How to run "android.bat sdk" in Windows 7

Question

I have downloaded and installed Android SDK and tried to start android.bat sdk but got following exception:

C:\products\Android\tools>android.bat sdk
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-win32-3550 or swt-win32 in swt.library.path,
        java.library.path or the jar file
        at org.eclipse.swt.internal.Library.loadLibrary(Unknown Source)
        at org.eclipse.swt.internal.Library.loadLibrary(Unknown Source)
        at org.eclipse.swt.internal.C.<clinit>(Unknown Source)

        at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.run(Main.java:118)
        at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.main(Main.java:101)

I have searched for solution a long time but I cannot get it to work. Is there anything I have to set up first?

Answer 1

Just in case this is still bothering anyone: I had this same problem. What I ended up doing was:

1. Searching for the swt.jar file (in your Android SDK directory, look at tools\lib\x86 or tools\lib\x86_64).

2. Unpack it using jar:

   mkdir tmp

   cd tmp

   jar xf <path>\tools\lib\x86\swt.jar

3. Copy the dlls to the tools folder.

   copy tmp\*.dll <path>\tools

After that I was able to run the SDK manager.

This works for me: Add the following in your android.bat file:

 -Dswt.library.path = {swt.jar folder path} 

before this phrase:

com.android.manager.Main

Run android.bat
