How to import the Android ROM source code into Android Studio?

I have downloaded one Android ROM source code, it has many file and folder, which takes a lot disk space (about 40GB). If I want to use android studio to edit some file, for example, /$ROM/frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/DataSource.cpp

Because, while editing the .cpp file, I want the android studio IDE can point out where the wrong code is, and provide the function library. Just like editing normal android project java file.

How to import the ROM source code into Android Studio??

Solution

  • Here are Google docs to describe how you do it :

    https://developer.android.com/studio/projects/add-native-code.html

    Go for "Create a New Project with C/C++ Support" step directly if you do not like to have a native build in it.
