how to update eclipse 3.5.2 to eclipse 3.6.2 for latest android?

Question

I'm developing an android app with the eclipse as an IDE. My eclipse version is 3.5.2. Now I want to convert the android app to latest version which is for android 4.1. In my eclipse it displays up to only 4.0. So I need update.

When I click the help->check for new software in eclipse. Then it displays some android new components. If I click to install means, then it shows an message requires "eclipse 3.6.2"

I cannot find a way to update the eclipse to 3.6.2. Because if I newly install another eclipse means I want to totally change my sdk path,more changes,etc

So I need to update eclipse 3.6.2 without deleting, modifying the content of already had android apps.

So please all give your ideas.

You have to update android sdk from android manager not eclipse

Answer 3

Get the Eclipse version Indigo (3.7)

To upgrade from Galileo(3.5) or Helios(3.6) to Indigo (3.7), you first need to add the Indigo software repository as follows:

1. Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites

2. Click 'Add'

3. Enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo

4. Click 'Ok'

Now to upgrade installed software, do the following:

1. Help > Check for Updates

2. If updates are found, proceed through the install wizard and click Finish at the end

3. f you are upgrading the platform itself, when you are prompted to restart it is strongly recommended to do so. A restart may not be required when updating other features, but always select to restart if you are unsure
