I don’t have much use for the emulator now since I have my Spica. However to install the application into it requires some changes. There is 2 parts. My Spica will by default allow me to install applications for Android market. So firstly, i have to make setting changes to my Spica itself.
- Go to Menu-> Settings -> Applications.
- Put a tick on the Unknown Sources check box.
- Go to Development menu and put a tick the USB debugging check box.
Okay, the Spica is set to accept my application. Now comes the Eclipse portion. When i debug or run the android program, it will be installed to the emulator by default. To make this happen,
- I right click on the project that you want to run and select Run As and then Run Configuration. (Or Run -> Run Configurations. But i have to make sure the project i want to launch is highlighted)
- In the Run Configuration, go to Target tab, uncheck the virtual device that is currently checked, click Apply and then click Run button.
- As my Spica is connected, it will be listed in the Android Device Chooser dialog. So I select the Choose a running Android device option and then highlight my Spica from the table and then click Okay button. (If the emulator is running, it will also be listed in the table)
- That’s it! I have installed the application on my Spica.
