How to Build Camera app Separately from AOSP?

Question

I need to build an Android app to capture panorama images similar to how Photo Sphere feature of Android 4.2+ Camera app.

I tried to look into the Android Open Source Project specifically at PanoramaModule, and downloaded the entire source of the Camera app, but failed to build it as an Android project in Eclipse because of missing references. For instance...

• com.android.gallery3d
• @layout/gl_root_group

Am I missing something here?

Answer 1

You can go to the root of the source code and use "make Camera" command to build that app.
