Does anybody have a single Eclipse installation for both Blackberry and Android development?
I have the BB Plugin working fine. I am wondering if I can just follow the Android installation steps without it affecting the BB setup.
I dont want to experiment, so I am asking.
I have seen this thread - Android and Blackberry project in eclipse
Yes, I have a working Eclipse installation for both BlackBerry and Android development.
You must install the 'BlackBerry Plugin for Eclipse' from RIM first (which you've already done). Essentially it's the Eclipse IDE (currently Helios 3.6) with the BlackBerry plugin hardcoded into it.
Apart from the BlackBerry stuff, there are no other differences between the vanilla Helios 3.6 and the RIM 'BlackBerry Plugin for Eclipse', this means you can install the Android development tools into your IDE with no problems.
Works like a charm if you follow the guide here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
How to use single eclipse for Android and Blackberry ..?
Ans:
There was no any single setup available which work for both android and blackberry.
but in a simple thing the eclipse version 3.6 is work for blackberry plugin and as well as work with Android ADT-12 plugin so first of all you need to configure your blackberry and than you have to install any ADT plugins (i.e. the latest adt version is ADT-12) and than config the android sdk.
now your blackberry and android are working.
when you want to use blackberry than you open perspective option and select blackberry application development perspective.
and same when you want to use android than you may select java perspective...
try it..

I am confused about how SDK platforms work in android studio.
I have only a few SDK platforms installed, yet i am able to run my app for MeMu android 4.4.4 emulator.
When creating the project i set min version to android 4, i assume that's why it can run on android 4+. but then what are these SDK platforms and what will be missed if i dont have them installed?
Those are different versions of the SDK released for the different versions of the platform. Generally you just install the latest and use that for a new project. However not all projects jump right on updating it, so if you're working on a pre-existing app you may need to download whatever version they were using at the time.
I have always coded android apps using eclipse as opposed to android studio simply because i find it faster than android studio. However because google has deprecated eclipse as the official IDE for android.They also stopped developing android developer tools (ADT) plugin.
For purposes of the layout renderer in eclipse, I need to know what was the last version of Android Developer Tools plugin for eclipse to be ever released by google before it was deprecated?
The last version of ADT tools should be ADT-23.0.7.
I've never managed to find something newer than that.
In the official annoucement it states:
Android tools inside Eclipse will continue to live on in the open source community via the Eclipse Foundation. Check out the latest Eclipse Andmore project if you are interested in contributing or learning more.
Where can I download proper version of :
Eclipse with SDK
Youwave
Java
All for windows 10 (64bit).
My tools of previous version were working normaly on win7 (32bit). Now in win10 I've downloaded what is recommended on the web for Android programming in win10 but they don't work correctly.
Try Android Studio, which is an official development tool for Android. Eclipse with Android SDK (or ADT) will become more and more outdate from an Android development point of view.
I am learning about android.
I have downloaded Eclipse and Adt .
Now I have to download Android sdk. Should I download SDK as standalone tool or with Android Studio.
What is SDK and what all does it include?
Can I use both Eclipse and Android Studio with Sdk
Is better to use just Android Studio, this is the official Android Development IDE.
https://developer.android.com/intl/pt-br/sdk/index.html
Android Studio help you to download Android SDKs.
What is android sdk ? What does it include ?
It stands for Software development kit, and as the name suggests , it contains the platform (android version specific libraries to help you make apps for android platforms).
It contains different tools to help you install apps (adb tool), collect statistics and view information about the apps running in your devices etc.
Download sdk here
Can I use both Eclipse and Android Studio with Sdk ?
Yes you can , just have to point these ide's to the sdk's absolute path.
Should I download SDK as standalone tool or with Android Studio ?
You can do it either way, the former would require you to give its path to the ide you will be using, either Android Studio or eclipse.
Note
Android studio is the best and developer's guide by google recommends the same as well.
Some features of android studio
The SDK means Software Development Kit and is there for building android apps.
The sdk contains all the libraries you need to run your code on an android device.
Therefore eclipse and android studio can use the same sdk.
I really recommens using androi studio tho.
It is way better for developing android apps and comes with the sdk.
Eclipse was used some time ago but now android studio is the official ide for android, and way more powerful than eclipse.
Android SDK is a software development kit that is used to create Android applications.
You can download Android SDK as standalone and use it with eclipse to develop your android Apps.So you do not need to download Android Studio to develop Android Apps although it is recommended for starters.
You can download Android sdk only from here Or here
Also, The final step before you develop your android applications is to make sure that your android-sdk-tools,android-sdk-platform-tools,support-tools, and your API s are up to date.Check out your SDK Manager "Don't forget to run as administrator".
Just wondering what is the difference between Eclipse JUNO, and ADT from Android developers site. Which is better to use on Ubuntu 12.04?
To develop android application you should use Eclipse and ADT. Eclipse is a development environment for multiple programming languages. For example, with the Java Development Tools (JDT) it support Java development. ADT (Android Development Tools) is an another extension of Eclipse to support Android development. It adds a lot of functionality to Eclipse e.g. debuging tools which help you while coding and running android applications. However, to run Eclipse with ADT you still need the Android SDK.
The android developers site is always a good start to develop android applications. You will find there everything you need.
