i'm not an expert on this but i've installed this plugin several times now so here are some trouble shooting tips.
1) you say you insatlled the android SDK first. the web page says: Additionally, before you can configure or use ADT, you must install the Android SDK starter package, as described in Downloading the SDK Starter Package<http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html#Installing>. Specifically, you need to install a compatible version of the Android SDK Tools and at least one development platform. To simplify ADT setup, we recommend installing the Android SDK prior to installing ADT. Did you launch the android SDK and install the development platforms from within it ( must install at least one it says). 2) i've run both the https: and http: links and had trouble. did you give them more than one try? In one case it partially installed so i had to uninstall i think and try again. 3) if i recall eclipse should trigger a firewall warning when it tries to download, and you must hit unblock. Does eclipse have permission to use the net. On Tue, Aug 30, 2011 at 9:19 AM, ORIT VIDERMAN <[email protected]>wrote: > I am trying to build an Android development environment on my PC.
