Error while Building Android

[feras ahmed]

Hello..

I checked android source code and start building it using make command
but I got the following error .

doc tag do not match
target SharedLib: libc (out/target/product/generic/obj/
SHARED_LIBRARIES/libc_intermediates/LINKED/libc.so)
out/target/product/generic/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libc_intermediates/
arch-arm/bionic/exidx_dynamic.o: file not recognized: File truncated
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [out/target/product/generic/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/
libc_intermediates/LINKED/libc.so] Error 1

Thanks

If this is a one-time issue, you can try to delete the offending file
out/target/product/generic/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libc_intermediates/arch-arm/bionic/exidx_dynamic.o
and try to build again. The issue might disappear on its own.

I tried to delete this file but I got a new error

target SharedLib: libc (out/target/product/generic/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libc_intermediates/LINKED/libc.so)
out/target/product/generic/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libc_intermediates/bionic/dlmalloc.o: file not recognized: File truncated

Sounds like something is/was wrong on your machine that causes object
files to be created corrupted. It's hard to guess what that might be,
though.

So what should I do?

[Feras Odeh]

I ' ve looked at the build trace and found this line
 find: `drm/java': No such file or directory

does this have something to do with this error?

Thanks

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

That's definitely unrelated.

My best guess would be to delete the out/ directory, and try building
again, possibly without a -j option to put less stress on the system
and maybe get a better understanding of what happens when those files
get compiled.

Hello Jean

Thanks for your help I got it, It was that I followed the instructions on  android site. really I start by using java 5 and ubuntu 32 then I found on the mail list that only java 6 and 64bit is the only platform supported. Isn't this confusing?

Thanks
