Install android in Linux recently. Follow the installation steps step by step. However, when the preferences in eclipse is updated to point to the SDK folder
Wait, but in window -->
Android options cannot be found in the left sidebar of preferences. I have already installed Windows on my laptop. It's strange why I installed it again.
Current problem. I searched the internet and found no solution. Many people reply that android is not correctly installed.
SDK, but in fact I'm sure I have installed it correctly, and I have installed it once before, and I know how to install the SDK. Finally, I found the cause in a forum [Link
].

I believe the issue is that the android plugin requires Java Development
Tools (jdt -- the android SDK is Java-based). The Aptana Studio
Stand-alone does not ship these Java tools by default as those users who
Wish to program in Java can download eclipse instead and use Aptana as
Plugin. My guess is that android is failing to load because of a jdt
Dependency, and that is why the preference fails to show.
Please try installing androidAnd
Aptana into a copy
Eclipse. That shocould work fine.

That is the reason for jdt. If the Aptana plug-in is installed, the problem can be solved. I tried it. Actually, the android option is displayed in the left sidebar of preferences.
To sum up,Solution
As follows:
1) Verify that the ADT has been correctly installed. Follow the steps on the android Website step by step.
2) If the ADT is correctly installed, it may be that Aptana is not installed. Go to the Aptana website http://www.radrails.org/download/to download the package. First select Eclipse plug-in to install the package, and you will see the prompt. Follow the prompts to proceed.
3) Restart eclipse. Android finally appears in the left column of preferences.
Good luck!
