Is there a manifest of resources? or are you just packaging everything
that's in the directory?

Hi everybody,
I just landed Bug 934646 [1] which changes how Android resources are
processed. This means you don't need to declare resources in
moz.build anymore!
The build system now reads resources directly from
mobile/android/base/resources (and $BRANDING_DIRECTORY/res) and only
reads strings.xml from $OBJDIR. (Formerly, we performed an awkward
delete-and-copy dance to populate $OBJDIR/mobile/android/base/res.)
This is a win for editing in IDEs, because the build system and IDEs
are now editing the same files in $SRCDIR.
There are a few potential issues:
* a clobber might be needed (or, rm -rf
$OBJDIR/mobile/android/base/res): old resources left over are likely
to conflict with the resources from $SRCDIR.
* removing resources doesn't automatically trigger a new APK. Touch
some other resource to trigger a fresh resource build. This is just
hard to do with Make, and isn't worth the effort.
* we might have dependency problems that I haven't foreseen. If you
find that built APKs aren't picking up resource changes, file a ticket
and CC me.
Best,
Nick
