I recently reformatted my laptop (older macbook pro), thinking that it wouldn’t be such a big deal to set things up again. Well, apparently, I didn’t believe myself because I put off setting it up for 2 weeks!
It really wasn’t so bad.
Here is a quick overview for Mac OSX 10.6.7:
- download the java JDK (I used soylatte)
- install Android SDK for mac
- open eclipse and install the ADT plugin
- tell eclipse about the location of the JDK and SDK
more details are found on the android developer website and the more mac specific instructions are on freshblocks.
