How do you compile an Android project into an .apk file in Eclipse without launching the emulator?

Question

I\'m just wondering because I have my own seperate method of getting it on my phone via my web server and the emulator is getting annoying popping up every time.

Answer 1

I have just started practicing with eclipse and I tried copying and installing the apk file from the 'bin' directory, onto my nexus 4. It worked perfectly.
