Expert Android Import Project Instructions

This is a page that outlines how to load eclipse ADT projects that are associated with the Expert Android book. The zip files for all the chapters are available here. We have used Android 4.x to develop these projects. These projects should work with any compatible eclipse and JDK that is recommended by the Android 4.x tool set.

The general approach is as follows

Download the zip file for a chapter.
Unzip the file into a staging directory.
Make sure you have 4.0 or recent Android SDK
Use Eclispe import command to import the project
If there are errors, clean the project and rebuild it through eclipse ADT

if you have trouble you can reach us at [email protected] or [email protected]
