: ProjectWriter also treats directories named kt as source roots. No current review findings or test-run results were supplied.
📝 Summary

Walkthrough

The file creation action and project writer now match Kotlin source paths with directory boundaries. The action also resolves layout directories for Java and Kotlin package paths and routes Kotlin paths to SourceDialog.JAVA.

Changes

Kotlin file creation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Recognize Kotlin paths and select the creation dialog
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/actions/filetree/NewFileAction.kt, app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/utils/ProjectWriter.java
The path regexes require a slash or path end after source-directory names. Automatic layout resolution matches either java or kotlin before the exact package path and replaces that suffix with res/layout. Kotlin paths select SourceDialog.JAVA.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Medium



Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to a93e9

Creating an activity directly from src/main/kotlin can produce the wrong package and file location, with its layout outside res/layout. This is a bounded source-creation issue, but root-level activity creation should be corrected or worked around before relying on that workflow.

Add a Kotlin routing assertion.

SourceDialogRoutingTest calls sourceDialogFor() through route(), but its source-folder assertions cover only Java and C++. If the Kotlin routing condition is removed, this test can still pass. Add a Kotlin source-path assertion.

Suggested fix

+	fun `a kotlin source folder opens the class dialog`() {

🟠 Major · Recognize kotlin in ProjectWriter.SOURCE_PATH_REGEX. · NewFileAction.kt:671

app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/actions/filetree/NewFileAction.kt:671
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Recognize kotlin in ProjectWriter.SOURCE_PATH_REGEX.

NewFileAction routes src/main/kotlin/... to SourceDialog.JAVA, but ProjectWriter.getPackageName() still matches only java|kt. It returns null, and Kotlin generation then fails at packageName.isNotEmpty() before createFile() runs.

The activity layout helper already recognizes kotlin, so extending SOURCE_PATH_REGEX is the required shared fix. Without it, the layout flow is also skipped by the generation failure, and its package path would otherwise be "null" instead of the package directory.

Suggested fix
-		private static final String SOURCE_PATH_REGEX = "/.*/src/.*/java|kt";
+		private static final String SOURCE_PATH_REGEX = "/.*/src/.*/java|kotlin|kt";
