Preparing for the Exercises
The tutorial assumes that you have some familiarity with basic Android
application concepts and terminology. If you are not, you
should read Application
Fundamentals before continuing.
This tutorial also builds on the introductory information provided in the
Hello World
tutorial, which explains how to set up your Eclipse environment
for building Android applications. We recommend you complete the Hello World
tutorial before starting this one.
To prepare for this lesson:
- Download the project
exercises archive (.zip).
- Unpack the archive file to a suitable location on your machine.
- Open the
NotepadCodeLab folder.
Inside the NotepadCodeLab folder, you should see six project
files: Notepadv1,
Notepadv2, Notepadv3,
Notepadv1Solution, Notepadv2Solution
and Notepadv3Solution. The Notepadv# projects are
the starting points for each of the exercises, while the
Notepadv#Solution projects are the exercise
solutions. If you are having trouble with a particular exercise, you
can compare your current work against the exercise solution.
