Weekly Virtual Machine / Stack updates - 2017.07.15

Android SDK update note: the previous android sdk update ... command is no longer available in the latest Android SDK.

If you install packages manually with android sdk update please change them to sdkmanager PACKAGE.

E.g. instead of:

echo y | android update sdk --no-ui --all --filter build-tools-24.0.1 | grep 'package installed'

use:

sdkmanager "build-tools;24.0.1"

That said, if you can, please use the the Install Missing Android Tools step instead, that should be able to detect and install all the tools your Android project requires but are not preinstalled.


If you use the old android update sdk command on a stack where that鈥檚 no longer available (on the LTS Android stack it is still available of course), you鈥檒l get an error like:

*************************************************************************
The "android" command is deprecated.
For manual SDK, AVD, and project management, please use Android Studio.
For command-line tools, use tools/bin/sdkmanager and tools/bin/avdmanager
