Creating Java7MeetsAndroid
Several steps must be followed to create

--activity

--package
your_package_namespace
Exceptfor
--name
(or
-n
),whichspecifiestheproject'sname(whenprovided,this
name will be used for the resulting
.apk
filename when you build your app), all the
following options are required:
• The
--target
(or
-t
) option specifies the app's build target. The
tar-
get_ID
value is an integer value that identifies an Android platform. You
can obtain this value by invoking
android list targets
. If you've
onlyinstalledtheAndroid2.3.3platform,thiscommandshouldoutputasingle
Android 2.3.3 platform target identified as integer ID 1.
• The

)optionspecifiestheprojectdirectory'slocation.Thedir-
ectory is created if it doesn't exist.
