Question

I am working to setup Android NDK on Fedora 16 AMD. So far… I have installed everything as usual: SDK, NDK, Eclipse IDE, JDK, etc.

On Eclipse it works fine, and the SDK is visible on:

Window > Preferences > Android > SDK Location: /home/user/android-sdks

I have also established the path to be able to run command on prompt terminal. To be absolutely sure that it would be set to work, I did it on following files ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc, as follows:

# Android Path
export ANDROID_SDK="/home/user/android-sdks"
export ANDROID_NDK="/opt/android/android-ndk-r7"
export PATH="$PATH:ANDROID_SDK/tools:$ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools:$ANDROID_NDK"

Then, I reboot and run on terminal:

$ android
bash: android: command not found...

But if I go in the folder

/home/user/android-sdks/tools/

and try on terminal:

./android

Then android runs.

I tried many times, many ways, and nothing. What it is missing to get android properly set-up on my path, so I could run commands directly on terminal?

All suggestions and comments are highly appreciated and welcome.

Try this:

ANDROID_SDK="/home/user/android-sdks"
ANDROID_NDK="/opt/android/android-ndk-r7"
PATH="$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK/tools:$ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools:$ANDROID_NDK"

You’ve missed the $ before the first use of ANDROID_SDK variable.
