[Q] Help with JDK install

Ive installed the android sdk and then installed eclipse but i'm not sure whether I have JDK installed or not, Is there some way I can check this ?
Also will it make a difference if I need to install JDK even though eclipse has already been installed. Does the JDK have to be installed in a specific location for eclipse and android sdk to use it properly.
Thank you.

Ar you using windows, linux or Mac?
If you are on a Mac then you do not need to download the JDK because Java is already installed. If you are using Windows then yes, you do need to download the JDK. I'm not sure about Linux.
That said, if you are using Windows and you are unsure whether it is installed then, most likely it is not. Links to the JDK are available on the same Android developer pages where you downloaded the SDK. It doesn't make any difference if you've already installed the other components. Simply download and install the JDK and you should be good to go.

New Ubuntu Update 10.10 Broke my SDK?

[Q] Hey guys, I just updated to Ubuntu 10.10 and now my SDK is gone! I tried to look into why it wasn't working and the software manager tool in Eclipse says that Android is installed. I don't even have any of the Android SDK buttons showing anymore? Can someone help a fellow dev?
[SOLVED] Go to the eclipse website, download Eclipse for linux, uninstall your old eclipse, extract your new eclipse wherever and go into the folder and click the application button titled eclipse. Then reinstall all the android stuff.

At the informal android developer's meetup tonight, there were two of us with this same problem.
One issue that I found was that PATH in .profile got broken.
We suspect that using the version of eclipse that came with ubuntu, rather than 3.5 downloaded directly from eclipse might also be causing problems.

I have the same problem; ellarsee, can you be more specific how you got it running again?
(what is .mprofile and where is it, for example? (Googling isn't helping me find out))

Same thing happened to me
Upgrade to Ubuntu 10.10 broken my Android SDK as well.

Is it possible the Java packages are not installed anymore in Ubuntu?
I tried this...
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk
Updated a lot of stuff but Eclipse Android is still gone...

Does anyone have this figured out yet??????????????????????????????? I NEED TO GET MOVING ON SOME APPS! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!

Removal and re-install of ADT plugin does not help
This is the error that appeared in my project the first time I ran eclipse after the 10.10 upgrade from 10.04.
Code:
The project was not built since its build path is incomplete. Cannot find the class file for java.lang.Object. Fix the build path then try building this project
I attempted to fix the build path (Properties->Java Build Path) and noticed that
com.adroid.ide.eclipse.adt.ANDROID_FRAMEWORK was not checked. I checked it but this made no difference.
Going to try complete uninstall of eclipse...

It's still not working for me
Not .mprofile .profile, it's like .bashrc, a script that is run when you log in, and can set your $PATH variable, or other environment variables.
emacs ~/.profile
or
vi ~/.profile
should enable you to edit it.
Has anyone tried just a fresh reinstall of everything to work on android apps?
Someone asked about java, it's still in /usr/bin/java

SOLUTION
Can't post outside links. So you'll have to google the bug numbers I give.
Ubuntu bug is here: bugs.launchpad # 633198
This points at a debian bug: bugs.debian.org # 587657
Debian bug contains a workaround where you edit the file:
~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_*/configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info
And you change the concurrent package location (I had too entries, I had to remove them both and insert the line in the debian bug)
and then things magically worked for me again!
Best of luck everyone

Someone else?
Someone else found a way to fix it?
Cuz, everything up till now didnt work for me

vista home prem 64bit and sdk compatibility issues?

Is there something I forgot to do beyond the instructions in the dev resources for installation on the android sdk site?
I went through a couple of the test projects to get a feel for it, and keep getting execution fc's in the emulator, exported everything to my laptop(vista 32bit) and no problems.
Have reinstalled the sdk, eclipse and java on my desktop machine but no help. Any thoughts?

Weird question, but have you set the SDK version when you created the project? Happends when you are in a hurry!

[TORRENTS] Android SDKs

BitTorrent is great. If I could download everything via BitTorrent (legally I mean) then that would be much better. If then everyone else used BitTorrent that would be great. In a BitTorrent client using the protocol you automatically have checksumming to ensure that there are no errors in the download, you have a download manager with resumable downloads, queueing and so on, what's not to like?
The Android SDK provides you the API libraries and developer tools necessary to build, test, and debug apps for Android.
If you're a new Android developer, we recommend you download the ADT Bundle to quickly start developing apps. It includes the essential Android SDK components and a version of the Eclipse IDE with built-in ADT (Android Developer Tools) to streamline your Android app development.
With a single download, the ADT Bundle includes everything you need to begin developing apps:
Eclipse + ADT plugin
Android SDK Tools
Android Platform-tools
The latest Android platform
The latest Android system image for the emulator
(Description above from: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)

I have mirrored all the current SDK bundles and I am sharing them as torrents basically because of what I said above.

thanks
thanks for this, really looking for this :good:

Thats cool,thx.

[Q] creat new project in Android Studio does nothing!

it just does nothing at all!
i open it from bin (studio64.bit)

What you mean by "it does nothing"?
It opens wizard, and after wizard project workspace ( folders / files) are not created?
Or it doesn't even open wizard and "new project" button is not active or it not performing any action?
What version of Android Studio have you downloaded and installed?
Have you sdk installed before or together with Android Studio?

i don't know what you mean by that! not sure!

i give up

First of all just install java JDK.
Then follow step by step installation from
https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=studio
When you will have SDK, JDK, and android studio, please check system path to verify if everything is on place. What's more in Windows verify if you have access as a user to folder where all three programs are installed.

I think you need to offer more details so others can help you. Like what OS are you using, Window, Linux, Mac? And where did you download the install package?
Personally I don't even believe you have already installed it.

hello
surprising as I did not have any pbs to install AS (on W8.1 ok) with Android SDK. If it doesn't open at all them you seem to have some OS or env configurations problems.
