Google has made it unnecessarily complicated to write Android apps under Windows for C++ developers who are used to Visual Studio. Hopefully this posting makes it easier.This article is about setting up your Android development environment in combination with Visual Studio and WinDBG for mobile systems beta. The result is that you can create and debug Android projects from within Visual Studio on emulator and the actual device (that doesn’t need to rooted). Those project files are kept in sync with the original NDK build files (Android.mk etc) so they are compatible with the command-line tools. In other words, you can still use ndk-build and ant. If you are a happy Eclipse user, this posting isn’t for you.
