I've downloaded the source for both google's default home screen and adw. I created a project in Eclipse and used those sources. However, I can not compile the code as there are quite a few errors. Does anyone know how to do this correctly? Do I need to add all of the google code to my project? (I asked the same question in another thread, link text )

Thanks

What is "adw"?

Does anyone know how to do this correctly?

The Home application in the Android open source project can only be built as part of a firmware image. It is not designed to be compiled just using the SDK. There is a sample Home application in your SDK, though, that builds with the SDK.

So, if your goal is to create a replacement home screen standalone app, use the Home app in your SDK as a starting point. If your goal is to create replacement firmware, download the entire firmware and build it that way.

ADW is a home launcher.
