Android SDK source code

I need to look at the .java files of the android sdk. I have developed applications before but I never needed to look at them so it wasn't a problem then. I saw there is a jar file android.jar that contains all the class files structured but actual sources are not there. git gives various problems to me because I am behind a weird proxy so http://source.android.com/source/using-eclipse.html hasn't been very helpful. What should I do?

EDIT: I'm talking about the java files, just to clarify. And in case you are okay with browsing the code online, Where can I find Android source code online? http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#uX1GffpyOZk/core/java/android/

You can find all Android API source code via the link https://dl.google.com/android/repository/repository2-2.xml

Search for (example) Sources for Android 32 and get the corresponding url value for the right filename. Now you can download it from https://dl.google.com/android/repository/sources-32_r01.zip

The links in the other 2 answers, http://hala01.com/ and http://grepcode.com/project/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android are no longer working.

You can download and view android SDK source code from this site. As of today in October 2021, source code of up to API level 31 is available.

Since such websites may become unavailable in the future, you may want to download local copies for safe keeping.

Just open the Android SDK Manager and select the Sources for Android SDK of the API level you are trying to support and click Install packages:

(In this case I selected those for SDK v4.3 API-18 and SDK v4.2.2 API-17 but I already have them installed) Eclipse Android SDK Manager

If for some reason you SDK manager button doesn't show up on the Eclipse toolbar, follow this recommendations.

To link the source code to Eclipse just follow this instructions; Android Sources are usually under [ANDROID_SDK_FOLDER]/sdk/sources/android-[API_LEVEL]

You can download the ICS sources via the adk manager to your local machine and then attach them to your project in you IDE. See e.g. the blog of Lars Vogel
