Sorry for the newbie post, but we are on day 1 of learning Android
development here...
I am following along in the Wrox book "Professional Android 2
Application Development".
I'm working thru Chapter 2 - basically just the "hello android" app. I
have Eclipse build 20100917-0705 installed on WinXP, and all the
Android development tools that were current as of yesterday when I
downloaded them (most recent SDK platform is 2.3.1).
The problem is that whenever I do run->configuration or debug-
>configuration, the AVD emulator starts, but all that happens is that
the word "ANDROID", in block letters, appears on the emulated display.
Hello World does not.
I even tried creating a new project using the sample apps that come
with the SDK, and debug into one of those, and the same thing happens.
I'm guessing that there is some problem with the AVD emulator. In
Windows task manager, something called emulator.exe appears and is
using close to 100% of CPU when I try to debug.
What appears in the eclipse console is:
2011-01-28 14:06:35 - hello_android3] Android Launch!
[2011-01-28 14:06:35 - hello_android3] adb is running normally.
[2011-01-28 14:06:35 - hello_android3] Performing
com.example.android.notepad.NotesList activity launch
[2011-01-28 14:06:35 - hello_android3] Automatic Target Mode:
Preferred AVD 'android2.3.1-basic-wvga800' is not available. Launching
new emulator.
[2011-01-28 14:06:35 - hello_android3] Launching a new emulator with
Virtual Device 'android2.3.1-basic-wvga800'
[2011-01-28 14:06:40 - hello_android] New emulator found:
emulator-5554
[2011-01-28 14:06:40 - hello_android] Waiting for HOME
('android.process.acore') to be launched...
[2011-01-28 14:06:53 - hello_android] emulator-5554 disconnected!
Cancelling 'com.test.hello_android.hello_android_activity activity
launch'!
the last line about emulator disconnected appears after I kill the
emulator task in windows. None of the controls in the emulator are
responsive.
Appreciate any help!
