Title: Integrating projects using their own build system into the Android build system

Abstract: Android uses its own build system - basically a set of "Android.mk" Makefiles that rely on variables and functions defined in Makefiles in the Android tree. While it is easy to write an Android.mk file for a new project, sometimes it is preferable to reuse an existing build system for cross-platform code you want to integrate into an Android build. This session will explain how to do this, with examples of how we integrated ffmpeg and busybox into Linaro's Android builds.

Biography: Bernhard "Bero" Rosenkränzer is an engineer on Linaro's Android Platform team, and a contributor to Open Source projects ranging from the Linux kernel to the KDE desktop.

Botao will do slides relating to Busybox and maybe Speex integration and Bero will do something TBD.
