This is an old revision of the document!
on linux with emacs
- install sdk + use it to install runtimes etc: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
- useful but a bit out of date: http://riddell.us/AndroidWithEmacsOnUbuntu.html
- (install everything to ~/opt and set up paths)
setting up the hardware:
- enable debugging on device
- set permissions on usb device by creating /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules (0bb4 is htc vendor):
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
test it works with:
adb devices
creating a project (from http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/hello-world.html ):
android create project \ --package com.android.helloandroid \ --activity HelloAndroid \ --target 2 \ --path <path-to-your-project>/HelloAndroid
Use “android list targets” to get the target number
Load a file into emacs, M-X android-ant-install, and the package should appear in your apps list
