I'd like to know if they have information about whether the Android emulator, and Android Studio, work better and faster on Linux.
In which Linux distribution do you advise me to install the SDK?
I'm using flutter on linux and I'd say that it is much faster than running it on anyother platform, you can even compare the app gradle build between mac, win and linux the results will be amazing on linux. I'm using it on ubuntu 20.04 it doesn't matter on what linux distribution you run the performance is gonna be the same.
As others have said, this is a matter of opinion. However, Google mostly uses Debian in house, so if you want an "official" recommendation go with that.
Flutter should run fine in every distro, though.
I have installed Unity 3d on my Linux system.I have downloaded the Window version of the standard assets (.exe) since there is no option for installation in Linux, I tried installing the Standard assets(.exe) through wine... but im getting an error that unity requires windows 7 or more... But since this is Linux i cant help it.Is there any other way?
You can't expect .exe program to work on Linux out of the Box without the help of visual machine or some other software such as Wine. You don't even need the exe program to install the Standard Assets. You can get it directly from the Asset store from your Linux.
It's recommended that you use other OS at this time because the Linux version of Unity is still in experimental mode and you may have problems with it in the future.
You just download unity using the following link,
Unity 5.1 for Linux
It will contains standard asset also. Don't forget to select standard assets while installing.
Been searching on the web for days...
There are a lot of threads about install flex or Apache flex but never Apache flex 4.11 on eclipse in a Linux environment. I am looking to develop a flash website with completely open source tools that is why I am using such a platform. Any assistance you could provide would be much appreciated.
I have eclipse install under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and I am not sure how to proceed. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
UPDATE
I am reading more and more about dropping of linux support for this tool. I am still holding out hope for multi-platform development from linux but may need to go dual boot create my flash content in windows then move it to the linux.
i am trying to explore LWUIT using NetBeans 7.2
I am working on Linux Machine.
After a week working with LWUIT, I got to know about LWUIT Designer or known as LWUIT Resource Editor.... But i am not getting how to install / run it on my linux system.
Kindly help regarding this
You need to install a J2ME simulator such as the WTK. Most aren't available for Linux and only work on Windows there might be an old version of the WTK that might work on Linux.
Alternatively you can use Codename One, which is developed by the authors of LWUIT (myself included) and doesn't require all that hassle (works on Linux seamlessly).
The question is clear from the title.
Is there an SDK for the Java Micro Edition available for Mac OS X or Linux? Or does one need Windows XP to develop JME applications?
No, with a 'but'
There is no WTK (Wireless Toolkit) from the main vendors available for Mac (NetBeans Wiki reference) so basically you can't debug nor test the code. But, you can use an emulator from a third co: MPowerPlayer
If you are using netbeans in any other OS but windows, you still can download and add the J2ME packages using the tools/plugins menu.
Then you can add the MPowerPlayer to the IDE as a J2ME platform. Netbeans (and i guess any other IDE with J2ME WTK support) will recognize it as a valid WTK,
I've posted an specific entry about this in my blog, but it's in spanish, although maybe you can follow the images. Give it a try, and don't hesitate to ask anything:
J2ME in Mac Os with NetBeans
Offically Sun's WTK is available only on Linux and Windows, however both SDKs can be used on Mac to compile J2ME applications.
Unfortunately the emulator and the preverifier will not work (since they are not Java based) so you will not be able to test your application.
To solve this problem you can use MicroEmulator or MPowerPlayer for both emulation and preverification (you can also use PhoneME for preverification).
This is a good guide to setup you development environment using Eclipse and this one is good for Netbeans.
But, if I can give an advice (I'm working since two years on J2ME development and I'm a Mac user), it is better if you develop on Windows or Linux through a virtual machine, because the two emulators do not have a very good compliance to the JSR's standard and do not include all of them.
Moreover on OSX it will be very difficult for you to test features like Bluetooth or LocationAPIs.
Netbeans has a JME SDK
May be this is helpful, I've found a Java ME Developer Studio for Mac OS X, developed by Motorola, I haven't tested yet, it's only and EA Release, I'll try this one, and I'll let u know in a subsequent post,

Oddly enough ... I just set this up 5 minutes ago on Linux.
You will need:
http://linux.com/archive/feature/122050
http://java.sun.com/products/sjwtoolkit/download.html <-- WTK
The WTK installer will ask where your JDK is. Do
find . -name "jar" -type f
and then where you have
/usr/lib/jvm/foo/bar/bin/jar
Knock of the 'jar' and give that path to the installer. This will install ktoolbar which includes a phone emulator.
The download netbeans and install the mobile addons
This is not pure J2ME, but includes most of the API
I am using it to develop an application for my SE-C902
Yes, the official SDK for OSX can be downloaded here: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javame/downloads/sdk30-mac-jsp-137878.html. Microemulator, http://www.microemu.org, also works well, and I've heard people use MPowerPlayer with success.
