Thanks guys. I also had a look into the mentioned example /develeopment/samples/ PlatformLibrary but since I have a prebuilt lib this is a little bit different. But what helped me was the example of the libgoogleclient which you can find under android-root/external/libgoogleclient. There is a readybuilt .jar-file and it is declared for use in an Android.mk like this:
============================= Android.mk ===================================== LOCAL_PATH := $(my-dir) include $(CLEAR_VARS) LOCAL_PREBUILT_STATIC_JAVA_LIBRARIES := libgoogleclient:googleclient- lib.jar include $(BUILD_MULTI_PREBUILT) ============================== EOF ======================================= To make use of it in the framework's classes one has to add the following lines to android-root/framework/base/Android.mk: ============================= Android.mk ===================================== ... # this has to go right above the LOCAL_MODULE variable! LOCAL_STATIC_JAVA_LIBRARIES := libgoogleclient ... LOCAL_MODULE := framework ... =========================================================================== Now it works :-) Bye, Patrick On 10 Jul., 16:06, RaviY <yend...@pv.com> wrote: > Did you look at the example in <repo>/development/samples/ > PlatformLibrary ? > > -Ravi > > On Jul 10, 12:40 am, sesha giri <sesha_giri_n...@yahoo.co.in> wrote: > > > I tried the same thing for cpp files > > I had a static library with me so I just exported the library.. > > I created a new directory. > > In that I copied the given .a file and than i createed a new Android.mk > > file with the following contents: > > > LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir) > > include $(CLEAR_VARS) > > > LOCAL_PREBUILT_LIBS := libxxx.a > > > include $(BUILD_MULTI_PREBUILT) > > > LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES += libxxx > > > By this I was able to export the library to the desired path. > > For Java also there should me similar of that kind only please check with > > regard to java. > > > But if this thing dont work for you you need to re-sync the new workspace. > > Becuase In my case it didnt worked on my system but it worked on other > > system with the same thing. > > Dont know what is the reason for that. > > But this is my experience. > > You can give a try and see. > > > -Giri > > > ________________________________ > > From: kenpark <patrick.seiff...@gmx.net> > > To: android-framework <android-framework@googlegroups.com> > > Sent: Friday, 10 July, 2009 4:08:14 AM > > Subject: How to use a prebuilt library in framework classes > > > Hi. > > > How can I make use of the packages and classes of a ready built > > library in the framework's sources? > > > This is how I propagate the existence of the library in an Android.mk > > which is placed under mydroid/external/mylib/ > > =================================== > > # in the Android.mk > > # declaring the library IceAndroid.jar > > h > > LOCAL_PATH := $(my-dir) > > include $(CLEAR_VARS) > > > LOCAL_MODULE:= libiceandroid > > > LOCAL_PREBUILT_STATIC_JAVA_LIBRARIES := libiceandroid:IceAndroid.jar > > include $(BUILD_MULTI_PREBUILT) > > =================================== > > > Then in the Android.mk under mydroid/frameworks/base/ > > =================================== > > ... > > LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES := libiceandroid > > > LOCAL_MODULE := framework > > ... > > =================================== > > > I want to use the library's functionality in the > > android.app.Application class for example.
