Build Android development environment on ubuntu14.04

On a whim these days, I want to write Android software on Ubuntu. So just find some information on the Internet to build an Android environment on Ubuntu, the result is either incomplete or outdated. So I wrote down the process of setting up my Android environment so that I could forget about the reference and give some inspiration to the readers of this blog post.

There are several steps to building an Android environment:

1. You have to install Java.

Download link java

Choose the latest version, unzip the JDK to the folder you want to put, mine is /var/android/java.

Then configure the environment variables:

sudo gedit/etc/profile, added at the end of the profile file

Export Java_home=/var/android/java

Export classpath=.: $JAVA _home/lib/tools.jar: $JAVA _home/lib/dt.jar

Export path= $PATH: $JAVA _home/bin

The red ones are the ones you need to change.

Then reboot the system and enter the Java and JAVAC tests on the terminal successfully

2. Install Eclipse

: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

What about the other decompression?

I'm extracting it to /var/android/jeclipse .

It's better to manage.

3.ConfigurationADT

Launch Eclipse, menu help, Install New software ...- Available softwareon the Select tab,

Click on the right button "Add ..."and the dialog box is set up as follows:

Name: ADT (Feel free to fill in)

location:http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

Click "OK" to return, click "Select All"after returning and click "Next >" two times.

You can also download the ready-made files and install them directly from the Internet.

4. Set the SDK path

EclipseAfter rebooting, selectWindow > Preferences ..., in the Properties box that opens, selectAndroid,InSDK LocationIn the Enter yourAndroid SDKdirectory, and then press theApplyButton.

Download Link: Click to open the link

Update after download

after the download is complete, unzip the terminal into the root directory of the SDK and execute: T ools/android Update Sdk–u

You can start the same updates as in Windows.

The android1.0-4.2 in platform of the SDK are clicked to open the link. Celestial estimates can not download it, I was the wall of the arduous download.
