From Terminal or Java generate signed apk file from Android project

Question

I've checked out the android docs about creating an application from ant & then blatantly from terminal. I'm trying to figure out how eclipse is able to generate a signed apk file from an android project.... ?

A list of command would be helpful or if there is already a Java script out there I would probably propose on the spot.

Answer 1

Where did you check in the Android docs? A cursory google search produces this: Building and Running from Command Line .
