interface Aidl
Provides structured access to various AIDL tools such as the aidl compiler executable and aidl framework.
An instance of Aidl can be obtained via AndroidComponentsExtension.sdkComponents
As an example , let's take a Task that runs aidl compiler:
abstract class MyTask: DefaultTask() {
@get:Nested
abstract val aidlInput: Property<com.android.build.api.variant.Aidl>
@get:Inject
abstract val execOperations: ExecOperations
@TaskAction
fun execute() {
val aidlExecutable = aidlInput.get().executable.get().asFile
val aidlFramework = aidlInput.get().framework.get().asFile
// execute aidl binary with --help argument
execOperations.exec { spec ->
spec.commandLine(aidlExecutable)
spec.args("--help")
}
}
}
tasks.register<MyTask>("myTaskName") {
// get an instance of Aidl
this.aidlInput.set(androidComponents.sdkComponents.aidl)
}
