How to compile AndroidScreencast? (several errors)

Question

Readme says

Android Screencast

HOW TO BUILD THE PROJET
***********************

Copy file "andrdoiscreencast.conf.example" to parent folder.
Rename it to "androidscreencast.conf".
Use your text editor to tune the configuration
Launch ant (with target dist or jnpl).

`

androidscreencast.example.conf says this

// The tag added to produced jar (androidscreencast-xxxx.jar)
version=DEV

// The location of your android sdk installation
android.sdk=/a/b/c/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r3

// JAR signing for jnlp startup
sign.keystore=../my_keystore
sign.storepass=xxx
sign.keypass=yyy
sign.alias=zzz

// for auto deployement to google code "downloads" section

I have installed ADT bundle which includes Eclpise and SDK to ~/ADT/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20131030 so what should I write in location of sdk? should it be adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20131030/sdk ?

Ive tried the above but it fails with

ant -v -f AndroidScreencast/build.xml

what does Launch ant (with target dist or jnpl) mean?

Answer 1

You cannot run this project at all because of the following error : -

java.io.FileNotFoundException: androidscreencast (The system cannot find the file specified)

Answer 2

Regarding the file "androidscreencast.conf" (which is a copy of "...example"):

Yes, enter path to your android-sdk-basedirectory (maybe /home/yourusername/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20131030/sdk/ in your case), build.xml expects a directory "tools/lib/" to be there:

android.sdk=/path/to/your/android/sdk/installation

If you don't know what to enter for...

sign.keystore=../my_keystore
sign.storepass=xxx
sign.keypass=yyy
sign.alias=zzz

...or run into trouble when it comes to signing/security, make yourself familiar with the "keytool" command - it's pretty simple once you get it. Basically you need to "keytool -genkeypair", or at least that's what I needed to do. then, edit the above lines from the config file to your needs. (You will know what to do after using "keytool".)

"Launch ant (with target dist or jnlp)" means: Enter either "ant dist" or "ant jnlp" or both at the same time "ant dist jnlp" to compile/build androidscreencast. "dist" will create a subdirectory ("dist/") with the jar-files, "jnlp" does the signing (see above) of the jar-files.

To run androidscreencast: Enter "dist/" directory, then type...

javaws androidscreencast-DEV.jnlp

(compare config file's first line: version=DEV)

Most likely you will run into trouble now.

First Bugfix: Remove the "codebase=...googlecode..." (line 3) from the androidscreencast-DEV.jnlp file. This will make the jnlp-file/javaws use local jar's instead of downloading from a outdated, non-existent URL.

Second Bugfix: When I enter "javaws" it's in fact "icedtea". Make sure you have IcedTea 1.6.2 or higher. (Some bugfix regarding null-pointer on application-initialization. Or something.)

Third Bugfix: You may have to copy "MyInjectEventApp.jar" and "icon.png" files from the src-tree to correct places. I think you have to copy "MyInjectEventApp.jar" to "bin/" and "icon.png" to "bin/net/srcz/android/screencast". (All inside the "AndroidScreencast/"-directory, not absolute linux filesystem paths!) ("grep" the source code folder for these two filenames to see the paths in the source code. Paths are relative to bin/net/srcz/android/screencast, which is the location of the "Main.class". A leading slash points to "bin/".) Then re-run "ant dist" to rebuild the jar-files to "dist/"-directory. (No need to re-run "ant jnlp" at this point.)

Fourth bugfix: ddmlib.jar not found / unknown symbol IDevice / ... - to fix these bugs edit "build.xml" to make use of the "ddmlib.jar" provided with the AndroidScreencast-archive, and not something else (nothing found, or newer version from the Android-SDK, which does not work with the sourcecode). You may have to download "ddmlib.jar" separately from where you downloaded AndroidScreencast. To make "build.xml" use your local "ddmlib.jar"-file now, change line 28...

<javac nowarn="true" srcdir="${src}" destdir="${build}" classpath="${ddmlib}"/>

...to:

<javac nowarn="true" srcdir="${src}" destdir="${build}" classpath="ddmlib.jar"/>

...and line 35...

<copy file="${sdk-ddmlib}" tofile="${dist}/${ddmlib}"/>

...to:

<copy file="ddmlib.jar" tofile="${dist}/${ddmlib}"/>

Phew, that should be it! I now can see my cellphone on my desktop! :-) (Next step will be rooting the phone (Android 2.3.5) to be able to control it with the mouse & keyboard.)
