So, another day, and another error. While building SlimRoms 7 for the Note Edge, I ran into this error:
[CODE]
[ 0% 60/15886] Docs droiddoc: /home/a…rget/common/docs/apache-http-stubs-gen

[/CODE]
Hours of online surfing and scrounging, and trying different things led me to this Google issue:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=230820
That perfectly detailed the same problem I had, as well as providing a viable solution. So I implemented it by opening build_slim7/external/apache-http/Android.mk, which read (among other things) :
[CODE]
LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES := $(apache_http_java_libs)
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := JAVA_LIBRARIES
LOCAL_DROIDDOC_SOURCE_PATH := $(LOCAL_PATH)/src \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/android \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/../../frameworks/base/core/java/org/apache
[/CODE]
And exchanged it with this:
[CODE]
# WJH LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES := $(apache_http_java_libs)
LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES := $(apache_http_java_libs) okhttp bouncycastle framework
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := JAVA_LIBRARIES
LOCAL_DROIDDOC_SOURCE_PATH := $(LOCAL_PATH)/src \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/android \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/../../frameworks/base/core/java/org/apache
[/CODE]
And the problem went away! So, I thought I’d share in case any of my readers had a similar issue.
Linux – keep it simple.
