I've used PHP/Apache/mySQL/HTML/CSS/JavaScript for years. I've also do a bit of ASP and vBasic coding. In order to use these tools I've had to install various development environments in my time.
But this Android Dev kit has me stumped. The installation instructions are not clear at all. Do I need to DL Eclipse first? Which order do things need installing? Its totally baffling and I understand why even my Android dev friends say that the iPhone OS dev kit is much easier to use. I've DLed and installed the Java JDK 6, Eclipse and the Android SDK. Eclipse wont start as it says it needs Java JRE, the Android SDK setup wont find the updates and says to enforce HTTP in the settings but in settings there IS no HTTP force, only HTTPS force - which is what is failing!!! Why on Earth can we not have one nice neat package that just installs it all for us? I already have to learn Java ffs, why should I have to wrestle with installing this? Is there any guide that is not on http://developer.android.com that isn't so incomprehensible? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
