Android SDK Setup under Windows 7 Pro 64 bit

Question

The short version of my issue at hand     Windows 7 Professional x64 Java JDK 1 6 0 17 x64 Eclipse Galileo w ADT Plugin installed Android SDKtools r04   Since the Android SDK download now only includes the tools  you have to run the included SDK Manager application  SDK Setup  through which you can download the platforms  additional tools  docs etc   Under my current configuration SDK Setup bombs on launch  so  I can t do anything since I do not have a single platform to start writing against   I ve read a few places that the fix is  just install the 32 bit JDK and all will be well  that seems surprising and disappointing option for a work around downloading it now to try    My question is this  anyone else run into this same issue and how did you get past it  Is there a place I can  download by hand  the components I need that I missed on the Android SDK site    Odds are pretty good that the 32 bit  fix  will work  but that seems wrong that I ll have to install a secondary version of the same SDK JRE just to run this tool and to download the actual Android SDK components  Thanks   UPDATE  Well  the work around that requires you to also install 32 bit java and referencing that as your JAVA HOME worked  either by calling the SDK setup manually or through eclipse  I m not particularly happy with that  so I ll leave this one open for the time being in case there are other ways to get this done that people may know about   UPDATE 2  Not directly related since it is Linux centric  but there are troubleshooting steps if trying to run the SDK Eclipse under Linux 64bit where they reference the need to be able to run 32 bit  but nothing similar under windows x64  FINAL UPDATE     Taking the info Seth s answer gave me  and running the bat manually once I knew what file SDK Setup was running  the answer for me was simply adding ANDROID SWT path variable that pointed to a valid location with the x86 64 swt jar    the android sdk directory had one  seemingly in the right place  but it couldn t find it until I added that to my path   Thanks All

Found a solution that modifies the android bat to allow you to start and run the android sdk and avd manager on the x64 jdk   So far I ve been able to start it updating  but I don t know what other implications running the emulator and compiling against the x64 jdk will have   http   code google com p android issues detail id 3917  good luck

Windows 7 isn t a supported platform as far as I know  I use the SDK on 64-bit Ubuntu 9 10 and it works fine  though I did have to install the ia32libs or libcurses bombed every time  That was Eclipse related    The SDK sys reqs makes it clear whatever platform you run  you must be able to run 32-bit code

I initially had this problem and I believe it was because I did not have the 64 bit version of Eclipse

If SDK Setup exe fails  please try to open a command-prompt and run  tools android bat  manually  That s all what SDK Setup does  however the current version has a bug in that it doesn t display errors that the batch might output     gt  cd  lt your-sdk gt  tools   gt  android bat   That way you may see a more useful error message   You must have a java exe on your  PATH

You can enable the Android SDK installer to run on Windows x64 with JDK x64 installed  by exporting HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE JavaSoft Java Development Kit registry key  adding Wow6432Node to all registry keys in the exported file and reimporting it back  should show in regedit as HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE Wow6432Node JavaSoft Java Development Kit as well    Note I have both x64 and x86 JRE installed  If you have only x64 JRE  you might have to export the whole HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE JavaSoft registry key and reimport it under Wow6432Node  Although  I believe that the Android SDK installer just checks the JDK registry key

The following solution was implemented because recently our IDE stopped compiling and building  refresh or clean  on the standard Eclipse IDE for Java Developers version  We kept receiving the error  Your project contains error s   please fix it before running it   We reviewed all errors  cleaned over and over  rebuilt and even created a new workspace and imported the files however nothing worked  Our product manager Johnpaul  found the error with in the compiled build path and even though it was a manual fix it would come back on the next refresh or rebuild so he recommended we back-up our work-space and do a complete re-install of the developers environment    We made the switch as a recommendation we found from  http   knol google com k fred-grott which-eclipse-package-for-android 166jfml0mowlh 18 report-comment-166jfml0mowlh 7wc65w  We now use the Eclipse IDE  Indigo for Java and Report Developers Windows 64 Bit without a problem    After the IDE broke we downloaded    Java Developer Environment with jdk-6u26-windows-x64 Eclipse Indigo IDE for Java and Report Developers Windows 64 Bit Android SDK Tools installer r13-windows   We then    Disconnected from the internet Disabled all Anti-virus programs Disabled our Firewalls   Next we    Uninstalled our SDK via the Eclipse IDE line by line  Updated  installed  our Java Developer Environment with jdk-6u26-windows-x64 Unpacked and over wrote Eclipse with the new Indigo  Eclipse IDE for Java and Report Developers     Windows 64 Bit   List item Turned our anti-virus back on and connected to the internet Reinstalled Android SDK Tools installer r13-windows   We kept all of the default preferences and now everything is working perfectly again  Actually better as the rewrite also solved a few problems with our app not working on some devices  No idea as to why but we aren t complaining  Hope this helps as it is not a true install however a reinstall for Fall 2011 in a Windows 7 64 bit environment

My problem was installing the Android SDK in Eclipse Helios on Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit  I was getting the following error   Missing requirement  Android Development Tools 0 9 7 v201005071157-36220  com android ide eclipse adt feature group 0 9 7 v201005071157-36220  requires  org eclipse jdt junit 0 0 0  but it could not be found  Having followed the advice above to ensure that the JDK was in my PATH variable  it wasn t   installation went smoothly  I guess the error was somewhat spurious  incidentally if you re looking for the JARs that correspond to that class  they were in my profile rather than the Eclipse installation directory   So  check that PATH variable
