failed to init recognizer java.io.FileNotFoundException sync/assets.lst - pocketsphinx

Question

when I run my model I got this error :

failed to init recognizer java.io.FileNotFoundException sync/assets.lst

but inside my asset there isn't this file (assets.lst):

I don't understand this section of article :

http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/wiki/tutorialandroid#including_resource_files
Copy app/asset.xml build file from demo application into your application into same folder app.
Edit app/build.gradle build file to run assets.xml, just as in android demo:

I'm using android studio and I have not app directory in my model .

Please show us a screenshot of your entire project structure - you should have the app folder. Let us see your project folder structure to confirm. — ishmaelMakitla, Sep 14 '16 at 06:56
Is there `app ` directory for each `model ` or each `project` ? — S.M_Emamian, Sep 14 '16 at 07:03
You should have `app` directory for the project - and this is where the application's source code will be located. — ishmaelMakitla, Sep 14 '16 at 07:11

I resolved this by manually cleaning up /HelloWorld/app/build.gradle to include all dependencies. File is,

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
compileSdkVersion 28
defaultConfig {
    applicationId "net.blepsias.speakeasy"
    minSdkVersion 15
    targetSdkVersion 28
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
}
}
dependencies {
implementation project(':pocketsphinx')
implementation project(':models')
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'
}

The previous file that was causing the failed-to-init error was generated by Android Studio had other stuff and was missing the pocketsphinx.aar reference. Lots of ways to skin this cat most likely...

Follow these steps :

create a folder called sync on app/src/main/assets
copy your created language model (https://cmusphinx.github.io/wiki/tutoriallm/) or all the content of sync folder in demo project which is located at : models/src/main/assets/sync to the created folder on step one on your project.
add the following lines to your app/build.gradle :

ant.importBuild 'assets.xml' preBuild.dependsOn(list, checksum) clean.dependsOn(clean_assets)
sync your gradle and run your project with codes provided from demo
