Import android java source code to eclipse.

[mike s]

Hi,

I was able to download android 4.0 source and build it locally. But when I tried to create an eclipse project from it by following the steps here:

http://source.android.com/source/using-eclipse.html , it won't build under eclipse.

Is there a new .classpath what I can use within eclipse? I get a lot of error about ***Filter class not found. But when I search the android source code to find those classes and include in the eclipse build path, it said package is wrong or something.

Any one know how to work around that issue?

Thank you.

I got the same error.
These *filter classes' file path differs from their package declaration.
I guess there must be some generated jar lib of this "filterpacks" package, but I can't find it out. Too many jar file in "out" folder...

Finally, I found the correct jar file...
Add this jar file to project's lib:
.../filterw_intermediates/classes.jar
You will find all errors related disappear.

All jar files in that folder work, EXCEPT javalib.jar.
You can choose one.

I don't use eclipse to build the Android platform.

But the platform build system does support some limited support for eclipse.
Run:

$make ECLIPSE-lunch

It will generate .classpath that include both checked-in source and generated source.

Thanks for your info, but I have a question.

After building the source with "make  ECLIPSE-lunch", can I still launch it with emulator or flash it into device?

What's more.

You say you don't use eclipse. Is there any other good tools to view and modify android source code?

Thanks!

It does not influence the usual build result.

Vim + grep works fine for me. 

Some time ago I used to browse the Android source code in Eclipse but never build it from Eclipse.
