Any help is appreciated !

Answer 1

I see you're using NDK r10, but your app is asking for the gcc 4.4.3 toolchain that is not available since at least r9.

You can check for NDK_TOOLCHAIN_VERSION variable inside a Application.mk file, and remove it so it uses the default toolchain that is available (4.6).

Another issue is that ndk-build.cmd is called. But ndk-build.cmd is to be used on Windows, not on Mac or Linux where ndk-build should be used instead.

You can check if a "build command" is manually set to it inside the eclipse C/C++ properties of your project.
