I am not able to find the offline docs for android. Can someone provide a link?
In Android Studio 4.0's settings window, go to “Editor” > “General” and check “Show quick documentation on mouse move”. You can leave the delay at the default value. In Android Studio 4.2, the option has moved to “Editor” > “General” > “Code Completion”. Check “Show the documentation popup”.
The Android SDK is a software development kit that includes a comprehensive set of development tools. These include a debugger, libraries, a handset emulator based on QEMU, documentation, sample code, and tutorials.
You can get it under $ANDROID_SDK/docs/. If it is not already there download it via the "Documentation for Android SDK" option. Alternatively you can download the source tree and link it up with your IDE.
If you install the SDK, the offline documentation can be found in $ANDROID_SDK/docs/
.
This thread is a little old, and I am brand new to this, but I think I found the preferred solution.
First, I assume that you are using Eclipse and the Android ADT plugin.
In Eclipse, choose Window/Android SDK Manager. In the display, expand the entry for the MOST RECENT PLATFORM, even if that is not the platform that your are developing for. As of Jan 2012, it is "Android 4.0.3 (API 15)". When expanded, the first entry is "Documentation for Android SDK" Click the checkbox next to it, and then click the "Install" button.
When done, you should have a new directory in your "android-sdks" called "doc". Look for "offline.html" in there. Since this is packaged with the most recent version, it will document the most recent platform, but it should also show the APIs for previous versions.
