The Android SDK is a compressed folder. Download and extract the contents of this
file to a convenient place on your computer. For purposes of this tutorial, the SDK is
installed to c:\software\google\android_m3-rc37a. Obviously, if you are installing this
on Mac OS X and Linux, you should install the SDK where you usually put your
development tools.
Both Eclipse and the Android SDK are installed. It's time to install the Eclipse plug-in
to take advantage of the Eclipse environment.
Obtaining and installing the Eclipse plug-in
The following steps demonstrate the installation of the Eclipse plug-in, officially
known as Android Developer Tools. Note that alternative installation directions are
