IllegalArgumentException when trying to run an OpenGL ES 2.0 application

When I add the following line to my GLSurfaceView class I get an IllegalArgumentException from some random place. I don't know where the problem is because it doesn't give a stack trace.

setEGLCont开发者_开发问答extClientVersion(2);

What else do I need to do to get an OpenGL ES 2.0 application to work?

NB: I'm trying to run the application on the emulator.

OpenGL ES 2.0 isn't supported by the Android emulator.
