I'm trying to export a signed Android application in Eclipse.
I think I'm going in the right direction:
- Right click on project > Android Tools > Export Signed Application Package
- The Export Android Application wizard appears.
- Select the project I want to export, click Next.
- The Keystore Selection screen appears.
It looks like this (forgive my ascii, file uploader not working):
[ ] Use existing keystore
[o] Create new keystore
Location: __________ [Browse]
Password: __________
Confirm: __________
I don't have an existing keystore, so I click the "Create new keystore" radio button. The location field remains active, must be filled, and if I browse to some directory I'd like the keystore to go after it's created, the dialog complains that "Keystore path is a directory."
- Is it actually possible to create a keystore with this dialog?
- If not, how can I create one? My google-fu has provided only failed experiments for me so far. I'm using Eclipse on a PC.
The Compile and sign with Eclipse ADT section in the android developer page seems to think this will just work out, but I can't get past this part of the dialog. I can export unsigned .apk files just fine.
Thank you!
