How To Get Started

When you have checked all of the items you want to download, click the


Install Selected button, which brings up a license confirmation dialog:


Figure 69. Android SDK and AVD Manger Installing Packages

Review and accept the licenses, then click the Install button. At this point,


this is a fine time to go get lunch. Or, perhaps dinner. Unless you have a


substantial Internet connection, downloading all of this data and


unpacking it will a fair bit of time.


When the download is complete, you can close up the SDK and AVD


Manager if you wish, though we will use it to set up the emulator in a later


step of this chapter.


Install the ADT for Eclipse.......................................................................


If you will not be using Eclipse for your Android development, you can skip


to the next section.


If you have not yet installed Eclipse, you will need to do that first. Eclipse


can be downloaded from the Eclipse Web site. The "Eclipse IDE for Java


Developers" package will work fine.
