I am trying to compile Android for Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit system. I am following the guide on http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
But I get the following error:
You are attempting to build with the incorrect version of java.
Your version is: java version "1.6.0_20". The correct version is: Java SE 1.6.
Guess, ubuntu support for Java SE packages has been halted. Therefore should I now downgrade my Java JDK to 1.6?? Please help
Here someone faced the very same problem as yours. The solution, "after uninstalling OpenJDK and Sun Java, I reinstalled Sun Java 6 JDK by itself, rebooted, and all is well." Check the link for more informations. While searching for that, I also stumbled upon an issue with 64 bits, that is not your point, but may be useful for someone else.
