Apps help please with Eclipse on Fedora 17 Xfce

[jaison80]

I've extracted Android SDK to /home/jaison/AndroidSDK via the directions from HOWTO Setup Android Development - FedoraProject

So why is Eclipse being a pain acting like the directory is not there?

also is the environment variable they recommend the correct one? Shouldn't I be able to execute android sdk manager by issuing the command android in the terminal instead of having to do

[jaison@jaison ~]$ AndroidSDK\ /tools/./android?

I'm no Linux guru, but I have been familiar with it for years. Any help is greatly appreciated!

DId you use the Browse option to find the folder, or did you type it in?
In .bash_profile, change $HOME to ~ in your SDK folder path, i.e. ~/AndroidSDK/tools:~/AndroidSDK/platform-tools. If it still doesn't work, replace ~ with the absolute path (/home/<username>/<sdk>/tools)
I put my SDK folder in the /usr directory.

I had brought an editor up through the terminal.

So yeah i changed the $HOME to ~ and now its working great.

thank you!
