1. Download and install ndk

   You can install Ndk from https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/index.html At the time of writing ndk-r10e was the latest version and i was on linux 64 bits so i downloaded this - android-ndk-r10e-linux-x86_64.bin

2 after downloading you need to install it

change the permissions

chmod a+x android-ndk-r10e-linux-x86_64.bin

execute

./android-ndk-r10e-linux-x86_64.bin

3 add it to path on linux

export PATH=$PATH:/home/android-ndk-r10e

4. To run a sample application use hello-jni under samples

5.goto the project location from terminal and ndk-build

ndk-build 

6. Run the application in emulator to see results
