+
If you are developing in Eclipse with ADT, note that the SDK Tools r9 is
+designed for use with ADT 9.0.0 and later. After installing SDK Tools r9, we
+highly recommend updating your ADT Plugin to 9.0.0.
+
+If you are developing outside Eclipse, you must have Apache
+Ant 1.8 or later.

+-
+
If you are upgrading to SDK Tools r9 from SDK Tools r7 or earlier, the default installed location
+for the adb
tool has changed from <SDK>/tools/adb
to
+<SDK>/platform-tools/adb
. This means that you should
+add the new location to your PATH and modify any custom build scripts to
+reference the new location. Copying the adb
executable from the new
+location to the old is not recommended, since subsequent updates to the SDK
+Tools will delete the file.
+
+
+- General notes:
+-
+
+ - The default ProGuard configuration,
proguard.cfg
, now ignores the following classes:
+
+ - classes that extend {@link android.preference.Preference}
+ - classes that extend {@link android.app.backup.BackupAgentHelper}
+
+
+ - Ant lib rules now allow you to override
java.encoding
, java.source
,
+ and java.target
properties.
+ - The default encoding for the
javac
Ant task is now UTF-8.
+ - The LogCat view in DDMS now properly displays UTF-8 characters.
+ - The SDK Manager is more reliable on Windows. For details on the improvements, see the
+ Android Tools Project Site.
+ - If you enabled snapshots for an AVD, they are automatically captured. The emulator also now restores to the state when
+ it last closed almost instantly.
+ - Fixed the missing JAR file error that prevented
draw9patch
from running.
+ - Fixed the Windows launch scripts
hierarchyviewer
and ddms
to support
+ the new location of adb
.
+ - Known issues with emulator performance: Because the Android emulator must simulate the ARM
+instruction set architecture on your computer, emulator performance is slow. We're working hard to
+resolve the performance issues and it will improve in future releases.
