Cocos2d-x error while compiling LOCAL_SRC_FILES points to a missing file (and folder) Windows

Good evening.

I'm stuck trying to compile a HelloWorld using the cocos2d-x. I used the following commands:

  • cocos compile -p android --android-studio
  • cocos compile -p android --android-studio
  • cocos compile -p android

And I always had the same answer

Android NDK: ERROR:C:\Users\santi_000\Desktop\Android\cocos2d\HelloWorld\proj.android\../cocos2d/external/freetype2/prebuilt/android/Android.mk:cocos_freetype2_static: LOCAL_SRC_FILES points to the missing file
Android NDK: Check que C:/Users/santi_000/Desktop/Android/cocos2d/HelloWorld/proj.android/../cocos2d/external/freetype2/prebuilt/android/arm64-v8a/libfreetype.a exists or que its path is correct
make: Entering directory `C: /Users/santi_000/Desktop/Android/cocos2d/HelloWorld/proj.android '
C: / Users / santi_000 / AppData / Local / Android / sdk / ndk-bundle / build //../ build / core / prebuilt-library.mk: 45: *** Android NDK: Aborting. Stop.
make: Leaving directory `C: /Users/santi_000/Desktop/Android/cocos2d/HelloWorld/proj.android '
Error running command, return code: 2.

I found some pages here in StackOverFlow however none of them helped me. I'm using Windows. I realized I do not even have the arm64-V8A folder, what do I do? Where I can copy it, or how can I generate it?

Thank you.

The following worked for me

cocos compile --android-studio --target android-22 
    --ap android-22 --ndk-mode debug --ndk-toolchain arm-linux-androideabi-4.9 
    --platform android --app-abi armeabi --src C:\cocos2d-x\tests\cpp-tests

You will need to replace the --ndk-toolchain to the proper one that comes with your NDK installation. Check in the toolchains folder inside NDK_ROOT.

The most important one that actually got it working was --app-abi armeabi as that is what was the toolchain used.

[Edit] If you actually check cocos compile -h you will see that --app-abi mentions armeabi as the default. But that is not the case. It is picking up arm64 as the default.

First of all, the commands to compile the android project starts with cocos not coconuts.

cocos compile -p android --android-studio

or

cocos compile -p android

Now, for the above error, it seems, you haven't set NDK_HOME path in environment variable. You can set it manually or goto your cocos2d-x library folder from terminal and run

./setup.py

It will do the rest.
