Hi, Dhaval. The method in the error, "*java.io.PrintStream.printf*", is actually a Java method that has no direct association with Android ( http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/PrintStream.html). If I had to guess, I'd recommend checking to make sure Java is installed on your machine. If you've got all the Java components on your machine, maybe Eclipse just doesn't know how to find them.
When I started from the instructions here<http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html>, I felt as if I had a complete and thorough setup at the end. Give it a shot; I think the line in particular that would deal with what you're seeing is: "In particular, you may need to install the JDK<http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp>(version 5 or 6 required) and Eclipse <http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/> (version 3.4 or 3.5, needed only if you want develop using the ADT Plugin).". Keep in mind that I'm a newbie in this environment too, so don't be surprised if my suspicion is not the whole case! -Danny *whelps helping whelps* On Wed, May 12, 2010 at 12:14 AM, dhaval shah <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi everybody, > > > i am trying to install SDK along with Eclipse and ADT on linux. > i have already install Eclipse 3.5.2. > now when i try to follow the step of *tools/android* > i get following error > > *Starting Android SDK and AVD Manager > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: method > java.io.PrintStream.printf with signature > (Ljava.lang.String;[Ljava.lang.Object;)Ljava.io.PrintStream; was not found. > at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.showMainWindow(Main.java:268) > at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.doAction(Main.java:247) > at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.run(Main.java:92) > at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.main(Main.java:81) > > *can someone help why this error comes ? > what are reasons possible for this error? > your help is appriciated a lot. > > thanks & regards, > Dhaval shah. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Android Beginners" group. > > NEW!
