aidl是android中的binder通信的重要的一个内容。它把*.aidl文件转换成java或者cpp文件，然后生成的java或者cpp文件参与编译，可以实现ibiner机制。

这里只介绍下使用aidl转换aidl文件到java文件的方法。

aidl可执行文件在android源码中的位置：

prebuilts/sdk/tools/{platform}/bin/aidl
platform可以是linux/darwin/windows/
比如，prebuilts/sdk/tools/linux/bin/aidl

aidl的使用方法：

john@john-ThinkPad-Edge-E435:~/workspace/android/android-source-code$ ./prebuilts/sdk/tools/linux/bin/aidl
INPUT required
usage: aidl OPTIONS INPUT [OUTPUT]
       aidl --preprocess OUTPUT INPUT...

OPTIONS:
   -I    search path for import statements.
   -d   generate dependency file.
   -a         generate dependency file next to the output file with the name based on the input file.
   -ninja     generate dependency file in a format ninja understands.
   -p   file created by --preprocess to import.
   -o base output folder for generated files.
   -b         fail when trying to compile a parcelable.

INPUT:
   An aidl interface file.

OUTPUT:
   The generated interface files.
   If omitted and the -o option is not used, the input filename is used, with the .aidl extension changed to a .java extension.
   If the -o option is used, the generated files will be placed in the base output folder, under their package folder

用ILocationManager.aidl举例，在android源码根目录，命令如下：

./prebuilts/sdk/tools/linux/bin/aidl \
-Iframeworks/base/core/java/ \
-Iframeworks/base/location/java/ \
-Iframeworks/base/core/java/ \
-Iframeworks/base/location/java/ \
-oaidl-out \
frameworks/base/location/java/android/location/ILocationManager.aidl

生成的文件为：

john@john-ThinkPad-Edge-E435:~/workspace/android/android-source-code/aidl-out$ tree
.
└── android
    └── location
        └── ILocationManager.java

aidl在android源码中是有源码的，在 system/tools/aidl/，在使用aidl可执行文件遇到问题了或者对aidl源码感兴趣，可以读下。
