如何将第三方库添加到Android AOSP构建中？

Question

I am trying to add the Jackson JSON library to my AOSP project. I am able to compile my project and flash it to a phone, but I get a runtime error:

E/JavaBinder( 1689): java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/core/JsonFactory;
...
E/JavaBinder( 1689): Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonFactory" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/system/framework/guice.jar", zip file "/system/framework/beanshell.jar", zip file "/system/framework/services.jar", zip file "/system/framework/ethernet-service.jar", zip file "/system/framework/wifi-service.jar"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/vendor/lib, /system/lib]]

I have tried including Jackson both from source, and jar. Here are my Android.mk files for each:

---

SOURCE Android.mk

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $(call all-java-files-under,.)
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional
LOCAL_MODULE:= com.fasterxml.jackson.core
include $(BUILD_JAVA_LIBRARY)

# Copy XML to /system/etc/permissions/
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional
LOCAL_MODULE := com.fasterxml.jackson.core.xml
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := ETC
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_OUT_ETC)/permissions
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $(LOCAL_MODULE)
include $(BUILD_PREBUILT)

SOURCE com.fasterxml.jackson.core.xml (referenced above)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<permissions>
    <library name="com.fasterxml.jackson.core.xml"
        file="/system/framework/com.fasterxml.jackson.jar" />
</permissions>

---

JAR Android.mk

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := jackson
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := jackson-core-2.5.0.jar
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := JAVA_LIBRARIES
LOCAL_MODULE_SUFFIX := $(COMMON_JAVA_PACKAGE_SUFFIX)
include $(BUILD_PREBUILT)

---

I have also added a jackson entry for in LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES := section of the Android.mk file where I want to use Jackson ( frameworks/base/services ). No matter what I've tried, I get a ClassNotFoundException .

What am I missing? Have I done anything unnecessary?

To include a 3rd party library from source :

1. copy the library's source into a directory under $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/external/ (ex: $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/external/jackson )

2. Create an Android.mk file, and place it in the library's folder (ex: $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/external/jackson/Android.mk

   Contents of Android.mk :

    # required (setup the build environment) LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir) include $(CLEAR_VARS) # optional step to automate some pre-compilation steps for this library # run `mvn generate-sources` before we compile $(info $(shell (mvn generate-sources -f $(LOCAL_PATH)/pom.xml))) # required (the name of the library we are building) LOCAL_MODULE := jackson # required (paths to all directories that include source code) # note the difference between the := (first line) and += (every other line) LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $(call all-java-files-under, src/main) LOCAL_SRC_FILES += $(call all-java-files-under, target/generated-sources) # required (tell the build system what kind of thing we are building) include $(BUILD_JAVA_LIBRARY) 

3. Add the library to the PRODUCT_BOOT_JARS section of your mk file. Which file you edit depends on what you are building (ex: build/target/product/core_minimal.mk )

   Original

    PRODUCT_BOOT_JARS := \\ okhttp \\ core-junit \\ bouncycastle \\ ext \\ gson 

   Modified

    PRODUCT_BOOT_JARS := \\ okhttp \\ core-junit \\ bouncycastle \\ ext \\ gson \\ jackson 

4. For each submodule of your AOSP project (ex: frameworks/base ), that you want to have access to the library , find the makefile (ex: $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/frameworks/base/Android.mk and add an entry for your library to the LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES line. Example:

   Original

    LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES := guice gson 

   Modified

    LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES := guice gson jackson 

5. Compile your project.
