             Summary: "Run on Android emulator" fails for AVDs with Google APIs
                 Key: JBIDE-17174
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17174
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: aerogear-hybrid
    Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta1
            Reporter: Vineet Reynolds


The build and deployment to an AVD with target "Google APIs (Google Inc.) - API Level X" fails with the following error message:

{noformat}
An internal error occurred during: "Launching Push-Demo (Android Emulator)".
For input string: "rget: Google APIs (Google Inc."
{noformat}

Recreating the AVD as a 'normal' one lacking Google APIs gets around this issue, but is not a suitable workaround for testing Cordova apps that depend on plugins requiring the Google APIs (like the Aerogear Push plugin that relies on GCM). Without the Google APIs, the GCM service intent will not be invoked, and thus apps will fail to register themselves against a Unified Push Server.

Additionally, the presence of this AVD prevents new Run configurations from being created or existing ones from being modified. Creating a new Android emulator configuration via  {{Run -> Run As -> Run Configurations ...}} results in the same error.
