Here's a walkthrough on installing the calendar application in the emulator. I haven't tried this myself. For the app I wrote that worked with the calendar I just used an actual phone for all the testing.

Thanks a lot. I got an idea how I can access calender app from another application from your response.but, my question was on how to include calender app and its provider in sdk.. Here is the procedure I followed and was easily able to load calender app and launch the same from emulator.1) include calender and calenderprovider tag in core.mk(/build/target/product/core.mk) in a similar way as other apps.2) run the cmds: "make sdk" on the src code folder.3) load the sdk(path:/out/host/linux-x86/sdk/) and launch the emulator,its ready.Thank you

Did the contents of the page I linked to titled "Loading The Calendar Application In The Android Emulator" not work?

It looks like the link to the walkthrough (entitled "Loading The Calendar Application in the Android Emulator") is broken. Is there another URL for that page?

That link gives an idea how u can make use of content provider of calender in different app. Is that u are looking for? or you have some other query ?

I would like to be able to sync the Android Calendar with other PIM's and therefore would like to access the Calendar Content Provider from different applications.
