Highlight to setup Android build environment with Ubuntu 12.04

  This is a note how to setup the build environment on top of the Ubuntu 12.04.

  I am not going to write down all the details here as most of the steps & details could be found in http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html. Instead I just highlight some common errors here.

i) Install the Java run time engine.

  As the Ubuntu 12.04 is came with the OpenJava run-time & the android build environment is requested a java6 runtime, it will be a problem. Some websites mentioned that user could re-install the jdk with the repo but it just doesn't work. Anyway, the solution is to download it directly from the Java_Archive. You may choose the rpm or bin version. My suggestion is to pick up the bin version as you may need to install the rpm before.

  This is the installation procedures for the jdk.

#change to /opt
#chmod a+x jdk-6u35-linux-x64.bin
#./jdk-6u35-linux-x64.bin

  The above command will unzip the packages. Then what you need is to add the JAVA HOME path to the system. This is a suggestion.

#sudo gedit /etc/profile

  Then add the following lines at the end of the file.

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.6.0_35
CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JAVA_HOME/lib/ft.jar:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar
export PATH=$JAVA_HOE/bin:$PATH

  Save the file & reboot the system, it should be fine now.

  To check the jdk version, simply use the following commands.

java -version & u will see the below response.
