How to use Eclipse to create released signed apk? [duplicate]

Question

This question already has an answer here:

• Android Application APK signing? 3 answers

I have been a Java programmer/instructor since Java was Oak (which is the development name for Java).

Where can one find how to use eclipse to sign an app for release? I have found several how to docs/web sites, but not detailed enough for a newbie to this android world.

I have a screen that comes up that wants the Alias, organizational unit, etc... what are valid values for these entries?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
