Setting up Android Development Tools in Eclipse

If you download android SDK now, it comes with a custom eclipse with android fully installed on it, so way easier

Solved!, it was solved by downloading Eclipse Indigo, but as indicated online, they tell you to go to ‘File>New>Other…>Android>Android Project‘, but Android Project is not in the list?

So,

I recently wanted to start making a Java android app, and by going to developer.android.com, they told me, install Android SDK tools, so i did that, then in eclipse, i have to got to help, ad new software, and use this : Enter Android Development Tools in the Name field, and https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ in the Location field. , so i did that, and it keeps giving me this error :

(com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 20.0.2.v201207191942-407447)
  Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 20.0.2.v201207191942-407447 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 20.0.2.v201207191942-407447) requires 'org.eclipse.core.runtime 3.6.0' but it could not be found

i looked it up on google, but couldnt find anything... Does anyone now how to fix this?

I am using Eclipse Helios. Download Eclipse IDE for Java Developers from here & update it latest packages by goto to menu Help -> Check for new updates.

Download & install Android SDK.

To install ADT Plugin:

  1. Start Eclipse, then select Help > Install New Software.... Click Add, in the top-right corner.
  2. In the Add Repository dialog that appears, enter "ADT Plugin" for the Name and the following URL for the Location:

    https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

  3. Click OK Note: If you have trouble acquiring the plugin, try using "http" in the Location URL, instead of "https" (https is preferred for security reasons).

  4. In the Available Software dialog, select the checkbox next to Developer Tools and click Next.
  5. In the next window, you'll see a list of the tools to be downloaded. Click Next.
  6. Read and accept the license agreements, then click Finish. Note: If you get a security warning saying that the authenticity or validity of the software can't be established, click OK.
  7. When the installation completes, restart Eclipse.

As per your given error it is sure an version problem.. you might be trying to add ADT whose version is below ADT-20 and your ecllips is asking for ADT-20..so try to provide link which contains ADT version 20. If still problem exists go to : http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html there they have also given download for ADT-20.zip file download it and install it manually.

(Using the comments to provide an answer)

Try using the latest version of Eclipse (Juno), or at least Eclipse Indigo. The newer version of the Android Framework might have dependencies that the latest versions of Eclipse provide.

If this is incorrect / doesn't work, let us know so we can update the solution.
