Android 5.0 build errors with Java version issue

My current java version running on my Ubuntu 14.04 is

java -version

java version "1.7.0_72"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_72-b14)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.72-b04, mixed mode)


I've typed the command to change the java version

sudo update-alternatives --config java

There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).



  Selection    Path                                            Priority   Status

  ------------------------------------------------------------

  0            /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java   1071      auto mode

* 1            /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java   1071      manual mode

  2            /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java          1         manual mode



Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 1

test@test-ZX-530:/media/test/SSD/N7$ sudo update-alternatives --config javac

There are 2 choices for the alternative javac (providing /usr/bin/javac).

After configuring this, the java -version does not change.

When I tried to build Android 5.0, the error occured and shown the following error message:

You asked for an OpenJDK 7 build but your version is

java version "1.7.0_72" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_72-b14) Java     HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.72-b04, mixed mode).

************************************************************

build/core/main.mk:191: *** stop. Stop.



#### make failed to build some targets  ####


Any idea to this? Thanks!

==================================================================================

I have found out the question to this issue.

The java version is Openjdk when I run

. build/envsetup.sh


However, when I run

lunch aosp_flo-userdebug


The java version switch back to Java SE.

Please let me know if you may have any idea

Thanks

Hi,

lunch aosp_flo-userdebug


I thihk this command checks my configuration and switches back to Java SE jdk version.

After running this command and exporting my OpenJDK path again make the build work.

Building Kitkat needs Sun/Oracle JDK 6 version, and building Lollipop needs OpenJDK 7. Currently, I have both projects on my Ubuntu. I use a script to switch the JDK version, and it works.

Put the jdk_switch.sh in my ~ directory and run the following commands to switch jdk version:

$ . ./jdk_switch.sh jdk7
$ . ./jdk_switch.sh jdk6

The path of JDK are:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-oracle/
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/

The content of jdk_switch.sh:

#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
    jdk6)
 export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-oracle/
 ;;
    jdk7)
 export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/
 ;;
    *)
 export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/
 ;;
esac

export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin:$PATH
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib

java -version

OpenJDK 7 version is :

java -version
java version "1.7.0_65"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.3) (7u71-2.5.3-0ubuntu0.12.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)

In your case, exporting your PATH and CLASSPATH might helpful. Or just use a simple bash script. I hope this might help you.
