ABIs [armeabi, mips] are not supported for platform android NDK

Question

I am using JNI code in my project with abiFilters like below

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.intel.hellojni"
        minSdkVersion 15
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
        externalNativeBuild {
            cmake {
                cppFlags ""
            }
        }
        ndk {
            abiFilters "armeabi", "armeabi-v7a", "x86", "mips"
        }
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    externalNativeBuild {
        cmake {
            path "CMakeLists.txt"
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.3'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
}

it's working fine in one system but after moving a code to other system,it show below error for import,i have checked with new created project it shoes the same error

ABIs [armeabi, mips] are not supported for platform. Supported ABIs are [armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a, x86, x86_64].

if I remove armeabi and mips like below then it's working

ndk {
       abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
}

I have already installed CMake and NDK for android studio.

Answer 1

remove 'armebi' from abiFilters in your build.gradle file. armebi is no longer supported by the NDK. A correct list could be:

ndk {
  abiFilters 'armeabi-v7a', 'arm64-v8a', 'x86', 'x86_64'
}

Answer 2

As the message says, those ABIs are no longer supported by the NDK. This is mentioned in the NDK r17 changelog:

Support for ARMv5 (armeabi), MIPS, and MIPS64 has been removed. Attempting to build any of these ABIs will result in an error.

As others have said, there are not a significant number of devices out there that benefit from targeting any of these ABIs.
