How to import individual projects from Android Source Code

Question

As far as I understand, all the built-in standard apps like (email, music, calendar etc) are built using the same API. So I should be able to import a project like mail / music etc without checking out the full source repository of android. I'v been trying that but I am getting compilation problems like class resolve failure.

Am I doing it wrong? Do I have to get the full android source project to import a project like Mail ?

Hi,

These apps are open source (mail, music and calendar). But they depend on internal classes and resources and can't be compiled with the SDK
