Installing android_core¶
These instructions assume that you have already completed the rosjava_core installation and build instructions.
These instructions also assume you are using Ubuntu. However, the differences between platforms should be minimal.
There are a few additional dependencies required for building android_core:
- the Android SDK and
- Apache Ant (e.g. on Ubuntu Lucid: sudo apt-get install ant1.8 ant1.8-optional)
As with rosjava_core, the recommend installation procedure for android_core is to use rosws. See the rosws tutorial for more information if you find the following quick start instructions to be insufficient.
cd ~/my_workspace
rosws merge https://raw.github.com/rosjava/android_core/master/.rosinstall
rosws update
source setup.bash
Note
You should source the correct setup script for your shell (e.g. setup.bash for Bash or setup.zsh for Z shell).
If you would like to build the android_core documentation, you will also need Pygments 1.5+ and Sphinx 1.1.3+.
sudo pip install --upgrade sphinx Pygments
