The company I am with is developing a custom version of android which is to be used in our products. My team is developing applications which will be included in this custom android at the time of building the image. We used plastic scm to track changesets in our apps, but this information is not readily available on the android system. My goal is to have a text file included in the android build which will detail which of our apps are included and which plastic scm change sets they are at. I need to know where I would put this file in the AOSP before building the image in order to make it accessible from the device after flashing.
The output text file might look something like this: ChangeSet text File
The above image shows the AOSP file system, I would like to know in which of these directories and sub directories I can place a text file so it will be in the image when I make the distribution. I appreciate your help in locating the appropiate place to put this file to make it available on the device after building the image!
Thanks in advance!
Turns out this can be done by adding the following line to an android make file:
PRODUCT_COPY_FILES+=File_Path_on_System:Desired_Location_On_Device
