|
<p>First, you need to set up your development environment with the new SDK Tools and preview
|
|
platform:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Unpack the SDK Tools r8 package you've received.
|
|
<p>If you have an existing Android SDK directory, simply replace your existing {@code
|
|
tools/} directory with the one from the new package and add the {@code platform-tools/}
|
|
directory along side it (at the root of the SDK directory).</p></li>
|
|
<li>Unpack the platform package ({@code android-Froyo}) and place it in your SDK's {@code
|
|
platforms/} directory.</li>
|
|
<li>If you're using Eclipse, also update your Eclipse plugin using the provided archive file.
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Select <strong>Help > Install new software</strong>.</li>
|
|
<li>Click <strong>Add</strong>.</li>
|
|
<li>Click <strong>Archive</strong>.</li>
|
|
<li>Locate and select the archive file. Click <strong>OK</strong>.
|
|
<p>Developer Tools now appear in the Available Software window and you can proceed
|
|
to install the plugin.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> Beginning with SDK Tools r8 (the version you've received),
|
|
the {@code adb} tool is now located in the {@code <sdk>/platform-tools/} directory (instead
|
|
of in {@code <sdk>/tools/}). Be sure to update your {@code PATH} environment variable and any
|
|
build/debugging scripts you have.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="Setup">Set Up Your AVD and Application</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>With your SDK now set up, follow these steps to start developing an application for
|
|
Honeycomb.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
<li>Create a new AVD targeted to "Android Froyo (Preview)" and with a custom skin resolution of
|
|
1280 x 800.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Set the build target of your application to "Android Froyo (Preview)".</li>
|
|
<li>Set your manifest file's {@code <uses-sdk>} element to use {@code
|
|
android:minSdkVersion="Froyo"}. For example:
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<manifest>
|
|
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="Froyo" />
|
|
...
|
|
</manifest>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>"Froyo" is a provisional API Level for the Honeycomb release, used only during the preview
|
|
period. When the APIs are
|
|
finalized and the SDK is released publicly, you must update this with the appropriate API Level
|
|
integer.</p>
|
|
<p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> By providing your {@code <uses-sdk>} element in the
|
|
manifest file <em>before</em> the {@code <application>} element, your application will
|
|
automatically apply the new Holographic theme.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
</ol>
