Is there a means to find the ndk revision number
ideally from the cmd line or from within android studio?
My use case is android studio has run an update, replaced ndk-bundle
with the latest version and I want to be able to find out what revision no. that is. i.e. r10d
, r11a
etc.
UPDATE
~/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/CHANGELOG.md looks like this - I can't see an explicit reference to the revision number, can you? maybe its just 11 but they usually have a letter as well?
Changelog ========= Report issues to [GitHub]. [GitHub]: https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues NDK --- * Removed all sysroots for pre-GB platform levels. We dropped support for them in r11, but neglected to actually remove them. * Exception handling when using `c++_shared` on ARM32 now mostly works (see [Known Issues](#known-issues)). The unwinder will now be linked into each linked object rather than into libc++ itself. * Default compiler flags have been pruned: https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/27. * Full changes here: https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/207721/5. * `-fno-limit-debug-info` has been enabled by default for Clang debug builds. This should improve debugability with LLDB. * `--build-id` is now enabled by default. * This will be shown in native crash reports so you can easily identify which version of your code was running. * `NDK_USE_CYGPATH` should no longer cause problems with libgcc: http://b.android.com/195486. * `-Wl,--warn-shared-textrel` and`-Wl,--fatal-warnings` are now enabled by default. If you have shared text relocations, your app will not load on Marshmallow or later (and have never been allowed for 64-bit apps). * Precompiled headers should work better: https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/14 and https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/16. Clang ----- * Clang has been updated to 3.8svn (r256229, build 2690385). * Note that Clang packaged in the Windows 64 NDK is actually 32-bit. * `__thread` should work for real this time. GCC --- * Synchronized with the ChromeOS GCC @ `google/gcc-4_9` r227810. * Backported coverage sanitizer patch from ToT (r231296). * Fixed libatomic to not use ifuncs: https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/31. Binutils -------- * "Erratum 843419 found and fixed" info messages are silenced. * Introduced option '--long-plt' to fix internal linker error when linking huge arm32 binaries. * Fixed wrong run time stubs for AArch64. This was causing jump addresses to be calculated incorrectly for very large DSOs. * Introduced default option '--no-apply-dynamic' to work around a dynamic linker bug for earlier Android releases. * NDK r11 KI for `dynamic_cast` not working with Clang, x86, `stlport_static` and optimization has been fixed. GDB --- * Updated to GDB 7.11: https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/news/. Known Issues ------------ * This is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all outstanding bugs. * x86 ASAN still does work. See discussion on https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/186276/ * Exception unwinding with `c++_shared` still does not work for ARM on Gingerbread or Ice Cream Sandwich. * Bionic headers and libraries for Marshmallow and N are not yet exposed despite the presence of android-24. Those platforms are still the Lollipop headers and libraries (not a regression from r11). * RenderScript tools are not present (not a regression from r11): https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/7. * r12 will most likely not work with Android Studio/Gradle right away. The Gradle plugin will need to be updated to match the build changes we made in `ndk-build`. * We've regressed on http://b.android.com/41770.
Android Studio installs all versions of the NDK in the android-sdk /ndk/ directory. Each version is located in a subdirectory with the version number as its name.
Code written in C/C++ can be compiled to ARM, or x86 native code (or their 64-bit variants) using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK). The NDK uses the Clang compiler to compile C/C++. GCC was included until NDK r17, but removed in r18 in 2018. Android NDK.
You'll need to point to your NDK in your eclipse by adding the path of ndk-build to Window > preferences > android > NDK. Right click on your project folder. Choose android tools -> add native support (the bottom one) and click finish. Now it will ask for a name for your .
There's a source.properties
file in the root of the NDK for r11 and newer. Older versions had a RELEASE.TXT
.
