Struggling to build aapt/aapt2

[Connor Tumbleson]

Hi,

After my last sync I knew something was off - I missed the announcement of master to main. So I swapped out the entire tree and re-synced (-c -j8).

└─$ repo sync -c -j8
Fetching: 100% (1376/1376), done in 1m12.709s
Checking out: 100% (1376/1376), done in 21.502s
repo sync has finished successfully.

Once done I did my classic.

source build/envsetup.sh
m aapt

m aapt2

This failed immediately with

> build/make/core/release_config.mk:231: error: No release config set for target; please set TARGET_RELEASE, or if building on the command line use 'lunch <target>-<release>-<build_type>', where release is one of: next protobuf_flags trunk
trunk_food trunk_staging.

So I thought I would do "lunch sdk-eng" which failed

Invalid lunch combo: sdk-eng
Valid combos must be of the form <product>-<release>-<variant>

So I try lunch sdk-trunk-eng which fails, so then I try and run "lunch" to figure out what I'm missing

└─$ lunch

You're building on Linux
Warning: Cannot display lunch menu.

I'm just lost - all I want to do is build aapt & aapt2 and I'm struggling.

google changed lunching a little bit, instead of release variant "trunk" do "ap1a"
like this: sdk-ap1a-eng

[enh]

yeah, the format of lunches changed recently. it's pretty annoying
(and i don't think there's any high-level documentation of what it
means or why).

but if you look at
https://source.android.com/docs/setup/build/building (say) you can see
a new lunch that _does_ work (which is basically following the advice
from the error message, but contains a concrete example of what a
new-format lunch looks like).

Thanks, but I don't have much luck with either option.

I see you got ap1a from the latest build ids. That resulted in

> build/make/core/release_config.mk:125: error: release-config failed to run.
> 06:16:58 dumpvars failed with: exit status 1

It worked well with trunk_staging, but failed compilation of aapt (or aapt2) with so many errors about undefined modules.

In the past - I didn't really have to invoke lunch at all. I could run envsetup, then just run "m aapt". Do you know what the default target was prior to being required to invoking lunch?
