Cocos2d-x v3.12 released!

[smitpatel88]

Still no Android studio support
Cant even just add c++ support for coding? No run/debug, just auto complete
so atleast we can edit project which have sdkbox implementation.

Js is not available now on Tizen platform, only Lua and C++ are supported.

Hi, in near future, will JS support Tizen platform??
thanks

@dbest10 yep, it supports IPV6 only, but it may have issue with CURL lib, can refer to this issue

@pbs0512 i met the issue if i changed tests/cpp-tests/proj.android/project.properties from target=android-10 to target=android-19. It is possible that different Android OS has different symbols. And websockets uses bsd_signal that are removed in higher Android OS. So i suggest you downloading Android 10.

@smitpatel88 will try to support in in 3.13, we are waiting a good supporting of Android Studio.

[dbest10]

Thanks zhangxm. Unfortunately it could mean that my app may still be rejected by Apple.

[zhangxm]

@pbs0512 i found that this error is caused by NDK compatibility issue, can refer to this issue for detail information.

Indeed, the arch-arm/usr/include/signal.h header up to "android-19" contained:

/* differentiater between sysv and bsd behaviour 8*/
extern __sighandler_t sysv_signal(int, __sighandler_t);
extern __sighandler_t bsd_signal(int, __sighandler_t);

/* the default is bsd */
static __inline__ __sighandler_t signal(int s, __sighandler_t f)
{
    return bsd_signal(s,f);
}
but starting at "android-21" (there is no android-20) has just:

extern sighandler_t signal(int, sighandler_t);
So it looks that stdlib would have to use different symbols depending on which version of Android SDK it was targeting.

[CrazyHappyGame]

So recommended configuration for android is:
android sdk:10
ndk:r11c
?
I think that cocos command line should check it and do not allow compile in different configuration

Hi guys
I tried to compile the “HelloWorld” project with:

cocos run -s . -p android --ap android-23 -m release

And I get this errors:

I did a successful build with

[Pantoo]

Hi, in near future, will JS support Tizen platform??
thanks smile

[na299]

You need to add

useLibrary  'org.apache.http.legacy'

under “android” node in the build.gradle of the lib project if the targetSDK in gradle script is 23 or above.

[drakon99]

@na299 what build.gradle should I modify?
I modified cocos2d/cocos/platform/android/libcocos2dx/build.gradle

And now looks like this:

apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"
    useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 10
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }

    sourceSets.main {
        aidl.srcDir "../java/src"
        java.srcDir "../java/src"
        manifest.srcFile "AndroidManifest.xml"
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: '../java/libs', include: ['*.jar'])
}

However I have the problem yet!

[na299]

yeah, that is the file I was talking about.
But now I don’t know why you are still getting the error… Sorry…

–UPDATE–
Ah, I see, you are using Eclipse project! not android studio…
If you have Android studio, try with parameter: --android-studio in your build command:

cocos run -s . -p android --ap android-23 -m release --android-studio

I don’t know how to include the legacy library in ADT project with Eclipse.

[drakon99]

@na299

Yep, by now I’m using the proj.android project.
I’m not using Android Studio! It is required to use --android-studio or it is sufficient to install gradle?
Should I report this problem on https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x/issues?

[drakon99]

For now I’m using the solution proposed in this topic:

Can't compile to Android

I am trying to compile to Android but I get an error. First I tried with my game but now I am trying with a new project and the error is the same, so I guess that something is not configured properly. I am on Windows (but I have a similar or the same problem in Linux before…). Cocos 3.10, JDK 8u45, NDK r10e, SDK tools 24.4.1, Andorid 6.0 (API 23). This is the end of the output: -code-gen: [mergemanifest] Merging AndroidManifest files into one. [mergemanifest] Manifest merger disabled. Using …

I can now build with:

cocos run -s . -p android --ap android-23 -m release

[na299]

I think that is the solution for ADT project…

[lfmn]

I’m facing this error on xcode v6.1.1:
/cocos2d/cocos/platform/ios/CCDevice-ios.mm Line 348:

Cannot initialize a parameter of type 'NSStringDrawingOptions' with an rvalue of type 'long'

dim = [str boundingRectWithSize:CGSizeMake(textRect.width, textRect.height)
  options:(NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin|NSStringDrawingUsesFontLeading)
  context:nil].size;

[zhangxm]

@CrazyHappyGame Indeed Android break compatibility usually, we can not make sure which version has the problem, for example, please refer to this issue.

[Yehsam]

Why remove “getOrderOfArrival”

If removed this function, should using stable_sort in Node::sortAllChildren!!?

like Sort Issue

[bilalmirza]

I get this error when i build for ios

“_CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString”, referenced from:

  _calculateShrinkedSizeForString(NSAttributedString**, objc_object*, CGSize, bool, int&) in libcocos2d iOS.a(CCDevice-ios.o)

“_CTFramesetterSuggestFrameSizeWithConstraints”, referenced from:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

[bilalmirza]

I upgraded cocos by replacing the cocos2d folder… this gave the above error.

I fixed it by creating a new project and and then replacing classes and resources folder. It worked fine.

Thanks
