Google provides tools to develop Android applications. You can choose between Eclipse or IntelliJ based tools. This guide describes both approaches, but the focus is on the Eclipse based tooling. Tip Selecting an IDE is primarily based on personal preferences. The team at Google plans to support both the Eclipse as well as the IntelliJ based tools. The author of this text is a long term Eclipse user, contributor and committer and therefore selects Eclipse as his primary tooling for Android development.

2.1. System requirements Development for Android can be done on a reasonably sized computer. For a nice experience a modern computer is recommended, for example, a 2.6 GHz CPU with at least 8 GB of memory. An SSD speeds up the start of the Android emulator significantly.
2. REQUIREMENTS 2.2. Requirements for using a 64-bit Linux The Android SDK is 32-bit, therefore on a 64-bit Linux system you need to have the package ia32libs installed. For Ubuntu you can do this via the following command. # Ubuntu 12.04 apt-get install ia32-libs # Ubuntu 13.04 sudo apt-get install libc6-i386 lib32stdc++6 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5 # Ubuntu 13.10 sudo aptget install libc6-i386 lib32stdc++6 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5 lib32z1 Please check your distribution documentation if you are using a different flavor of Linux.

2.3. LINUX AND OPENGL - FAILED TO LOAD LIBGL.SO On Ubuntu 13.04 you also have to install the OpenGL support. This can be done on Ubuntu 13.04 via following command. # install OpenGL support sudo apt-get install libgl1mesa-dev Please check your distribution documentation if you are using a different flavor of Linux.

3. INSTALL ANDROID DEVELOPER TOOLS 3.1. Download packaged Android Developer Tools Google provides a packaged and configured Android development environment based on the Eclipse IDE calledAndroid Developer Tools. Under the following URL you find an archive file which includes all required tools for Android development: Getting the Android SDK.

3. INSTALL ANDROID DEVELOPER TOOLS 3.2. Stand-alone ADT installation Extract the zip file and start the Android Developer Tools (Eclipse) which are located in the eclipse folder. You can do this by doubleclicking on the eclipse native launcher (e.g., eclipse.exe under Windows).

3. INSTALL ANDROID DEVELOPER TOOLS 3.3. Update an existing Eclipse IDE See Section 7, “Updating an Eclipse IDE for Android development” for a description on how to update your existing Eclipse IDE to perform Android development.

4. INSTALL ANDROID SDK VERSION
Tip If you chose the packaged Android Developer Tools download based on the Eclipse IDE, the Android SDK is located in the sdk folder of the extracted archive file.

4.1. Using the Android SDK manager The Android SDK Manager allows you to install specific versions of the Android API. Select Window → Android SDK Manager from the Eclipse menu or use the tools/android program from your Android SDK installation.

4.1. USING THE ANDROID SDK MANAGER The Android SDK Manager allows you to install and delete Android packages. Select the version of Android you would like to develop for from the tree and press the Install button. The following screenshot shows the selection for the API 18 version of Android. Refer the previous slide Press the Install button and accept the license for all packages. After the installation is completed, restart the Eclipse IDE.

4.2. INSTALL SUPPORT LIBRARY In the Android SDK Manager select Extras and install the Android support library.  Android currently has several versions of the library, the v4, v7 and v13 version which are valid as of the respective API level of Android. The usage of a higher version of the support library is typically based on the lower version. For example, the support for the action bar for Android devices with version API 7 is included in the support library v7. This library requires the v4 library, too. 

5. ACCESSING THE ANDROID SDK CODE IN ECLIPSE
TOPS Technologies - Android training program.
5.1. INSTALLATION During Android development it is useful to have access to the Android source code. You can download the Android source code via the Android SDK Manager by selecting the Sources for Android SDK. The sources are stored in the path_to_android_sdk/sources/androidxx directory. where xx is the API level of Android, e.g., 19 for the Android 4.4 version.

5.2. CONNECT SOURCE TO YOUR PROJECT
TOPS Technologies - Android training program.
To connect the sources with the android.jar file in your Android project, right-click on your android.jar in thePackage Explorer view and select Properties → Java Source Attachment. Select External location and press theExternal Folder button. Browse to the path_to_android_sdk/sources/androidxx location and press the OK button.
5.3. VALIDATE 

Validate that you can see the Android source code. For example, open the View class via the Open Type dialog (Ctrl+T) and ensure that you see the source code.

6. ANDROID STUDIO 6.1. Android Studio based on IntelliJ IDEA Google also provides a modified version of the IntelliJ IDE called Android Studio for developing Android applications. 6.2. Installation This book uses Eclipse for its description, but a very similar functionality is available for Android Studio. SeeInstalling Android Studio to learn how to install and use it.

7. UPDATING AN ECLIPSE IDE FOR ANDROID DEVELOPMENT The following description assumes that you already have a flavor of the Eclipse IDE installed which you want to update to develop Android applications. Use the Eclipse update manager via Help → Install new software and start the android to install all available components for the Android Development Tools (ADT) from the following URL: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ After the new Android development components are installed, you will be prompted to install the Android SDK. You can use the following wizard or go to the next section to learn how to do it manually.

After the installation of the ADT the Eclipse tooling allows to download the Android SDK automatically. Alternatively you can also manually download the Android SDK from the Android SDK download page. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html The download contains a zip file, which you can extract to any place in your file system, e.g., on my Linux system I placed it into the /home/vogella/android-sdks folder. Avoid using spaces in the path name, otherwise you may experience problems with the usage of the Android SDK. You also have to define the location of the Android SDK in the Eclipse Preferences. In Eclipse open the Preferences dialog via the menu Window → Preferences. Select Android and enter the installation path of the Android SDK.
