Android Development: detailed Android SDK and ADT Plugin

According to authoritative data show: The current most user-focused smartphone operating system is Android mobile operating system, access to the 70%.1, iOS and Aliyun "Cottage Android" is 15.9% and 2.9% respectively. For this is just launched by the vast number of developers love products. I believe that there are many friends have doubts, today I will summarize my experience of Android development to share with you!

First you need to download the Android SDK and MyEclipse integrated Android Development plug-in ADT, these websites have to provide downloads, but I tried, the official website download speed is very slow, I can not endure, so Google found a compressed version.

[Android development Environment builds].android-sdk_r14-windows.7z

Adt-14.0.0.rar

When the preparations are ready, the formal installation of the configuration will begin. First you need to install the Android SDK. In fact, installing the Android SDK is similar to installing the JDK, and you'll get a compressed package [Android development environment].android-sdk_r14-] After downloading from the download address I provided above. windows.7z, you directly extract the right key to the current folder can, after the decompression, you will get a folder Android-sdk-windows, the next step is to configure the Android SDK environment variables. "My Computer" right button "Properties", select "Advanced" point "environment variable", in the System environment variable, select Path, click "Edit", at the end of the value followed by the Android SDK you just the solution to the directory, specifically see the screenshot below:

Then win+r, input cmd, enter, enter the command in the DOS window android-h, if not prompted "Android is not internal command", it indicates that the Android SDK installation is successful! Detailed operation as shown:

The following is an introduction to the ADT Plug-in installation (links mode installation):

This is the way I like to install MyEclipse plug-ins, I think this is pollution-free, you have to uninstall the plug-in is also more convenient, directly delete link file, although more than direct online access to the official website to download the installation of the way it seems troublesome, but I think it is a very fun thing, hehe !

The specific steps are as follows:

First of all you according to my download address, you will get a compression package adt-14.0.0.rar,14.0.0 is the version number of the plugin, you first directly to extract the right key to the current folder, you will get a ADT-14.0.0, then you double-click the folder, you see the following file directory structure:

The reason I have no Web folders and Site.xml in the screenshot is because I deleted them, and they must be deleted, otherwise the installation will not succeed. If you extract feature and plugins, index.html these are all directly in the ADT-14.0.0 directory, you first have to create a new Eclipse folder, and then cut them all down to the Eclipse folder. Finally must be my screenshot above the directory structure, I provide the ADT download address, I have been processed, direct decompression can be, if you are your own at other addresses to download the ADT Plug-ins, please refer to me above described operation.

Then create a new Notepad file in your MyEclipse installation directory (my myeclipse is installed under d:myeclipse6.5) d:myeclipse6.5 eclipselinks Named Adt.link, and then open with Notepad editor, enter the following: path=d:/adt-14.0.0,d:/adt-14.0.0 is my ADT plugin decompression path, or that sentence: Your decompression path is best not to include Chinese. Then reboot your myeclipse, and you will see two small icons, which indicate that the ADT plugin was installed successfully.

The following is the creation of a configuration-level Android AVD Manager (the Android emulator) for some ADT Plug-ins. Detailed action as shown:

If you are prompted to not find the Adb.exe file after selecting the SDK installation directory, do the following:

Locate the Platform-tools folder in the Extract directory of your Android SDK, find Adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll These 3 files, copy them to the tools directory can be, so simple, haha! Specifically not clear to see screenshots:

If you are prompted to update your ADT plugin when you select the SDK installation directory, download the newer version of the ADT plugin. For example, adt12.0.0,adt14.0.0, specific plug-in download address Google, or you directly according to the download address I provided download, and then decompression, modify the Adt.link file path to solve the problem.

The last thing to do is to create the Android AVD Manager, and the exciting time has come! Specifically, I take a screenshot of my operating procedures to illustrate it:

After the creation of the completion of the selection of an emulator, click Start, look at the effect after the simulator startup, start the simulator compared to occupy the system resources, the startup process may take a little time, my machine started AVD Manager, spent 8 minutes, I thought the crash, The start of the process is best to put your what security guards or QQ housekeeper and some related anti-virus software temporarily shut down, otherwise it may be stuck in there to start not up, this I experimented, I in the start-up process, the QQ housekeeper program exit, the simulator screen immediately displayed.

If you see a similar graphic effect, which means that the Android AVD manager was created successfully, the Android development environment was built.

OK, the above is the Android SDK and ADT plug-in installation of the use of some experience, hope to help everyone.
