Obtain the Software Needed to Build Android Terminal Emulator
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To keep from typing "Android Terminal Emulator" over and over again, this
|
|
document will use the abbreviation "ATE" to stand for "Android Terminal
|
|
Emulator".
|
|
|
|
ATE is built using the Android SDK r18 or newer and the Android NDK r8 or
|
|
newer. You can download them from:
|
|
|
|
http://developer.android.com/sdk
|
|
|
|
If you want to build, edit, or debug with Eclipse you will also need to
|
|
install Eclipse 3.4 or newer, Java version, available from:
|
|
|
|
http://eclipse.org
|
|
|
|
After you install the SDK and the NDK, please build some of the samples that
|
|
come with the SDK and NDK in order to get a feel for using the SDK and the NDK.
|
|
|
|
Building ATE
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
You can build ATE two ways
|
|
|
|
1) Using the "ant" command line tool
|
|
2) Using the Eclipse IDE
|
|
|
|
The "ant" way is convenient for automated builds. The Eclipse way is convenient
|
|
for debugging.
|
|
|
|
Building ATE using ant
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
The first time you build using Ant you must run a one-time setup script
|
|
to set up the local.properties files for all the ant projects:
|
|
|
|
tools/update.sh
|
|
|
|
After that, you can build ATE by:
|
|
|
|
tools/build-debug
|
|
|
|
Then you can run ATE on your device or emulator by:
|
|
|
|
tools/pushAndRun
|
|
|
|
Building ATE with Eclipse
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
There are three steps to building ATE with Eclipse:
|
|
|
|
1) Build the project from the command line using "ant"
|
|
2) Create the Eclipse Project for the Application
|
|
3) Build the Java apk.
|
|
|
|
Build the project from the command line using "ant":
|
|
|
|
You need to build the project from the commmand line in order to generate the
|
|
shared libraries and Java JAR files used by Android Terminal Emulator.
|
|
|
|
Use the instructions in "Building ATE with ant", above.
|
|
|
|
Create the Eclipse projects:
|
|
|
|
Start Eclipse
|
|
|
|
From the menu choose File : New Project
|
|
Choose Android:Android Project as a project type
|
|
Press Next
|
|
Set Project Name: jackpal_androidterm_emulatorview
|
|
Choose "Create project from existing source"
|
|
Browse to the location of the libraries/emulatorview directory.
|
|
Press Finish
|
|
|
|
From the menu choose File : New Project
|
|
Choose Android:Android Project as a project type
|
|
Press Next
|
|
Set Project Name: AndroidTerm
|
|
Choose "Create project from existing source"
|
|
Browse to the location of the AndroidTerm source directory.
|
|
Press Finish
|
|
|
|
Edit the Eclipse project properties to include the emulatorview library:
|
|
|
|
1) Right-click on the "Term" project in the "Package Explorer" window.
|
|
2) Choose "Properties" from the drop-down menu.
|
|
3) Navigate to "Project References"
|
|
4) Check the check box "jackpal_androidterm_emulatorview"
|
|
5) Click OK
|
|
|
|
Build the Java apk:
|
|
|
|
This should happen automatically once you've created the Eclipse project.
|
|
|
|
Command Line Build Instructions
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can build Android Terminal Emulator from the command line, instead of from
|
|
Eclipse. This is handy because it can be scripted.
|
|
|
|
1) Install the "ant" build system.
|
|
2) cd <the-android-terminal-emulator-directory>
|
|
3) ant clean
|
|
4) ant debug
|
|
5) Connect a device to your machine, or start the emulator
|
|
6) adb install -r bin/Term.apk
|
|
7) adb shell am start -n jackpal.androidterm/jackpal.androidterm.Term
