Second, Hello world1. Toggle Perspective View
We'll switch the perspective to Java, locate the Perspective button in the upper-right corner and select Java in the popup window todetermine:
The toolbar has changed a little bit, with two more keys : On the left is SDK Manager, on the right is the Android virtual Settings Manager, the AVD(android Vsan) Manager. We're going to do it right away.
2. Create an AVD
The AVD(android virtual device) is the virtual appliance that the Android app runs. To build an Android app to run, you must create an AVD, and You can configure a lot of running projects on each AVD.
Click a small button on the toolbar like a phone to pop up the dialog box:
Point New, let's create a new device:the SD card will generate an equivalent size file in the system to emulate the SD card, so it should not be set too large.
Click OK to create the new success.
Device Definition: Device definitions
The first four are four kinds of devices . Nexus, followed by screen size and different resolutions
3. Create the Hello World Project
Click File--New--Android application Project

Bin binaries, compiled files
Libs third-party jar files that refer to third-party code
Res is also a resource file, Unlike assets , where the generated files have IDs

or in Right-click on HelloWorld,Run as->android application:
The first boot may take a few minutes, please wait patiently:
Hello world! Although no code has been written yet, the classic Hello World interface appears. Once you see this interface, your Android code tour is officially set to sail . have fun!
