'mm' failures caused by aidl

[brian]

Hi,

Prior to running this down I wanted to see if anyone is already
looking into
it or knows if this should NOT work for any reason.

I'm seeing problem with 'mm' failing to work properly due to what
appears
a problem with a missing dependency. The problem does not occur in
a built tree --only a clean one.

Error:

make: *** No rule to make target `out/host/linux-x86/bin/aidl', needed
by `out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/framework_intermediates/src/
core/java/android/accessibilityservice/
IAccessibilityServiceConnection.java'. Stop.

Test case

$ cd <src-root>
$ make clobber
$ cd frameworks/base/core/java/android/accessibilityservice
$ mm


thanks,
brian

I think that mm assumes that you do have a fully built tree, since its
point is to not check dependencies.

From a clean state, I think that you're looking for "make framework",
which will build all the framework's dependencies. Once that's done,
mm should work.

before you use mm commands ,you can use . build/envsetup.sh commands.

Hi All,

I'm getting this error when im trying to build individual module Email in aosp 5.0

make: *** No rule to make target `out/host/linux-x86/bin/aidl', needed by `out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/com.android.emailcommon_intermediates/src/src/com/android/emailcommon/service/IEmailService.java'.  Stop.

Is there a reason for this ?? How to fix this??

Thanks,

Dulan

The 'mm' shell function only builds the modules in the current
directory, not their depenencies. In other words, it's useful
for incremental builds but not clean builds. If you want to
build the email application and its dependencies but not the
whole platform you can run 'make Email'.
