Hi,

it's not a setup problem on your machine, it's Windows related problem in 
Main.makeAPK()

  String[] cmd = install ? new String[]{"ant", "install"} : new String[]{"ant"};
  File wd = new File( dir, "activity" );
  run(cmd, wd);

In this case on a Windows machine an executable "ant.exe" would be expected in 
the program execution path.

As windows decide on the file extension if a binary (*.exe) or script (e.g. 
*.cmd) is executable, I see no simple workaround to get it work, beside the 
code needs to be changed for the Windows behavior.

I will have a look and post a patch.

cheers
Frank

Hi,

I had a look into it, see the intermediate state below.

The problem with ant could be solved on Windows machines with something similar 
to
  String[] cmd = install ? new String[]{"ant.bat", "install"} : new String[]{"ant.bat"};

But this is only half of the way. It seems following issue is still pending: 
see https://code.google.com/p/droiddraw/issues/detail?id=165#c3

I'll try this week to have a closer look into both.

cheers
Frank

Frank,
If you develop a fix, please send me a patch and I'll integrate it into the 
code.

Thanks!

Hi Brendan,

the attached patch will manage the executable names in the different supported 
OS.

In combination with the patch for issue #165 the "Export to .apk" feature 
should now work as expected.

cheers
Frank
