Im fairly new at programming and was wondering if the Jigloo gui builder plugin would work with android app developement. I have Eclipse setup with the android sdk plugin configured, after seeing what Jigloo can do and that you can see the source code after creating the gui iI figured this would be a helpful tool to use.
I would be very grateful if someone could tell me if it does work and how to configure it.
Thank you in advance
AFAIK, Jigloo has nothing to do with Android, sorry.
Android has its own GUI framework and doesn't use Swing/SWT (what Jigloo seems to be for), so I don't think you can use it to build Android GUIs. When you open a layout XML file in Eclipse and click the 'layout' tab, you can get a rough idea of what it will look like anyway.
You could check out DroidDraw if you want a drag and drop GUI builder, although I'm not sure how regularly updated it is.

I'm not a developer, so i apologize if I don't phrase the question effectively.
I'm looking for a tool that will help show me what code is being executed as I step through the program. i am not looking to much more than take look under the hood as I test new features & uncover bugs for the new Android app my company is making.
Are there any specific emulators or tools that I could use for this simplistic purpose?
Thanks!
Android Studio has a built-in debugger. See here
There are many ways for to make a debug inside Android Studio.
1-Debug using Logs
2-With logs lines and see on Logcat tool
3-With Breakpoints
and others.

I am new in developing apps for Android with Java Eclipse.
I get a simple problem: after following the procedure explained here:
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/android/android_hello_world_example.htm
I tried to push the "Finish" button to create my first app, but it doesn't work: the wizard remains open and nothing happens.
Also, I have several problems in the Demo apps, errors like:
'<>' source operator is not allowed for source level
and many more.
I guess I created problems with the configurations.
Thanks if you can help me to create my first app for Android and to load
the demos.
It is really had to tell what is the problem, but as Abdullah advised to use android studio because it is well designed to develop android applications. and most of the company's now days use android studio as there IDE preference, but still its developer's choice. Eclipse ADT plugin is buggy
I need some help with the designer of the visual studio/xamarin on the android.
I'm kinda noob with development, but I was hoping to do some examples, but the designer isn't showing up...
The tutorial videos, from the Xamarin itself, only says it need to create a new project and play with the designer, but when I do that, the designer is empty and I can't do nothing...
Here some pictures from what I have and from what I see on videos:
There's a couple things I'm thinking here. It's quite possible that your installation of Xamarin didn't go according to plan. Check your detailed Visual Studio version information in "Help -> About -> Copy Detailed Info".
Additionally, you might also be running on an outdated version of the Android SDK or there might be an issue with your Java config. Ensure you've got the Android SDK installed and updated and that you're using a current version of the Java SDK.
I also see there's a white box showing up on your Designer screen. Does that ever populate with an error? Usually, that will show some info on what exactly is going wrong.
Lastly, you can also check your logs in the following directory for more hints as to what's going on:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Xamarin\Log
I hope this helps!
I am a beginner in android. to work with android sdk i got a full package combined with eclipse and android sdk named "adt-bundle-windows-" . is it good to using this bundle or should i manually configure a new eclipse classic of Helios ? Because i am having some problem with the emulation and sdk mananger.
Basically i want to know is it better to use this bundle over manually configured eclipse?
advance thanks for your help.
The bundle should make your life easier- everything is configured correctly for you. It can be done manually if you really want to, but there's no promise the plugin will work with older versions.
here is a really good tutorial for you, with it you'll learn everything you want to know, there you have everything from start till end.... hope you like it! i was using it and it's perfect,

Note: Not sure if this is the right stack, please tell if I should migrate. (Linux Stack may be the appropriate location).
I am really looking to buy an Android tablet and currently the only thing holding me back is, I want to develop on my device. Does anyone know if Eclipse can be installed on an Android tablet? If not is Eclipse working on a port?
There is currently no Android port for Eclipse. Even if there was, you would still need the Java SDK to run on Android which is not possible (yet).
And this is the best I've seen now

Its in early stages of development, but looks promising: java-ide-droid
Use SL4A to do scripting on android
or use Java IDE droid to create native Android applications. It has the Eclipse compiler by the way.
You can use DroidDevelop. It is JavaIDEDroid-shell for more comfortable programing.
