====== Android Programming Workshop — Purdue Local Arrangements ======

Interested in Java programming on the Android phone?  O'Reilly is sponsoring an online tutorial workshop:

  * [[http://training.oreilly.com/androidapps-java/|Developing Android Applications with Java]] \\
  * Instructor: Tony Hillerson
  * Tuesdays at 2:00 EST, February 9-March 16, 2010

I am arranging a "local viewing party" to watch the sessions live and offer help, answer questions, and provide additional material as necessary.  I will have a limited number of Android G1 phones to try out (you can also use the emulator).

Local (Purdue) viewing:

  * LWSN B158

If you are interested in participating, register at the site above and let [[mailto:jtk@purdue.edu|me]] know (so I can make sure we have enough room).  If you miss the first session, that's probably OK--we can catch you up.

====== Preparing for the Workshop ======

If you do not have an account on the CS machines, send me [[mailto:jtk@purdue.edu|email]].

If you have a laptop, you may want to use it rather than one of the lab machines.  You'll need the Java SDK, the Android SDK, Eclipse, and the Android Development Tools (ADT).

  * http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ (get eclipse-java-galileo-SR1-linux-gtk.tar.gz)
  * http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

If you can come early for at least the first day (today), it will help getting started.  I'll plan to be in the lab at 1:30.

====== First Command Line Application ======

<code>
% cd to a directory of your choice
% android create project --target 2 --path ./FirstApp --activity FirstApp --package apt.tutorial
% cd FirstApp
% android &
...create an Android AVD...
