[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK Setup.exe error - GetTempFileName failed. The directory name is invalid
Just a guess here, but did you unzip your files into the top-level directory of your C: drive? Try creating a C:\android_install folder, or something like that to hold your files. Then try it again. - dave On Mar 10, 2:51 pm, dmagnum dsnyde...@yahoo.com wrote: I downloaded android-sdk_r05-windows.zip and extracted the files to my C: drive.

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK Content Loader - can i stop it? =D
I am also having the same issue when I open a Wind River Workbench (VxWorks) project. I don't get the message until I expand the project tree. I also noticed that adb gets started as well. After increasing my JVM memory parameters on the command line, things have gotten a lot better.

[android-beginners] Re: android sdk 1.5 linux download link.
Hi, To install the SDKs you just need to do the following: #cd tools #./android and then on the left side you have several options, but the one that you need is Available packages. Just click on it, and then select the repository (available by default) and download the SDKs. If you have problems with the https server, go to settings and click on the box Force https ..., click on the Save Apply button, and then do the same as described above to get the SDKs. I hope it helps. Cheers, On Nov 28, 5:38 pm, Liviu Ungureanu smartli...@gmail.com wrote: Hi! Please,if someone can help me with an download link for android SDK 1.5 linux?

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK For Beginners?
Hi Azelis and welcome to Android development! :) I'm pretty much new to programming. Android is my first software development experience aside from some relational database stuff I did years ago. I pretty much had to start learning from scratch several months ago. The first recommendation I have for you is to learn Java. I took this free online course: http://www.javapassion.com/javaintro/ I was new to both java and xml, but I found the xml easier to pick up than the java. Your C++ experience will help you learn the java faster I think. I also read this free Android development PDF book: http://andbook.anddev.org/ Which started to fill in a lot of the blanks for me about Android development. And I purchased the Professional Android Application Development paperback after browsing Android coding books at the local book store (so far it's my fav Android coding book). I still have lots more to learn, but I am on my 3rd or 4th app and I'm really enjoying developing for Android. I also made good use of this group, so I encourage you to also. Good luck! -- tinyang -Original Message- From: android-beginners@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-beginn...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Azelis DeLano Sent: Friday, August 21, 2009 3:22 AM To: Android Beginners Subject: [android-beginners] Android SDK For Beginners? Hello, my name is Zack but I go by Azelis. Introduction's out of the way, let's get down to it. From my history of programming, I know that languages based on other languages only make sense if you have extensive background. For example when I started learning NQC for the Mindstorms Invention System it was recommended that I take some C++ tutorials first. However most of these provided me with information I would never need to know (system speciffic stuff). That brings me to where I find myself. Within a week I will be receiving my G1 and I am very interested in programming for it. I have a great amount of programming experience as follows (in chronological order): AppleSoft Integer Basic QBASIC JavaScript Visual Basic Visual C++ TI89 Basic PHP Linden Scripting Language and recently a bit of ASM Basically, with my use of JS and PHP, I am no stranger to the DOM. However I found even the Hello Android tutorial a little difficult to follow, using data types, methods, models, and terms I was unfamiliar with (not to mention that I've never worked with XML, only style sheets). While I was able to kind of understand what was going on, by the time I got to the notepad example I was completely lost. Let me also qualify that I tried learning Java once before to create website applets (yeah, back in those olden days) and most tutorials I found convered very speciffic information that I really didn't need to know. So given my experience with outside tutorials that are only of peripheral interest to me and the knowledge that Android doesn't use the everyday flavor Java VM, is there a Java for Android for Beginners style reference anywhere? Barring that, is there a tutorial/set of tutorials anyone else who was in my position can recommend? Android may very well be the first place solo programmers like myself have a chance to create mainstream popular mobile applications so if such a reference doesn't exist I may well have to spearhead it. - Azelis the White Wolf No virus found in this incoming message.

I have actually found a resource that is working well for me. It's a book called The Busy Coder's guide to Android.

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK For Beginners?
Hmm, I wanted to add that the book I referenced has errors in it. I'm working on the relative alignment section and it references android:layout_toRight when it should be toRightOf. I tried it in both 1.1 and 1.5 to be sure, and I double checked the example. Oh well, pressing on. I did notice in an article elsewhere that it is possible to actually replace the Android main UI, and I've seen videos supposedly of doing this. Are there any guides on doing that? I've set myself a lofty goal for my first complete project. Not that I necessarily feel the need to replace the default UI, I just want to do it so that I know I can do it.

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK
The list of targets in the New Android Project Wizard should be the same as in the Windows Pref Android. I mean really it's the same code. Are you sure that in the same session, you open the pref you see the 3 targets then close that, go to the project wizard and the list is empty? If that's the case, can you look into the workspace/.metadata/.log file (or Windows View Error Log) to see if there's any unexpected error listed?

[android-beginners] Re: android SDK not working on Fedora 7
I run Fedora 7 (64 bit), Eclipse 3.3.1.1, and Android SDK m5-rc14_linux-x86. I installed the Android SDK in early February. The Eclipse install had been present for some time before that, and the Java 6 install dates from last November. Other than Eclipse instability apparently introduced by the Android extensions (Eclipse crashes both with and without error popups), this combination works OK. This is the development environment in which the company's contest submission was built. As someone else asked, which version of Java are you running? The command java -version I'm running returns the following. java version 1.6.0_03 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_03-b05, mixed mode) And in Eclipse that is the version of Java configured as the default, i.e., Windows-Preferences-Installed JREs shows a check mark next to the JRE showing the path to the install directory /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03. I suggest you create a new Android project without source code, create an application by copying and pasting from one of the examples, i.e., from known good source code, and seeing if the project compiles and runs. If this succeeds, your Java + Eclipse + Android installation succeeded. Until this very simple test works, I wouldn't try anything more complex such as importing existing code or creating a project from existing code.

Regards, ks Hi, I am facing troubles in getting started with Android SDK. I am using following: (1) Fedora Core-7 Linux Distribution on a i86 based machine. (2) Android SDK Version: android-sdk_m5-rc15_linux-x86 I installed the eclipse on my Machine using: sudo yum install eclipse-cdt eclipse-cdt-sdk eclipse-jdt eclipse-jdt-sdk Then I followed the SDK installation procedure from following link: http://code.google.com/android/intro/installing.html After installing SDK and ADT Plugin, I tried creating a new project with Create project from existing source option. I use one of the sources from SDK_DIR/samples, I get a lot of warnings and errors actually I tried with LunarLander, Snake, SkeletonActivity and HelloActivity with same result. I have copied the error messages at end of this e-mail. I tried to search for this issue on the group. I could find a few posts but most of them had no resolution.

So, I downloaded the eclipse version eclipse-SDK-3.3.2-linux-gtk.tar.gz. But, I get the same error as I was getting previously. Is there any one who can suggest me a combination of Eclipse + Android SDK which will work fine on a FC-7 distribution.
