[AOSP][Android-8.0]surface.aidl moved from frameworks/base to frameworks/native

In AOSP (8.0) source I have found Surface.aidl moved from frameworks/base/core/java/android/view/Surface.aidl to frameworks/native/aidl/gui/android/view/Surface.aidl.

Actually the problem is that my application AIDL needs to use Surface class.

Below is the code snippet

import android.view.Surface;

interface sampleService {
    void setSurface(in Surface sampleSurface);
}

During build my application AIDL not able to resolve the Surface class. But if I add Surface.aidl class inside frameworks/base/core/java/android/view/ then my AIDL compiled successfully and running without error.

Now my question is that frameworks/base/Android.mk includes frameworks/native/aidl/gui/android/view/Surface.aidl but still my AIDL not able to import Surface class.

I am not able to figure out the problem. Please help me to find a way out.

Here is the Change Log

Solution

  • Just adding inside Android.mk and its working

    LOCAL_AIDL_INCLUDES += \
        frameworks/native/aidl/gui
