I don't claim to be an expert but would it be possible to generate this Project tree from the build system you folks work on?. I know that there is a possibility that you might have to change the tree structure again ( depending on the convenience etc. ) and the doc could again be out of date !!!!.
I certainly don't know how to but just a thought. -pro On Sat, Jul 25, 2009 at 8:01 AM, Jean-Baptiste Queru <j...@android.com>wrote: > > Oh wow this is badly out of date (probably has been since december, > and got worse since then).
