[Q] Setting up Eclipse - General Questions and Answers

Hey all I was wondering if someone could help me out in installing and setting up eclipse. I tried before and ended up installing something called glassfish3 or something like that so what would be ideal is a list of links to the downloads I need to get maybe in the order I need to install them in? =P It would really be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Anyone? Please! I have the JDK & Java & Eclipse installed and Eclipse will not startup, I get an error....
"A Java Runtime Enviroment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) must be available in order to run Eclipse. No Java Virtual machine was found after searching the following locations:
C:\eclipse\jre\bin\javaw.exe
javaw.exe in your current PATH"
Someone suggested that I need to install the SDK but I thought that was only needed specifically for Android? & Before i setup Android I'd like to have Eclipse fully functional to avoid and problems that could occur. I installed Eclipse for EE Developers or whatever, the biggest file they and I installed JDK 6 Update 21
Eclipse (Top One) : eclipse*dot*org/downloads/
Java : oracle*dot*com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,

I'm almost close of not asking any more questions but I had problems with apk manager, I got it right, and I had problems with Avabox, and I got that right but now I'm having problems with Eclipse. I installed basically both files of Eclipse the big file and the small fiile (I didn't know which one I needed).
when I open the eclipse program I get this message:
"Failed to load the JNI shared library : c:\program files (x86)\java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll
I don't know what this means. can someone help me? thanks.

Sorry I'm also a noob at installing eclipse, but thought this might be a good place to ask my question too. I found a tutorial on how to install everything (i.e. eclipse, JDK, and SDK) put it said I needed to change my PATH to point to /tools and now after doing that I can't open eclipse. I go the same error you did in your first post. I'm thinking I needed the other lines that were in the PATH, but now I don't know what they were.

If you follow the steps here, it is fairly simple and easy:

You have to download first de java JDK (jre is not enought) and then download and instal eclipse... Just follow the instructions on the link
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

I've gone through this and had eclipse up and running. Even created some AVDs. Here is the part that screwed it up though.
"On Windows, right-click on My Computer, and select Properties. Under the Advanced tab, hit the Environment Variables button, and in the dialog that comes up, double-click on Path (under System Variables). Add the full path to the tools/ and platform-tools/ directories to the path. "

You should be okay using Ubuntu 9.10. I currently have that installed, but haven't done anything yet with it. Although, I actually plan on switching to Fedora 12 -- since I'm more familiar with the Red Hat distro's.
If you need help getting started, you should look into these tutorials below, provided and documented by Gbhil from Android Central.
How to create custom Icons:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-hero-roms-hacks/6070-changing-hero-application-icons.html
ROM FAQ/How to Build ROMS:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/hacking/6037-general-rom-faq.html
How to setup Ubuntu for the Android SDK:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/hac...ramming-envrionment-using-ubuntu-windows.html
OR here:
http://www.futuredesktop.org/developing_android_apps_on_ubuntu.html
Gbhil does an excellent job explaining how things work and how to begin your journey with Android development, hope that helps.
I've used the links above to begin making a custom icon pack, and hopefully soon enough another AOSP ROM.
I use Ubuntu 9.10 for everything I do. Make sure you're root user in that by doing these commands in the terminal:
Code:
sudo passwd
*your root password here*
*repeat root password*
Then, log out of that user, and click "other" to log in. Type root for username, and the password you set with sudo passwd for password. Note, Ubuntu 9.10 is also referred to as Ubuntu Karmic or Karmic Koala, so those are the same as 9.10.
Thankx But could you help with more?

All the links I gave you will give you the information to get started. Again, follow this think, it even says what its going to help you install:
We are now going to install these programs
• The Ubuntu Linux Desktop.
• Sun's Java Runtime (JRE) and Development Kit (JDK).
Java Runtime is only needed to run the Eclipse IDE. Android has its own optimized Java VM (Dalvik).
• The Eclipse IDE.
• The Android Software Developer's Kit (SDK).
• The Android Developer Tool (ADT), a special Eclipse plugin.
http://www.futuredesktop.org/developing_android_apps_on_ubuntu.html
If you want to test if Java works -- you can run the commands java --version, which java and echo $JAVA_HOME (which java and echo $JAVA_HOME should correctly state where you chose to set your environment variables when you run them). Otherwise you could open a text editor (I use VIM) and write the universal "hello world" in Java and test Java that way to make sure the program runs.
Lastly, everyone here is more than willing to help you -- but try to search for the information via Google, here on XDA, or other Android forums yourself first -- you'd be surprised that they probably already have your answer.

