Building System之编译前的准备工作

Android系统编译前的准备工作，我个人认为由如下三个步骤完成。接下来，我就逐一分析每一步骤都干了什么事情。

1、安装jdk、设置环境变量JAVA_HOME。

2、source build/envsetup.sh

3、lunch <product_name>-<build_variant>

博文中出现的get_abs_build_var() 和 get_build_var()请移步到 这里

1、设置JAVA_HMOE环境变量

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64

2、source build/envsetup.sh

该shell脚本实现了许多有用的shell函数，可通过执行hmm命令查看（hmm是envsetup.sh实现的第一个shell函数）。

下面是hmm命令显示的一部分：

Invoke ". build/envsetup.sh" from your shell to add the following functions to your environment:
- lunch:   lunch <product_name>-<build_variant>
- tapas:   tapas [<App1> <App2> ...] [arm|x86|mips|armv5|arm64|x86_64|mips64] [eng|userdebug|user]
- croot:   Changes directory to the top of the tree.
- m:       Makes from the top of the tree.
- mm:      Builds all of the modules in the current directory, but not their dependencies.
- mmm:     Builds all of the modules in the supplied directories, but not their dependencies.
           To limit the modules being built use the syntax: mmm dir/:target1,target2.
- mma:     Builds all of the modules in the current directory, and their dependencies.
- mmma:    Builds all of the modules in the supplied directories, and their dependencies.
- cgrep:   Greps on all local C/C++ files.
- ggrep:   Greps on all local Gradle files.
- jgrep:   Greps on all local Java files.
- resgrep: Greps on all local res/*.xml files.
- sgrep:   Greps on all local source files.
- godir:   Go to the directory containing a file.

除了上面实现的shell函数，envsetup.sh还把device和vendor目录下的所有vendorsetup.sh脚本包含进来了。最后，还调用shell函数addcompletions。

if [ "x$SHELL" != "x/bin/bash" ]; then
    case `ps -o command -p $$` in # $$属于Special Shell Variables,表示Process ID of shell
        *bash*)
            ;;
        *)
            echo "WARNING: Only bash is supported, use of other shell would lead to erroneous results"
            ;;
    esac
fi

# Execute the contents of any vendorsetup.sh files we can find.
for f in `test -d device && find -L device -maxdepth 4 -name 'vendorsetup.sh' 2> /dev/null` \
         `test -d vendor && find -L vendor -maxdepth 4 -name 'vendorsetup.sh' 2> /dev/null`
do
    echo "including $f"
    . $f # source找到的所有vendorsetup.sh文件
done
unset f

addcompletions # 检查bash版本，并source sdk/bash_completion目录下的所有[a-z]*.bash文件

$$ 请查看  Special Shell Variables

vendorsetup.sh的内容大多数是调用add_lunch_combo函数添加<product_name>-<build_variant>格式的lunch选项（也可以实现一些shell functions）。如：

add_lunch_combo aosp_flounder-userdebug

接下来，看一下add_lunch_combo函数的实现，File：build/envsetup.sh。

# Clear this variable.  It will be built up again when the vendorsetup.sh
# files are included at the end of this file.
unset LUNCH_MENU_CHOICES
function add_lunch_combo()
{
    local new_combo=$1
    local c
    for c in ${LUNCH_MENU_CHOICES[@]} ; do
        if [ "$new_combo" = "$c" ] ; then
            return
        fi
    done
    LUNCH_MENU_CHOICES=(${LUNCH_MENU_CHOICES[@]} $new_combo) # vendorsetup.sh中添加的combo选项都保存在数组LUNCH_MENU_CHOICES中
}

我们回到envsetup.sh脚本的最后一行，看一下addcompletio
