Idea builds Android Wear development environment, Android Wear,i ' m comming!

With Google releasing Android Wear and then having Samsung's Gear,lg G Watch and Moto 360, Apple has released Apple Watch, and there may be another war in the smart watch industry in the future. Of course, this is only the author's personal views, for reference only.

As a developer, of course, it is only the development of watches, so let's build the Android Wear development environment!

To build the Android Wear development environment, we need the following software IntelliJ 13.1.3,ANDROID-SDK 23.0.02.

First you need to download and install the ANDROID-SDK, here is the 23.0.02, then need to install the following package

Note, do not use the 4.4.2 Android Wear SDK, that is the preview version, now seems to be unable to use, anyway, I can not use the phone connection.

And then install idea, about what you understand as Android studio, Android Studio is just some of the features that you'll need to specify the SDK path when creating a new Android project.

Next is the new project, the new is as follows (note: The subject must be none)

After next

And then all the way next, and the final finish is done.

Open Mainactivity.java, after the creation of Android will find that idea will always error, in fact, because of the Gradle as the Android construction tools, and the celestial network can not download foreign gradle tools

The workaround is to install it manually, or to use a proxy server. The author uses shadowsocks as the agent.

Manual Installation: Http://www.cnblogs.com/jinmingjie/p/3470101.html (This is also the way to mention the Android development environment, you can also see)

Use the proxy server to ctrl-alt-s and then search for proxy configuration.

After installing the Gradle tool, you need to add the dependent libraries needed for Android Wear development in the Gradle build file.

Under Build.gradle in the app directory, add

Then open the Androidmanifest.xml file, in the above will be asked to synchronize the Gradle file, click Sync, gradle is automatically download we add dependent library files. (also need to use proxy here)

When it was done, we found that the project had gone wrong.

The next step is to create a new Android Wear virtual machine, select

Open the AVD Manager and create a new virtual machine as follows

Then run the virtual machine

Then run the project

You can see our familiar hello World, haha! Done

Finally, the Android development environment did not use eclipse to do things because I really do not build up in eclipse, so I tried the idea, then I will try Eclipse's Android Wear environment to build, then share with you, The next one may say how to connect the phone to the simulator, so that the notification on the phone can run to the simulator up.

I am a novice learning computer, if there is not the right place, welcome to the great gods to criticize. If you encounter any problems in the building, you can leave a message to me, we discuss the exchange.
