Eclipse not loading android SDK

I have an ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 system. I installed the ia32 libraries and manually installed(i.e. untarred) Eclipse Galileo Java EE. I then installed android's ADT-0.9.5 by downloading the zip file and pointing the software source as archive.

Now I need to add the android SDK in Windows->preferences->android. However, when I select the SDK directory there and select Apply/OK, nothing happens. The next time I open preferences, the directory is there in the selection dialog,开发者_运维技巧 but eclipse just won't load/do anything on clicking Apply.

Could someone help me out...it is driving me crazy.

Just add a forward slash "/" at the end of the path. I had the same problem on Mac OSX and solved it by adding the "/".

Annoying

I had the same problem. I'm running on

• Eclipse Galileo SR2 for linux-32bit .
• Android sdk r07 for linux
• ADT 0.9.9. (android eclipse plug-in)

Here is the way I got to solve the problem.

Open "SKD Readme.txt" in the folder of your android-sdk and you will see ...

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 "tools/android".

So this is it. After you do this get back to eclipse and in the target area you will see several versions available.

Run eclipse with clean flag: path_to_eclipse_dir/eclipse -clean (eclipse.exe on Windows)

I fixed this by deleting the entire SDK folder (in my case its name was "android-sdk-Linux"), and then re-installing the packages.

This may seem like a simple solution, but it soved the problem for me while the other solutions didn't.
