Requirement of Pre-requisites:
AJDT (for
AspectJ conversion)
Eclipse
setup
ADT Plug-in
for Eclipse
Android SDK
setup
Eclipse:.
First of
all need to download Eclipse from following URL:
Version: Eclipse Classic 3.7.2 (Windows 32
Bit)
Now just
extract it from zip or .rar, then located the downloaded folder in local drive
to control it. You will get here ‘eclipse.exe’ which can run Eclipse framework.
When
Eclipse framework will open, Then it will ask for the local physical location on
‘workspace’ folder (‘Workspace’ is that physical or memory location where the complete
Eclipse project already saved). Create workspace folder anywhere in your local
machine drive and point that location.
By that way
Eclipse has configured successfully. Now it can open Eclipse, write any test program
and confirm it can save program at workspace folder.
Set Up the Android SDK:
Now
requirement is set up and configured the Android with Eclipse. Actually it is
for development procedure but if we require to check to confirm how’s the
application work we can easily check it on the application in eclipse.
Now you can
download Android-sdk-windows (android-sdk_r18-windows) from application from the
following URL:
You need to
just extract or unzip the downloaded .rar folder (android-sdk_r18-windows)
anywhere in your local drive. You will get here ‘SDK Manager.exe’ (which always
open the Android SDK Manager) and ‘AVD Manager.exe’ (which can open the AVD
Manager).
i) SDK Manager: But you need to installing the
Android packages with following steps:
• Execute the ‘SDK Manager.exe’ (It
will be found in the ‘android-sdk-windows’ folder)
• You will get the list of package to install
available in Android SDK manager.
• Install any of the package which is
required (like Android 4.0.3 (API 15))
ii) AVD
Manager: This is used
for creating the Virtual Device (emulator)
• Execute the ‘AVD Manager.exe’ (It
can also be found in the ‘android-sdk-windows’ folder)
• ‘Android Virtual Device Manager’
window open independently
• Now Click on New> and follow the
following steps as shown in below screenshot:
 |
| Eclipse configuration with Android SDK |
Name: This is name of Virtual device or
emulator.
Target: version of
Android emulator which is in use
CPU/ABI:
Use ARM for Android
SD Card ‘Size’: it can be
512MB or 1GB
Snapshot: checked
(best practice) [-It will continue on track if any activity killed, dead or
process discarded or crashed, we can restore the session if its enabled ]
Skin ‘Built-in’: HVGA (for
Android)
Click on ‘CreateAVD’. It will
create the AVD which will be seen in ‘Android Virtual Device Manager’ under
‘AVD Name’ section.
Select the
AVD name and click on ‘Start’. ‘Launch Option’ pop-up will be open. Then click
on ‘Launch’. It will open the Android emulator.
Eclipse
ADT plug-in:
ADT
plug-in can extends the ability of Eclipse to help you quickly set up new
Android SDK projects, build an application UI, debug your application, and
export the signed (or unsigned) application packages (APKs) for distribution.
To install
ADT plug-in:
•
Start the Eclipse> Go to on Help > Install New Software....
•
Click on Add, from
top-right corner.
•
In the Add Repository
dialog which will appears, enter "ADT Plug-in" as the Name and
use following URL for the Location:
•
Now Click on OK
Now you
need to restart the Eclipse. It will automatically ask for the Android SDK (and
that we have already installed as with above explained steps) so now Just need
to give the location of Android SDK path.
Now while looking on the Eclipse, TWO newly added
icons will be shown, these TWO icons are for ‘AVD Manager’ and ‘Android
SDK Manager’.
Now
Eclipse is configured / Installed with Android SDK.
