Adding referenced jars to android build.xml

问题:

I have an android eclipse project and have generated the corresponding build.xml ant file by doing:

android update test-project -p . -m ..\main_project

This compiles fine. However, in eclipse I have then added three referenced external jars (easymock, objenesis and cglib). In eclipse everything builds fine but then when I run the above command again it doesn't add these jars to the classpath.

So my question is how to tell the build.xml to include these jars?

I have done some research first and some people suggested changing the rules files in the sdk itself but this is something I want to avoid as then everyone in my team would need to do this and that's not practical.

Thanks Stephen

For build.xml you can set property "external.libs.dir" in one of your properties file( like build.properties), by default it points to libs/ folder of your project - simply put there all your jars

external.libs.dir=<your_custom_path>/lib

回答2:

add jar.libs.dir=your_path_here/lib in ant.properties for SDK >=8

You should ideally use libs/ not lib, to remain consistent with Eclipse.
