Failure on installing the ADT Plugin in CCS

I am trying to install ADT plugin for CCS5.2.1 following the steps on http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html#installing . But the installation fails throwing out following error.

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: Android DDMS 20.0.3.v201208082019-427395 (com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms.feature.group 20.0.3.v201208082019-427395)
  Missing requirement: Android DDMS 20.0.3.v201208082019-427395 (com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms.feature.group 20.0.3.v201208082019-427395) requires 'org.eclipse.jdt.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found

I am using Ubuntu 12.04. Does anyone have an idea about how to resolve this issue?

    The Android ADT assumes an Eclipse Java Development Environment and hence assumes JDT is pre-installed. CCS only comes with the C/C++ Development Tools (CDT). So to have both Java and C/C++ development tools, you need to install JDT in your CCS environment.  To install JDT, go to the Help > Install New Software menu, select the eclipse update site (e.g. "http://download.eclipse.org/releases/xx"), and under the Programming Languages section, select Eclipse Java Development Tools.

    That being said, Is there any particular reason you want both development environments in the same Eclipse install? I highly recommend that you keep them separate, have an Eclipse install for Java Development & ADT and another separate install for C/C++ (ie CCS) development.

  • No. There is no particular reason. I wanted to save some space by not installing regular eclipse and  adding everything to CCS since it is also eclipse based. But your suggestion seems to be more clean. In fact  TI wiki have some steps for this addition.

    Thanks for the reply.
