set environment variable `ANDROID_NDK_HOME`

Question

I am using macbook. I have downloaded Android NDK & extracted it to

~/mytool/android-ndk-r10e

In .bash_profile I have set :

export ANDROID_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_NDK_HOME = ~/mytool/android-ndk-r10e

My project pom.xml contains the following plugin:

<plugin>
   <groupId>com.simpligility.maven.plugins</groupId>
   <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId>
   <version>4.3.0</version>
   <extensions>true</extensions>
</plugin>

When I run mvn clean install, I got the following error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.simpligility.maven.plugins:android-maven-plugin:4.3.0:ndk-build (default-ndk-build) on project MyTrackor: No Android NDK path could be found. 

You may configure it in the pom using <ndk><path>...</path></ndk> or <properties><ndk.path>...</ndk.path></properties> or on command-line using -Dandroid.ndk.path=... or by setting environment variable ANDROID_NDK_HOME -> [Help 1]

The above error complains that no Android NDK path could be found, and it suggests me to set environment variable ANDROID_NDK_HOME to resolve the problem.

But as you see in my .bash_profile, I have already set the envrionment variable ANDROID_NDK_HOME. Why I still get this error ?

Answer 1

using line command to verify all exported variables

export 

if you do no see ANDROID_NDK_HOME, that means you bash file has not been reloaded. then

source .bash_profile to reload the config. 

else you see ANDROID_NDK_HOME, it may be another problem.
