Continuing from where we left I suppose by now you would have downloaded the android bundle. Extract it using any compression/decompression tool. You will find in it Eclipse IDE. Open it and now we will configure Eclipse for Android 2.2 development , follow the following instructions-
1. Open Eclipse with Admin privileges (Right click.Run as administrator)
2. Go to Windows menu and open Android SDK Manager.
3. You will get checkboxes for each respective Android version available. You have to check Android 2.2(API Level 8). We will get further into the details of API etc. later. Refer the screenshots.
4. Click Install Packages. A license agreement window appears with probably 3 radio buttons. You have to select Accept All.
This particular download in most cases is not resume supported. So do not disconnect your internet connection or you might have to re-download it again from beginning. After your downloading is finished you will get the status as "installed"
Now we are done with it. In case you face any problems leave comments. You can also send me screenshots of the problems you are facing on my email id please don't poke me on my facebook account. This post is dedicated to my friend Himanshu Singh for his immense support(which he never gave and emotionally blackmailed me to write his name). :-)

ReplyDeleteBrijesh, is this where I can post a question/trouble?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to flunk so early, but I installed twice and I don't get any sign of Eclipse or anything other than my regular programs. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit. I should just find a program/group in Start->All Programs, right?
You do not get a regular shortcut button for eclipse in Windows7 start->All programs. Eclipse folder has an eclipse.exe icon in it. Just Right Click->Create Shortcut(Desktop Shortcut).That particular icon is the exceutable file from where you can start your Eclipse IDE
