Android: installing Wikitude on an Android emulator

I am trying to write some applications using wikitude and I am having problems even with an example. I placed the sample (BasicOpenARDemo) that comes with the SDK inside eclipse and tried to run it, where I encountered the following error: "wikitude was not found on the system. Click ok to go to the Android market and download wikitude." The first question - I do not understand. Why did I go to download the utility when I have a separate sample inside my eclipse? Are the core files associated with Wikitude with the SDK or the sample itself?

The next question - after some searching on Google, I found that to install this "Android market" I need to follow the manual that goes into the 9th message in the next thread (the message that was written by ronni.rasmussen) - http: / /forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-529170.html

Well, I followed him, and now when I try to click the OK button that appears after the message "wikitude not found on system ...", I am redirected to the Android market, where I find Wikitude, but when I try to download it, I get the error "Download failed. Please try again." How to fix it? Another thing that I do not understand. How is it written in this standalone Android market that the available version of wikitude for Android 1.5 is no longer supported?

As you can see, I'm pretty puzzled here. Hope someone can clear this for me.

I had the same problem. The problem was that installing Wikitude from the market (according to the link you provided) does not guarantee that the system requirements are supported on the virtual device, so it gives an error message when BasicOpenARDemo starts, if it allows you to install it at all.

The solution created AVD using GoogleAPI (it includes map support, I used level 10 API for Android 2.3.3, it did not work for level 8 API), adding a camera, accelerometer, compass, GPS, etc., Virtual device support ( I did it through Eclipse). Then I downloaded .apk for Wikitude and installed it via the command line (.adb).
