Folks,
I've spent a couple days now googling this and trying to figure out
all the steps, and I'm getting really frustrated. I'm using the
Platform Library example and trying to figure out how to add my own
library to android. It resides in my own namespace, and is intended
for a full image build so that it's already on a device ready for
other applications to use.
I have a Unix system that I can compile the android source code on,
and have my library already designed. What I can't figure out is the
following -
1. Where do I put my library in the file system so that it will get
compiled? Do I put it under framework and create a new folder there or
somewhere else? The README.txt mentions a file to be put in /system/
etc/permissions to declare things to the framework - however nowhere
under mydroid (top level folder), can I find anything that looks like
it goes to /system/etc/ on the device. I know it's got to be there
somewhere.
2. What base build system files do I have to change so that this jar
will compile and be included correctly? The top level android.mk file
for the whole system? I'm confused on this point.
3. When an application uses my library, is there anyway to tell
Eclipse about this? I know the Android.mk is how you specify
LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES, but there is no Android.mk for eclipse projects.
Does using a custom library preclude the ability to use eclipse?
Any help at all would be very appreciated.
Thanks.
