The Android SDK archive now only contains the tools. It no longer comes populated with a specific Android platform or Google add-on. Instead you use the SDK Manager to install or update SDK components such as platforms, tools, add-ons, and documentation.
In order to start developing applications, you must install at least one version of the Android platform using the SDK Manager. This requires an Internet connection, so if you plan to use the SDK offline, please make sure to download the necessary components while online. To start the SDK Manager, please execute the program "SDK Setup.exe". >From the command-line you can also directly trigger an update by executing: tools\android.bat update sdk On Dec 2, 8:21 pm, Dj <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I too am getting similar error, and not able to start my work. > I am using Windows Vista. > The command prompt output is coming as:- > C:\Users\dj\Downloads\android-sdk_r3-windows\android-sdk-windows > \tools>and > roid list target > Error: Ignoring add-on 'google_apis-5_r01': Unable to find base > platform with AP > I level '5' > Available Android targets: > > Kindly help me out. > > Asif k wrote: > > Same command I had copied and pasted in my command prompt and one avd > > is created successfully.
