Android offline documentation and sample codes [closed]

I am not able to find the offline docs for android. Can someone provide a link?

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.

here is direct link for api 17 documentation. Just extract at under docs folder. Hope it helps.

https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/docs-17_r02.zip   (129 MB)

At first choose your API level from the following links:

API Level 17: http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/docs-17_r02.zip

API Level 18: http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/docs-18_r02.zip

API Level 19: http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/docs-19_r02.zip

Android-L API doc: http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/docs-L_r01.zip

API Level 24 doc: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/docs-24_r01.zip

download and extract it in your sdk driectory.

In your eclipse IDE:

at project -> properties -> java build path -> Libraries -> Android x.x -> android.jar -> javadoc

press edit in right:

javadoc URL -> Browse

select "docs/reference/" in archive extracted directory

press validate... to validate this javadoc.

In your IntelliJ IDEA

at file -> Project Structure Select SDKs from left panel -> select your sdk from middle panel -> in right panel go to Documentation Paths tab so click plus icon and select docs/reference/ in archive extracted directory.

enjoy the offline javadoc...
