Blueprint Syntax Skill

Fixes parsing and syntax errors in Android Blueprint (Android.bp) files.

Detection Patterns

• Android.bp:X:Y: parse error
• expected ',' before ']'
• unexpected '}'
• unrecognized property

Strategy

1. Locate Error: Find the exact line and column in Android.bp.
2. Identify Issue: Parse the syntax error description.
3. Fix Syntax: Apply the appropriate correction.

Instructions

Step 1: Go to Error Location

From: Android.bp:42:15: parse error: expected ',' before ']' Open Android.bp at line 42.

Step 2: Common Fixes

Missing comma:

Copy// Before (error)
srcs: [
    "file1.cpp"
    "file2.cpp"
]
// After
srcs: [
    "file1.cpp",
    "file2.cpp",
]

Trailing comma issue:

Copy// Before (error in some cases)
deps: [
    "libfoo",
]  // Trailing comma is OK in Android.bp

Missing colon:

Copy// Before
name "mylib"
// After
name: "mylib",

Unclosed bracket:

Copy// Before
srcs: [
    "main.cpp",
// Missing ]
// After
srcs: [
    "main.cpp",
],

Step 3: Validate

Run m blueprint_tools or check with Android build.
