How to include com.android.internal.R into android.jar

[James Wang]

We add some resources into framework-res.apk. We can refer them by
@*android:type/name in layout.xml but get stuck with writing code
since com.android.internal.R is not included in android.jar.

We wonder how to include it into android.jar. Which part make files
should we edit?

You really don't want to do that.  If you have an .apk that is using private resources, you really really want to build it with the platform build system, because those resource IDs can change each time you modify and rebuild the platform.  If you build them separately, I can guarantee you will run in to obscure bugs where the .apk binary you are using is not compatible with the platform build it is running on.

I know it but I just wonder how.
Any suggestion will be appreciated!
