Prepare tools

Java 1.6 For Mac OS X-running Eclipse on Mac reminds you of the need to support libraries during Java 6 Runtime

Java 1.8 For Mac OS X-jdk used For development

Eclipse-the version used for development is Eclipse Luna Release (4.4.0)

Android Development Tools (ADT)-Android Development tool plug-in

Android SDK-required...

ADT Installation Method

Installing other tools is a simple installation. There are multiple ways to install ADT:

First:

1. Open Eclipse-Hlpe-Install New Software...

2. Enter the https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ press enter in the Work with item

3. Wait until Pending is complete. Check the Development Tools and click Next.

Second (the first type of network is not good, it is a test of patience, and the second type is manual installation ):

1. Search for the ADT installation package using the search engine. You can go to this URL to see the deployment.

2. decompress the package to the dropins folder under the Eclipse directory and restart Eclipse.

Third:

1. Use search engine to find the ADT installation package, download and decompress it.

2. Open Eclipse-Hlpe-Install New Software...

3. Click Add-Local...-ADT directory-OK.

4. Wait for the Next step and restart Eclipse.

After the ADT is installed, the Android Application Project cannot be found in File-New of Eclipse, which can be found in Other. To directly display the Android Application Project in File-New, you can also use the following methods:

1. A new Android project is created successfully.

2. Open the menu Window-New Window, and a New Window appears. Now, check whether there is an Android Application Project in the File-New menu. After restarting Eclipse, it will still exist.

Configure the Android SDK

1, download Android SDK, you can go to the official website to download (the official website to open the speed is very slow), you can also go to the http://www.cnblogs.com/bjzhanghao/archive/2012/11/14/android-platform-sdk-download-mirror.html

2. decompress the downloaded Android SDK, open the Eclipse-Preferences dialog box, find the Android SDK, Click Browse, and select the SDK directory.

Figure 1 Android SDK directory Selection

3. After the Android SDK directory is configured, you can use Android SDK Manager to manage various versions of sdks and Tools.

Figure 2 Android SDK Manager

4. After the SDK is installed, you should configure the Android Virtual Machine. Without the Android virtual machine, you cannot debug the program.

Summary

To build an Android development environment, you also need to configure environment variables in Windows. This operation is not required in OS X. The installation methods are similar. Due to system differences, various problems may occur during the setup process. Don't worry, be patient, and believe that the search engine is powerful.

Build an Android Development Environment

I have a document for you.
I have just configured the ADT version. If it is relatively high, you need to obtain an avd.

An error occurred while setting up the eclipse + Android development environment !!

Build an Android Development Environment

1. Download the Android SDK

Code.google.com/android/download.html

This is the official website. after entering the website, follow the process and select an SDK package suitable for your own platform (Windows) to download.
After downloading, decompress the package and you can use it.