I don't think Ubuntu 9.10 is bad -- but I've always worked with Red Hat/CentOS and at work we use RHEL servers, so Fedora is an easy switch for me.

Configuring ADT plugin for eclipse -- no Android option in preferences

I'm trying to setup eclipse for Android but have run into an issue.
I'm following the guide here: bah, I can't post outside links from being a new user. But if you go to developer (dot) android (dot) com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html -- This is the part that I'm stuck on.
I've got eclipse to download the ADT plugin, but when trying to follow "Configuring the ADT plugin" I open the preferences via Windows > Preferences (step 1), but there is no "Android" option on the left hand side as indicated in step (2).
Any idea why this would be happening?
Thanks,
~kb
EDIT: This should really be in the base android development forum. I've messaged a moderator to hopefully get it moved, sorry for posting it in the wrong forum.
The Android option is not coming up under Window>Preferences in Eclipse after installing the ADT?
One reason that this may be occurring is because of Windows 7 security settings. Try starting up Eclipse with “Run as administrator.”
1) Start Eclipse with ‘Run as administrator’ (It may ask to change workspace directory. I just made it c:\workspace temporarily.)
2) Download the ADT plug-in with Eclipse as directed in the Android documentation
3) Profit
Note: I did not have to run as administrator every time. Once it was installed I could see it when I started Eclipse normally, but I had to set the Android SDK directory again.

this is happening to me also, but it was on ubuntu after i upgraded from lucid to maverick. ...i hate upgrading ubuntu...
Did you guys find any solution yet? I can't see "Android" under preferences either. And I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 recently.
I don't think the dev kit works well with Eclipse 3.6.
Try the 3.5 download
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-developers/galileosr2
It is 3.5.
eclipse : issue fixed
I just signed in as I wanted to let you know about that issue I got.. fixed !
I tried several tricks so to speak, uninstalled Eclipse, uninstalled ADT plugin, reinstall the SDK, tried with and without adding the SKD path to the $PATH...
Using linux, I just deleted the .eclipse directory that was in my home directory.
You will have to add the repository for the ADT plugin to be installed, install the plugin... and restart Eclipse (not to mention you'll have to reinstall ALL the plugin you added, correct me if IM wrong).
Then you should be able to set the preferences about the SDK path... and have a new menu item (new project -> android )
Dont ask me what happened while upgrading my ubuntu from 10.04 to 10.10, I actually didnt take some time to investigate about it (ubuntu64 10.10)
(sorry about my english by the way)
Cheers,
Fabrice (France)
you're welcome.
Thanks LinuxFab, I'll give it a try.
Did this work?
I'm using a mac, so I'm wondering if this fix at least worked for ubuntu, lemme know! Thanks

Install adt 21

Someone please tell me page where how to install adt plugin for eclipse juno is described
Hi caponer, to do that u need to provide the url https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse from within eclipse. Then provide the location of android sdk. You do not need eclipse or adt to develop android apps though. You can use sdk instead.
Baaaaa I get http method not allowed error. Please help
That's because you used wrong url. Type https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse
That solved it. Thx
Its just hung on calculating requirements and dependencies
Wait
Ok I have installed the adt plugin - the ndk tools because some component was missing and now I am downloading sdk rev to resolve version issue.
Atta boy. No quickly write hello world app and post it

[Q] Problem with app development framework

Windows 7 64 bit
Razr Maxx
Tasker
I've programmed in Java and decided to try to add some functionality to Tasker.
I installed Eclipse, wrote some code, but couldn't resolve a problem with "git", which I thought was due to the environment setup. I removed that installation, downloaded the adk bundle, which includes Eclipse, and unzipped it into an AndroidDev directory.
When I try to run Eclipse, the following appears:
Default Failed to load JNI shared library
"C:\Users\Anne\AndroidDev\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321\eclipse\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll"
Is this a problem with PATH or ?
Thanks.

Oops. It worked. Sorry guys
Just for the record ; the problem you faced is due to JDK not being an environment variable/on the build path of your OS.
After making sure JDK is downloaded (java development kit), add it to your environment variables/build path. The error shall be immediately gone.
