Follow these steps to get started with Android development.
Setting up your machine
NetWeaver Developer Studio
To configure Android Plug in for NetWeaver Developer Studio (NWDS) we need to do the following:
- Download SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
- Extract the SDK to a folder
- Start NWDS. Navigate to Help ->Find and Install
- Click on Create a New Remote Site
- On the New Website update Name field as Android and in the URL field: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
- Select Search for new features to install and click ok
- Click Install All and Apply Changes
- Restart NWDS
- Navigate to Windows -> Preferences
- Select Android Preferences and update the SDK location where it is extracted to from Step 2.
Now we can start the Android Apps Development in NetWeaver Developer Studio.

This describes how to wrap any SAP RFC-Call into a webservice that can be used by an Webservice-Client.
Too bad that Android does only support REST and not SOAP-Based Webservices. ksoap2 could be used, as google told us. But we are currently trying to create some other simple Library that can be used on Android as SOAP-Enabled-Webservice-Client in connection with SAP PI. Say tuned, I guess in round abount 1 Month we will be ready (and this will be released under GPL2)

I’m currently studying Android but I have problems with the emulator running on my developer machine here at SAP – the problem is that I am not able to access the Internet.
I tried to set-up the proxy (-http-proxy http://10.55.76.16:8080 -debug-proxy) but the error is the same. The most I could get from LogCat is:
12-15 18:07:22.060: ERROR/System(60): Failure starting core service
12-15 18:07:22.060: ERROR/System(60): java.lang.SecurityException

12-15 18:07:22.060: ERROR/System(60): at android.os.ServiceManager.addService(ServiceManager.java:72)
and
12-15 18:15:26.927: ERROR/CheckinTask(185): Checkin failed: https://android.clients.google.com/checkin (request #0)
12-15 18:15:26.927: ERROR/CheckinTask(185): java.net.UnknownHostException: android.clients.google.com

12-15 18:15:26.927: ERROR/CheckinTask(185): at java.net.InetAddress.getAllByNameImpl(InetAddress.java:278)
Do you have any idea what else I can try.
Thanks,

I tried to update everything but looking at the plugin list it still shows this as 3.3.200.v20070530
Any thoughts?
