java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class on path: dexpathlist

Question

I'm currently working on a project in which I have to use purely native ndk. It worked when I try running an helloworld example from Irrlicht engine source. Then I try using it in my project following the same format of that example. But I got:

03-14 01:40:05.308: E/AndroidRuntime(799): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo{com.irrlicht.example1/android.app.POMActivity}: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "android.app.POMActivity" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/com.irrlicht.example1-2.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app-lib/com.irrlicht.example1-2, /system/lib]]

while running my project.

Here is my main.cpp file:

#include <android/log.h>
#include <jni.h>
#include <android_native_app_glue.h>
#include "android_tools.h"
#ifdef _IRR_ANDROID_PLATFORM_
void android_main(android_app* app)
{
__android_log_print(4 , "pom" , "nothing");
}

#endif

in Android.mk:

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)/..
IRRLICHT_PROJECT_PATH := $(LOCAL_PATH)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := Irrlicht
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := /home/karthik/Android/Essentials/ogl-es/lib/Android/libIrrlicht.a
include $(PREBUILT_STATIC_LIBRARY)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := HelloWorldMobile1
LOCAL_CFLAGS := -D_IRR_ANDROID_PLATFORM_ -pipe -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -fstrict-aliasing
LOCAL_C_INCLUDES := -I ../../include -I /home/karthik/Android/Essentials/ogl-es/include -I /home/karthik/Android/json/jsoncpp-src-0.5.0/libs/linux-gcc-4.8 -I /home/karthik/Android/json/jsoncpp-src-0.5.0/include/json 
LOCAL_SRC_FILES :=  android_tools.cpp main.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -lEGL -llog -lGLESv1_CM -lGLESv2 -lz -landroid -ldl 
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := Irrlicht android_native_app_glue
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module,android/native_app_glue)

And I have given Activity name in AndroidManifest.xml:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.irrlicht.example1"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0">
...
<application android:icon="@drawable/irr_icon" android:label="HelloWorldMobile1" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" android:debuggable="true">
        <activity android:name="android.app.POMActivity"
        android:label="HelloWorldMobile1"
        android:launchMode="singleTask"
        android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait"
        android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true">
        <meta-data android:name="android.app.lib_name" android:value="HelloWorldMobile1" />                     

What is the mistake I am doing here? I'll post full code if necassary.

Answer 1

I tried all possible options but result is zero. Finally i found correct solution which is helpful for me. Just go to disable Instant Run Go to File -> Settings -> Build,Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run -> Uncheck the checkbox for instant run. Run your app once and this apk file work properly..
