I have now spent the better part of 12 hours trying to just get my development environment to run.... I am trying to use NetBeans to develop a simple Android app. I downloaded the Android dev kit and unpacked it to my C:/ drive. Then I grabbed the latest version of NetBeans. And then I installed nbandroid for NetBeans. I create a new project and choose the Android type of project. All is well... then I take that base project and try to run it and NetBeans asks me to either select a running device or start AVD... Both lists are blank.
So I figured that perhaps I ought to start the emulator running before I try to run the project from the NetBeans side. I go to the ADK directory and try double clicking on the Android jar file... nothing. I figure "The emuilator must be in the tools directory" and so I go there and double click on the android.bat file... nothing. So I think "Maybe it is the exe file called Android" and double click on that - nothing. At that point I thought I had missed something in installing the ADK... I go to the web page that describes installing it - Apparently the only thing for windows (After unpacking the zip file) is to update the "Path" system variable - which I did and have now checked 4 times to make sure I didn't point it at the wrong directory... with the same results as before. What am I doing wrong? I know it isn't a google mistake - enough people have made this work before me - so it has to be me. What did I miss? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
