Preparing Eclipse for Android Development
- Launch Eclipse
- Go to Help, then Install new software
- On the textbox that says *work with:, type https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/, then clickAdd
- Choose Developer Tools on the checkboxes, you can choose to ignore the NDK tools
- Review the install details, then click Next
- Accept the terms and conditions, then proceed
- You might get some warnings "about the authenticity of the software you are downloading", just proceed
- A Restart Eclipse window might appear, just click Ok to restart eclipse
- An android welcome dialog will pop. It will ask you to do either one of two things. To install a new android SDK or to use an existing android SDK. Choose the one that makes sense to you.
- I have installed the android SDK already, that is why I chose to use an existing SDK. Browse to the location of your android SDK. Click next
- Finish
