如何在 android.bp 文件中为 srcs:[] 添加相对路径

Question

I m using androidmk tool to convert Android.mk files to Android.bp at many places we have Android.mk chanining so it produces relative path for srcs:[], but its not working with Android.bp build. Throwing error : Path is outside directory: ../../XX.cpp

srcs:[ "example1.cpp" "../../example2.cpp" --- error for this file ]

Path is outside directory:"../../example2.cpp"

Answer 1

This is not allowed in Soong . You have to move your Android.bp to a common parent folder so that it looks like this.

srcs: ["a/b/example1.cpp", "example2.cpp"]

Answer 2

We don't allow references outside of the current directory and its subdirectories in Soong

There are two ways to overcome to resolve the above issue.

• defining filegroup modules that can be used in the src[s] fields via ":myfilegroup".

Define the below code in parent or root dir:

    filegroup {
    name: "commaonfile",
    srcs: ["common/**/*.cpp"],
}

And use the filegroup in inner dirs where wants to use like below code:

cc_binary {
name: "abc"
srcs: [
       "src/a/b/abc.cpp"
       ":commaonfile"
      ],
}

• shift all the Android.bp to parent dir and make it work.
