Package APK, so, and other files to system. IMG.

The packaging mentioned in this Article refers to packaging the files you need into system. IMG after compiling with make-J8 in aosp.
Here are two more cases. The first one is that APK and so are provided by a third party and have been compiled, as long as they are packaged into system. IMG; the second type is the source code of APK and so, which must be compiled in aosp.

In the first case, you can modify product_copy_files in device. mk. Here, you can use device/Ti/panda in android4.0 to modify it.

1. add your own folder in device/Ti/panda and copy the files to be packaged to the folder:

root@xxx:/mnt/ics-android/ics-src/device/ti/panda# ls my/*my/app:my.apkmy/bin:my.shmy/fonts:my/lib:libmy.so

Here, a folder my is added under device/Ti/panda, and app, bin, fonts, and Lib are added under my, corresponds to the directory under out/target/product/panda/system, in device. the last increase of MK:

PRODUCT_COPY_FILES += \device/ti/panda/my/app/my.apk:system/app/my.apk \device/ti/panda/my/bin/my.sh:system/bin/my.sh \device/ti/panda/my/lib/libmy.so:system/lib/libmy.so

In the second case, you also need to modify device. mk to add the file to be packaged to the variable product_packages:

PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \    libmy \    my

Note that the name must be the same as the name of the generated file in Android. mk of the module. For example
Local_module: = libmy
Or
Local_package_name: = My

In addition, the value of local_module_tags in Android. mk of the module must be optional.
Local_module_tags: = optional

There are multiple specified packaging files in the aosp build directory. For details, refer:
