How to install the Android SDK

How to install the Android SDK

First, install Eclipse here.

After installing Eclipse, install the Android ADT plugin for Eclipse:
 - Click on Help > Then click on
 - Install New Software Copy and paste this and click "Add":

https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

 - Click "OK"

Eclipse will ask you to restart. After you restart, the Android ADT plugin will ask you to either download and install the Android SDK for you or you can do it yourself.

If you are using an existing SDK or downloading it yourself:

Download the SDK:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

The file should look like:

android-sdk_r20-linux.tgz

Extract the file to your /home/USER directory by either double clicking on the file or command line:

tar -zxvf android-sdk_r20-linux.tgz

Next you will go into Eclipse and use the Android ADT plugin to use with the /home/USER/android-sdk that you have extracted.

Installing Android Versions

 - Go to Window > then click on Android SDK Manager

 From here, you can select the Android Packages that you would like.

Eclipse - Dependency Issues

Failure to Launch
Early this morning I loaded up Eclipse after the latest update(Indigo). To my surprise, all my extra plugins such as ADT and C/C++ were gone. Of course I tried to install them manually again via "Help > Install New Software" and ran into "Dependency Issues". After plenty of installing and re-installing and considering going back to an older version, further Googling led me to just REMOVE all the Eclipse files INCLUDING config files:

Run these commands
sudo -i
 - login as root
apt-get autoremove eclipse
 - unistall
rm -r /usr/lib/eclipse 
 - remove all config files

apt-get install eclipse 
- reinstall

How to fix 'for' loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 mode in Eclipse

For loop problem
Once again, programming in C using Eclipse in Linux is great, however when using "for" loops I get this error:

'for' loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 mode

After a little bit of research, in Eclipse, go to Project > Properties > C/C++ Build > Settings > GCC C Compiler > Miscellaneous > add "-std=c99" to the "Linker Flags" text field.

How to fix undefined reference to `sqrt' in Eclipse

Math.h problem
Programming in C using Eclipse in Linux is great, however when i added variables that were doubles into the "sqrt" function from the "math.h" library there was a problem that came up.

undefined reference to `sqrt'

After a little bit of research, in Eclipse, go to Project > Properties > C/C++ Build > Settings > GCC C Linker > Miscellaneous > add "-lm" to the "Linker Flags" text field. That way it is properly linked to the project.
