Hi Romain, thanks for ur replay. I totally agree with you that the @hide will be the better way. But I don't think the @hide really solve my question. I guess I don't make it quite clear.
The scenario is : 1. I have my eclipse and sdk installed on my PC (windows xp) 2. The android source tree stays in vmware (Ubuntu), the make also happens here. The question block me is: After I add some new method in framework, the process of make is fine. After that , I copy all 3 img file in mydroid/out/target/product/generic from Ubuntu to my windows SDK directory , overwrite the exists files. When I coding in eclipse, the IDE seems have no idea of the new method that I have add. The new added method will be treated as syntax error. So no apk will be created. I guess there are something more that I should do to let my eclipse recognize my new method. Give me a hand~ 2010/1/25 Romain Guy <[email protected]> > Do not add new public APIs this way.
