The installation of ADT-Bundle is as fairly simple as googling the key word "android sdk"
- If you have Ubuntu on 64-bit, then download
wget http://dl.google.com/android/adt/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64.zip ( as today 01/26/2013 )
or go to the following link:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#linux-bundle
- As an Eclipse IDE, you need to unzip the file "adt-bundle-linux-x86_64.zip" in your fav devlopment directory(dev_env_dir).
unzip adt-bundle-linux-x86_64.zip ( assuming you have unzip installed )
- Find and Run the Eclipse application file (dev_env_dir/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/eclipse/eclipse) .
And you are good to go.
- But before that, I want you to be aware of some prerequisite :
You will to install ia32 libraries
This package contains runtime libraries for the ia32/i386 architecture, configured for use on an amd64 or ia64 Debian system running a 64-bit kernel
You need this beause the AVD( Adroind Virttual Device ) are built for 32-bit arch
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
- Now, lastly, you need to install the SDK updates :
From eclipse, open the Android SDK manager and and check to install
- Tools
- "Android 4.x" the APIs you will use in your development. you need at least one ( I installed them all )
- Extras.
