Is there a way to view the source code for Google Apps for Google?

I would like to see the source code for Google Services (specifically the GoogleMap class, from the V2 Maps API). I looked around and couldn't find anything.

I know the following:

  • The Java API for general Android development can be viewed on the web: http://grepcode.com/project/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/
  • Source code for Google Android apps (like Google Maps) is not available: http://source.android.com/faqs.html#how-can-i-get-access-to-the-google-apps-for-android- such-as-maps
  • The Eclipse Android Source Viewer plugin does not include the service source (as expected).

Google apps (Maps, Play Store, Gmail) are not open source and are not part of the Open Source Project (AOSP).

Note that there is a clear distinction in package names:



android. * android core components
com.android. * internal helper / implementation classes
com.google. * Google APIs and apps.
