Standard newbie problem. When you put anything into the "res" directory, the next (reasonably complete) rebuild causes the R.java file to be created (or recreated) in your "gen" directory. The R class (and its inner classes) basically just contains named constants that identify items in the "res" directory. (Note that if this isn't happening you probably have a substantial problem with your development environment.)
You don't have to do anything special for R.java to be automatically generated, and you definitely don't want to touch it. There are a few "advanced" cases where you might refer to an R class in a different project, but that's not for beginners. And since the R class is created in the same package as your regular Java code, you don't need to explicitly import it.
