Description: Binder generator of AIDL interfaces
aidl is a utility to generate Java and/or C++ code from Android's
Android Interface Definition Language (AIDL). AIDL is similar to
other IDLs you might have worked with. It allows you to define the
programming interface that both the client and service agree upon in
order to communicate with each other using interprocess communication
(IPC). On Android, one process cannot normally access the memory of
another process. So to talk, they need to decompose their objects
into primitives that the operating system can understand, and
marshall the objects across that boundary for you. The code to do
that marshalling is tedious to write, so Android handles it for you
with AIDL. This package provides two tools:
.
* "aidl" which generates Java bindings.
* "aidl-cpp" which generates C++ bindings.
.
