Is there a way to install an older version of Android platform-tools?












0














I have been hunting around for the afternoon to try to see if there is any way to install older versions of the Android platform-tools. I have tried via sdkmanager and by the older android version but all of them seem to always link to the latest version of platform-tools. I am trying to do this without Android Studio.



This also makes it difficult to create server's with the same version since it is constantly pulling the latest version when we provision a new system. I have looked at the release notes and noticed that depending on the build date our systems have different versions of the platform-tools.



https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools



Questions:




  1. Is there a way to download an older version of platform-tools either via command line or on the web?

  2. Is there a way I am missing to specify which version of platform-tools you want to install when using sdkmanager?


Thank you
