Building Chromium for Snapdragon - no "swe_browser_apk" target

I've followed build instructions for Chromium for Snapdragon m54 stable build. I've added google play libs manually (as library_project is now missing in SDK). On

ninja -C out/Default swe_browser_apk

i'm getting error that "swe_browser_apk" target is not found.

gn ls out/Default

shows that there are lots of other targets including chrome_public_apk. Why is swe_browser_apk missing? Any newer instructions since that times?

Update 1: i was unable to find "swe_browser_apk" in .gn files so is build doc outdated/incorrect?

Solution

  • It's much more easier to checkout m58 (instead of m54) branch and modify .gclient file to use git://codeaurora.org/quic/chrome4sdp/chromium/src.git@refs/remotes/origin/m58. Just like it's written in the build instructions you will get SWE_Browser.apk in out/Default/apks (swe_browser_apk target exists).
