How to use com.google.android.collect.list in Android Studio

Question

I want to use com.google.android.collect.List in my apk. But I don't understand which library I should include in the project.

I see that this class must be in frameworks/base/core. And I think that frameworks/base/core is included in framework.jar or framework2.jar.

But, framework.jar and framework2.jar from my phone contains odex files, and Android Studio can't use it.

Can anyone explain to me how to use classes from frameworks/base/core in apk?

In addition, how I understand android sdk don't include frameworks/base/core.

Answer 1

I've solved my problem. It's not easy way. I've download android source codes and compile it. Then i get jar file with compiled classes and set as library for my project. I know that it's crazy solution :) but i don't found another way.

I don't think you need to download the android source code. If you are looking for Lists, Maps then use Guava library.
