必须将android SDK的SDK Target指定为错误

Question

I have just put the first step in android,and just started with hello android example of android http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/hello-world.html . Now the problem is that when i navigate to /tools directory and execute the command android create avd --target 2 --name my_avd ,it gives error like :

mac123:android-sdk-mac_86 mac1$ android create avd --target 2 --name my_av -bash: android: command not found

Please mark that i am working with mac OS. Also is it any other way possible for the installation of the android SDK.

Kindly help me out.

Thank you.

I'm not sure know about mac os, but usually in unix-like systems the current directory is not in the PATH environment variable (a variable that tells your shell where to find executables). So to execute a command in your current directory you have to prepend ./ :

$ cd [android_sdk_dir]/tools
$ ./android create adv [...]

anyway consider beginning with eclipse, it eases a lot of tasks.
