I have a problem installing Android using Eclipse 3.5 sdk.

Here are some specifications,

  • I have a zdk file for Android 1.5, and
  • And the Eclipse 3.5 sdk zip file.

I tried to install android as a plug-in but failed, please tell me how can I install Android in Eclipse with only the specified specs.

android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3.zip is not an eclipse plugin.

Android Development Tools (ADT) is an Eclipse plugin for Android development.

After installation (via the remote site https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ ") you will have to edit its preference for this plugin to refer to the SDK (191Mo which you unzipped somewhere on your disk)



  • Start Eclipse, then choose Help> Software Updates.
  • In the dialog box that appears, click the Available Software tab.
  • Click Add Site ...
  • Enter location:
  https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

If you are having trouble connecting the plugin, try using "http" in the location url instead of "https" (https is preferred for security reasons).

 Click OK.
  1. In the Available Software view, you will see the plugin listed in the URL with the Developer Tools included. Check the "Developer Tools" box and click "Install ...".
  2. In the next install window, "Android DDMS" and "Android Development Tools" should be checked. Click Next.
  3. Read and accept the license agreement, then click Finish.
  4. Restart Eclipse.

Now change your Eclipse preferences to point to the Android SDK directory:

  • Choose Window> Preferences ... to open the Preferences panel (Mac: Eclipse> Preferences).
  • Select Android from the left panel.
  • For the location of the SDK, in the main pane, click Browse ... and locate the downloaded SDK directory.
  • Click Apply, then OK.
