Can we use the ANT script for Android NDK builds ? If Yes how? And if no, then why Not ?
I don't have any idea about it
Call ndk-build
from your -pre-build
target, like this:
<target name="-pre-build"> <exec executable="${ndk.dir}/ndk-build" failonerror="true"/> </target> <target name="clean" depends="android_rules.clean"> <exec executable="${ndk.dir}/ndk-build" failonerror="true"> <arg value="clean"/> </exec> </target>
Then you can set ndk.dir
to point at the NDK directory from your local.properties
file, or set it on the command line. I do this:
ant -Dsdk.dir=/home/dg/apps/android-sdk-linux_x86-r11/ -Dndk.dir=/home/dg/apps/android-ndk-r6b release
Now running ant will build your native code automatically. Plus, running 'ant clean' will clean your native code.
Updated: Added failonerror="true"
to the <exec>
tasks --- this causes ant to abort if the make fails. Without it it'll just go right ahead and generate an APK with an invalid binary in it. Not good!
