Native environment: Kubuntu 14.04LTS 64-bit

(1) Install the Android SDK:

: Http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html recommends the direct download of ADT Bundle, which integrates Eclipse and SDK.  

After downloading, unzip to the current directory, and then move the extracted files to "/root or/usr/local".

Unzip adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20140321. Zip sudo mv adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20140321 /usr/local

We can see that the adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20140321 directory contains the Eclipse and SDK folders, which are then configured.

(2) Locate the Android SDK directory, add global variables, set the tools directory to run the environment to the SDK;

Root privileges, added in/etc/profile (if added in ~/.BASHRC under current user permissions)

Export android_home=/usr/local/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20140321/sdkexport PATH= $PATH: ${android _home}/platform-tools:${android_home}/tools:${android_home}/build-tools/android-4.4. 2

After the configuration is complete, you need to use the source command to make the configuration file effective.

source/etc/~/BASHRC

(3) See if ADB can be successfully executed.

There will be a small problem, the system will be prompted to find the ADB, here need to install ANDROID-TOOLS-ADB

sudo Install android-tools-adb

After the installation is complete, enter ADB at the terminal to see the following information

You will be prompted to install Eclipse-platform. When you are finished, you can open eclipse.
