Kaushik,

Just adding the path of the JDK you installed is not sufficient. Your system is already configured to use a particular JDK via symlinks in your existing PATH. What you need to do is redirect those symlinks to the Sun JDK. For example:

sudo update-alternatives â€“config java

It’s an interactive command line app. Choose Sun’s JDK.

If you don’t have update-alternatives installed, you will need to install that first (i.e. sudo apt-get install update-alternatives).

For access to the android SDK commands, you need to include the android SDK’s tools path. For example if you installed the android sdk into /var/lib, you’d put this in your .bashrc:

PATH=”/var/lib/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.0_r1/tools:$PATH”

Hope this helps!

Hi,
My system is a Core2 Duo with Ubuntu 8.10.
I have JDK installed and ecplise downloaded from their website. I have set the PATH env to point to the java installation and no can execute eclipse from commandline (It does not work from natulius).

For the next step I wanted to check the android SDK from command line.
IT DOESNT WORK.

From command line did a ./emulator and it says command not found which I think is really weird.

Regards
Kaushik
