AAPT2 development

Building

All build targets can be found in Android.bp file. The main ones are make -j aapt2 and make -j aapt2_tests

make -j aapt2 will create an aapt2 executable in out/host/linux-x86/bin/aapt2 (on Linux). This aapt2 executable will then be used for all the apps in the platform.

Static version of the tool (without shared libraries) can be built with make -j static_sdk_tools dist DIST_DIR=$OUTPUT_DIRECTORY BUILD_HOST_static=1. Note, in addition to aapt2 this command will also output other statically built tools to the $OUTPUT_DIRECTORY.

Running tests

Build make -j aapt2_tests and then (on Linux) execute out/host/linux-x86/nativetest64/aapt2_tests/aapt2_tests
