Android

hello everyone!

As a part of my college project, i am working on Android to create an application. To work with Android, i need to download Eclipse. That is where the problem starts

I downloaded Eclipse Classic 3.6.2 from eclipse.org

The download was successful and so was the extraction. but, when i try to run the exe file, it says - "error in connection, can't open" or "this is not supported by win32"

What can i do?? Help!

 

i have the latest version of Java. i use windows XP service pack 3 and the .RAR file of eclipse was not downloaded from ftp. i downloaded it from an http site.

 

Go to Android Studio

 

I think he probably solved this 3 years ago.

That said, Android Studio still has some major bugs.

 

Getting Started : Setting up Android Development Environment



Installing Android SDK

In order to start developing for Android you need the Software Development Kit. You can download it for Windows, Linux or for Mac OS X.

Once downloaded you have to install it, on Windows just start the executable file.

Installing Java JDK and Eclipse

The Java Development Kit is needed to develop Android applications since Android is based on Java and XML. Writing Android code is being done using an editor, the best supported ,and in my opinion, the best one around is Eclipse. Eclipse is an opensource freeware editor that is capable of supporting a wide range of programming languages.

Installing the ADT Plugin

Once Eclipse is installed we need to connect the Android SDK with Eclipse, this is being done by the ADT Plugin. Installing this plugin is easily done using eclipse.

Start Eclipse. Navigate in the menu to Help > Install new software..
Press ‘ Add..’, in the new window that pops up you can fill in Name with an arbitrary name. A good suggestion could be “Android Plugin” and in the location you have to paste :

https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

Click ‘Ok’. Make sure the checkbox for Developer Tools is selected and click “Next”.
Click ‘Next’. Accept al the license agreements, click ‘Finish’ and restart Eclipse.
To configure the plugin : choose Window > Preferences
Select ‘Android’ on the left panel and browse for the Android SDK you downloaded in the first step. (On windows : C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk)
Click apply and you’re ready and ok !
Adding platforms and components

On windows, start the SDKManager.exe . Located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk and install all platforms and components.

You’re ready to start coding now !

Happy coding,

Yes, but It is updated and improved almost every week.

 

I am aware, I use it. However, for the OP, Android Studio didn't exist at the time anyway.

0.4.4 fixed my issue with R not being generated after cleaning a project, even when basically empty.

 

yes, I also have a problem with R.java
I just do not pay attention to this red underline. And a program at compile without errors.

The only noticeable problem is the inability to compile the project without the Internet:cry

Maybe you know how to work with the AS in offline mode?

 

I couldn't even compile

The gradle build system is the reason for Internet access being required.


Go to AS prefs (I'm on a mac, so its Android Studio > Preferences).

Compiler > Gradle > Check offline mode. Requires 0.4.0 or higher.

 

Thank you for the advice, I'll try
