  • thanks, you are right, can you explain the differences between them? I downloaded the source code from Android SDK Manager. Commented Jun 26, 2015 at 5:18
  • I see the instruction from: androidxref.com/5.1.0_r1/xref/frameworks/base/tools/layoutlib, it says "Layoutlib is a custom version of the android View framework designed to run inside Eclipse.The goal of the library is to provide layout rendering in Eclipse that are very very close to their rendering on devices." then, the source code I downloaded from SDK manager is just the 'source for Android SDK' rather than the Android framework source code? Am I right? Thanks. Commented Jun 26, 2015 at 5:20
