I am having some difficulty compiling the source code. This post is largely posting my problems and solutions that I was unable to find anywhere else.
(I have been following the directions from here: http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html) Repo seems to be downloading the code without a problem. When I run make... initially I encountered compiler errors having to do with const char* - > char* for several instances of strchar(...) and strrchar(...) being invalid. I corrected these errors by casting using strchar((char*)...). I encountered and error having to do with something not being able to find '-lasound'. I reinstalled lib-asound a few times, the correct solution was to install the 32-bit library for it. Then I encountered and error with a something not being able to find the wx/wxprec.h header file. (wx was not on that list of stuff to install, however I needed to install libwxbase2.8-dev and then move the it from /usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/* to /usr/include/wx/* I have attempted to run make using 'make -j4' (my computer has a dual core processor), however it gets a few minutes into the compile and gives a linking error with a .so file. if I just run 'make' with no arguments it passes that point by over an hour, but obviously takes a longer time to get there. I was also looking into using distcc to spread out the load across another computer or two - but I am not sure if there is anything to be gained (it looks like a large portion of the work is linking and not actual compiling). Addititonally, while I was able to run 'lunch' the first few times, it seems to have broken since, and now when I run lunch it says: Using lunch master without the GUI. No such file: /home/andrew/.lunchrc. I have redownloaded the repo and reinstalled lunch with no effect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
