Create an Eclipse Android development environment under Ubuntu

Most Android Developers use Eclipse to develop Android. This article will introduce how to build an Eclipse-based Android development environment in Ubuntu.

First of all, I have installed it through the Ubuntu virtual machine. The following is the installation:

Install Ubuntu Virtual Machine

Install Eclipse

First, install Eclipse, download the linux version of Eclipse jee 3.5, and decompress it. You can set a soft connection for the Eclipse command on the desktop ).

Install and set the Android SDK

Download and install the Android SDK. Http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3.zip download path

Extract the downloaded file to the/opt directory, set the environment variable, and add a line through the/etc/profile file:

 
 

  
  
PATH=$PATH:/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3/tools/  
  
  
 
 
 

In this case, if I connect the Android device t mobile g1:

Adb devices cannot find the device.

You need to use the udev mechanism provided by the linux2.6 kernel. Create a file:

 
 

  
  
sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules  
  
  
 
 
 

Add:

 
 

  
  
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, SYSFS{“High Tech Computer Corp.“}==”0bb4″, MODE=”0666″  
  
  
 
 
 

Then, execute the command to make it executable:

 
 

  
  
chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/50-Android.rules  
  
  
 
 
 

After restarting the system, you can run the following command to view the connected Mobile phone device:

Adb devices

Or execute:

Ddms

The following are the screenshot capture functions of ddms and ddms:

For the screen capture function of ddms and ddms

Install adt plug-in

Use Eclipse's help> install new software... The menu is installed online. The Eclipse installation link of adt is:

Https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

After installation, you must set the Android SDK path for the adt.
