You'd think. I've heard of it taking hours for some people.

Any Eclipse should be fine. I use Indigo on my desktop and just installed
Juno on my laptop and they both work fine.

Ok, I waited for about 10 minutes the first time around - I would have 
thought that would be long enough?
 
I have to reinstall it again anyway, so I'll try Java 1.6.  I'll also go 
for Eclipse Helios and have a go with that.
 
Thanks.

Is this the first time you've set up the Emulator? It's slow as mol-asses,
particularly the first time around. You might just have to wait it out.

You probably want 1.6.

[android-developers] Can't get AVD to run my noddy app!

2012-06-28 Thread Doug Ponsford
Hi, I'm a newbie that needs some help on getting the AVD running with
my app.  I've been developing C code for decades, but I have to admit
the Eclipse/AVD setup has me stumped!  I'm following the 'HelloWorld'
tutorials on this website (and some others) and everything seems to be
working OK, up to the point where I try to run it on the simulator.
I'm not getting any warnings, the Eclipse build/run output window says
that everything is installed OK and the AVD seems to startup and run
OK.  Eclipse says that my app is loding, but it never runs.  All I get
is the simulator window with "ANDROID" on the screen and the buttons
on the righ-hand side.

I've got Eclipse Indigo and r18 of the Android PlugIn (I tried to
install Helios, but the Eclipse website directed me to Indigo!).  Is
Indigo OK for running the simulator, or do I specifically need
Helios?  I also have Java 1.7.

The API level I have installed is Level 15 (v4.xxx of Android, I
think).  Don't know if I need a lower version to get my tutorial app
to run, but level 15 is the only one I can select when setting up a
device in the AVD manager.

I've been trying to get this going for days, trying all sorts of
switches and buttons, but to no avail.  Before I start unistalling
everything and reinstalling, is there anything I might be missing?
Something that always trips up new starters maybe?  Or do I need ot go
back to scratch?

Any help would be much appreciated.
