How do I build Android project

[braid_pitt]

I am trying to build android source code (specifically the
applications such as the alarm clock, calendar) and when I do this
using eclipse, there are 1000+ errrors being thrown possibly due to
mismatch of class path and other environmental settings.
Can somebody please help in terms of any said steps to follow for
building the application projects under android using eclipse?
This is important since I need to debug certain issues and due to
failure of compiling I am unable to debug via Eclipse as debug
requires an open project compiled successfully to be present.

FYI- I have installed the DDMS plugin and ADT successfully and am able
to communicate with the target successfully using eclipse, but
unfortunately not able to debug due to the above said reasons.

Any help is appreciated.

You can't quite build under eclipse. You can set up eclipse to write
the code and debug it, but building it must use the Android build
system.

Thanks JBQ. I already have android source code built using the Android build system.However, I am unable to debug any application ( already built as part of the android source code) since Eclipse is asking for an open project before debug and complains that the project is not built. Can you provide me some pointers on this?

Sorry, I have no experience with this. I'm sure someone else on the
list must have done that at some point.

I think you have to modify .classpath.

I just removed vpn and keystore entries from .classpath. Then errors
ware gone.

Sorry, I just *added* vpn and keystore stuff.

[Chad Fawcett]

Here is the .classpath that I used to get rid of dependency errors (as stated, just adding the vpn and keystore stuff, plus removing IM provider): https://review.source.android.com/12133

If you wanted to pull it in, from platform root:

cd development

git pull git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/development refs/changes/33/12133/2

cd ..

and then copy the new .classpath from development/ide/eclipse into your platform root per the using-eclipse instructions.

Have you been able to get it working ?
Maybe some of my blog posts are helpful

Hi,

I tried "git pull git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/developmentrefs/changes/33/12133/2"
and that gives an error. From the link https://review.source.android.com/#change,12133
there is a space between 'development' and 'refs' but that doesn't
work as well.

I tried to add keystore stuffs and remove ImProvider. That reduces
some errors (still remain 24 errors about not resolved class R).
However, when I open a file, e.g Calculator.java, some more errors
appear about "can not resolved to a type".

I don't really know how to fix that. Does anyone have experience about
that?

Greetings,

Nga

It looks like JBQ merged in the change in, so if you do a repo sync you should get the update without the git pull now (though you'll still need to copy it to your platform root, per the eclipse tips page).
