Before you can use Eclipse to build your signed Android applications, you will need to install it and its ADT plugin.

  2. Extract Eclipse’s .zip archive to a location. That location will be Eclipse’s installation directory.

The application is now installed. To run Eclipse, go into the extracted folder and double-click eclipse.exe.
