At this time, I don't believe that the Firefox for Android team will have the QA time to verify that switching the product from moz.build to Gradle does not have unforeseen impacts in the wild. In response, I'm driving the two build systems to be bit-for-bit identical, thereby avoiding the need for a costly QA process to quantify unknowns and estimate risks. The major part of making the two APK outputs bit-for-bit identical is to make org.mozilla.gecko.R identical in the two builds. It turns out this isn't as hard as one might think. The Gradle build does two things: 1) it copies all the relevant resources into a single merged directory; 2) it merges and orders all of the values*/*xml files. To copy this, we need to do some work before running aapt. Luckily, moz.build has grown features that make this tractable. This ticket tracks: 0) invoking a wrapper around aapt using moz.build's GENERATED_FILES mechanism; 1) making the wrapper do 1) above; 2) making the wrapper do 2) above; 3) verifying the outputs agree. Bug 1355616 lays the groundwork for 1) here, making the merging simpler. It turns out that 2) isn't that complicated.
mshal: flagging you for the little build system tweak since originally I wrote this to use GENERATED_FILES and you implemented the multi-output support for that. See the commit comment explaining why GENERATED_FILES can't be used here :( I've structured this to support testing during development; if you could just review the combined Makefile.in changes and whatever Python you care to review that would be great. I'll work with sebastian on the Android details while he's here in YVR. Thanks!

I'd like to re-review the first part, but it should be quick.

I think my comments in #c13 still need to be addressed, though I can't tell if mozreview is just being wonky (mozreview still shows one open issue and the r? cleared, and the diff between version 1 and version 2 of the patch just seems to show unrelated differences from bug 1365089).

Right now the aapt command does not re-execute if aapt_package.py changes. I did this -- it's in the second patch now. > There are a few unused imports here (OrderedDict, Preprocessor, ensureParentDir) Ran it through flake8/pyflakes a few times; ignored only some indentation warnings. I see a trailing space that I'll purge eventually. > How come you always pass in -m here? Should it depend on args.m? It's a flag to `aapt` that we always want: ``` -m make package directories under location specified by -J ```
(In reply to Michael Shal [:mshal] from comment #20) > I think my comments in #c13 still need to be addressed, though I can't tell > if mozreview is just being wonky (mozreview still shows one open issue and > the r? cleared, and the diff between version 1 and version 2 of the patch > just seems to show unrelated differences from bug 1365089). mshal -- sorry, I replied to your comments but forgot to hit publish. I think I addressed your concerns, sorry if I didn't. I'll set the r? flags again, 'cuz I do think it's updated correctly.

Clearing NI, since I'm not going to get to this anytime soon. (And we might take a different route to --with-gradle anyway.)
