Build / Run Questions

[piec]

Hi,

Thanks for making Binder Explorer.
I'd like to run Binder Explorer on an x86_64 userdebug emulator build to try out but I have a few questions:

Run 'mm' to insert the application on the device

Should there be an Android.mk / Android.bp in the repo then?

You can then run the application from within the ADB shell:
$ OsysBE

I ran the build process but I'm not seeing an OsysBE executable, I guess it should be a wrapper script in order to run the nodejs app?

Cheers,
Pierre

There are some shortcomings in the Git repository! I'm not very proud of myself. I'm going to fix it and come back to you.

We're running into limitations with Android Pie right now. On what version of Android are you trying to run Binder Explorer? On Tue, Apr 2, 2019 at 11:10 AM François-Denis Gonthier < [email protected]> wrote:

Thanks
I'm using Android Pie so far but it's not too important for me

Ok so there were a few things missing in the repo. The Android.mk file, the OsysBE script and the "images" directory were missing, I've added them. I've also added a line in the Android.mk that will copy .node binary node modules to /system/lib64. This is required to use private APIs within the platform.

The repository is now in a state where I can be more useful if you've got problems running BE.

Thanks! I'm trying that as soon as I get back on this subject
