Conditional Compilation of source files based on environmental variable in soong build system
shalini...@gmail.com
Hi,
I have been working with Android O preview source code and have been studying its new build system, soong.
I’m facing issue regarding conditional compilation of source files inside different directories based on value of environment variable.
Let’s say Android O-source code has two directories A and B. Each of the directories contain top level Android.bp inside them. I would like soong to conditionally compile sources in directory A or B depending up on the value of an environment variable $ENV_VARIABLE.
ENV_VARIABLE is not specified (null) or contains a string value.
If ENV_VARIABLE is not null, Android.bp file in A should be compiled, otherwise Android.bp file in B should be compiled.
Currently, both the Android.bp files in A and B are compiled with soong. So, we need soong to compile Android.bp file in A or B based on the value of $ENV_VARIABLE.
I tried the below approach :
1. Added My_struct struct { Srcs []string } to varaibleProperties in build/soong/variable.go
+ My_struct struct{
+ Srcs[]string
+
}
2.+
My_struct *string `json:",omitempty to productVariables in build/soong/variable.go
3.Passed ENV_VARIABLE to My_struct in
build/make/core/soong_config.mk
+ echo ' "My_struct": "$(ENV_VARIABLE)",'
I would like to change Android.bp in directory A in the following way so that whenever My_struct has a valid string, soong should compile sources specified in the subdirs field.
+ product_variables: {
+ my_struct: {
+ subdirs =[“../B”],
+ },
+ },
}
But subdirs is not a property in .bp module. Can you please provide help on how to achieve this?
Thank You.

compile the same code, which makes it much harder to determine if a
change is going to break a build. We try to move as many of these
decisions to runtime as possible. For example, you can compile the
two subdirectories as separate shared libraries, and then choose which
one to install and load at runtime.
For cases where you absolutely must handle it at compile time, you can
see examples at
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/art.git/+/master/build/art.go
or https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/llvm.git/+/master/soong/llvm.go.
You will need to define your own module type that extends cc_library
or cc_binary, add a property struct to it that contains your subdirs
property, then in a load hook read the environment variable and copy
the values out of your property struct into the Srcs property.
