<html><head></head><body>Most Android build.xml scripts look for a default build.xml on the system (a roughly 1300-line file). On my system, there is no such file, and as I can't find one that matches the exact version of what I've got (the Debian Android tools) I'm trying Gradle instead.<br>

How does one generate gradlew without a working Gradle? I'm getting version mismatch errors all over the place no matter what I try.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On August 4, 2019 8:12:42 AM MDT, "殷啟聰 | Kai-Chung Yan" <seamlik@debian.org> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<pre class="k9mail">Whether it's Ant or Gradle, it just runs the tools provided by the SDK, so yes. But you need to know what tools are run in what order.<br /><br />Fluff Rabbit via Android-tools-devel 於 2019/8/4 下午9:10 寫道:<br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #729fcf; padding-left: 1ex;"> Oh boy. This seems like one of the hardest things to package, so getting new contributors would be its own challenge. I'm assuming the packaging environment would be Debian testing or unstable and the packager would need familiarity with how Google packages things.<br /> <br /> Ant used to be the way to build APKs, back when I was still using the official Android SDK and Java. I don't really "get" Gradle and I think it's shitty how a build system needs to update itself just to do its job. I would actually prefer working with Ant if not for incompatibility with other people's apps.<br /> <br /> So you're saying that even though it's not documented, Debian's Android SDK should build apps no problem with the Ant it comes with?<br /> <br /></blockquote><br /></pre></blockquote></div></body></html>
