javah Android Studio Error: cannot access android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity class file for android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity not found

Question

I am following this tutorial on how to use NDK with Android Studio: http://www.ph0b.com/android-studio-gradle-and-ndk-integration/

I have android studio 0.9.3 installled on windows 8, and i follow each step of the tutorial in the video, and at the step to generate jni folder i do this in the android studio's terminal :

D:\ANDROID\workspace\NDKSample\app\src\main>javah -d jni -classpath D:\ANDROID\kits\sdk\platforms\android-19\android.jar;D:\ANDROID\workspace\NDKSample\app\build\intermediates\classes\debug com.jihv.gildas.ndksample.MainActivity

and I have this error :

Error: cannot access android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity class file for android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity not found

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Answer 1

You need to add the support jar files to the classpath too. They'd be in D:\ANDROID\kits\sdk\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat\libs. You need to add both the android-support-v7-appcompat.jar and android-support-v4.jar files.

Answer 2

Try add the full path name both with android-support-v7-appcompat.jar and android-support-v4.jar files after android.jar,

For example

D:\ANDROID\workspace\NDKSample\app\src\main>javah -d jni -classpath D:\ANDROID\kits\sdk\platforms\android-19\android.jar;D:\ANDROID\kits\sdk\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat\libs\android-support-v7-appcompat.jar;D:\ANDROID\kits\sdk\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat\libs\android-support-v4.jar;D:\ANDROID\workspace\NDKSample\app\build\intermediates\classes\debug com.jihv.gildas.ndksample.MainActivity
