Configuring Mobile Designer for the Android SDK
After installing the Android SDK, you need to configure Mobile Designer to provide information about the SDK.
To configure Mobile Designer for the Android SDK
1. Use a text editor to open the following file:
Mobile Designer_directory /sdk.properties
2. Locate the Android section of the file.
3. Set the values for the properties in the following table.
Note: | When specifying paths in the sdk.properties file, use a forward slash character, “/” or an escaped slash character, "\\", to separate folders, even when specifying Window paths. |
Property and Setting |
android.package Set to the default package prefix that Mobile Designer uses when creating the final build for an Android device. |
android.bin.dir.root Set to the path of the location of the default Android SDK that you want Mobile Designer to use to compile mobile applications for Android devices.  For Windows: c:\android-sdk-windowsFor Macintosh: /android-sdk-macosx |
4. Optionally, if you want to override default values for a project, set the project property project.android.sdk.version.override to the API number you want to use.
Note: | Using an API earlier than 21 may cause failed builds. |
5. Optionally configure Proguard, which is included in the Android SDK. For information about the properties you need to set to configure Proguard, see Proguard Obfuscator Settings. 6. Save and close the file.
