Hi,
Thank you great news!
Could you add information about recommended android sdk/ndk versions?
Is v3.12 works with latest android-ndk-r12b released June 2016?
Regards,
CHP
I have first issue:
“cocos gen-libs -p android” - fails
My configuration: sdk: android-19, ndk: android-ndk-r10c
Also there are very suspicious two things in this log:
“Building mode: debug” - it should be release
“NDK_TOOLCHAIN_VERSION=clang” and “gnu-libstdc++/4.8/include\bits/unordered_map.h” - gnu-libstdc++ with clang my not work well …

According to build requirements ndk 11+ is a must. I’m currently downloading ndk12b and v3.12 for testing purposes
EDIT: Link updated. tool for adding hyperlink changed the # by it’s ascii code 
@ishmar your link does not work.
Here http://cocos2d-x.org/docs/installation/A/ is:
“NDK r10c+ is required to build Android games”
It seems like ndk12b will in v3.13:
CHP
Continuing the discussion from Cocos2d-x v3.12 released!:
Let me apology @CrazyHappyGame, fórum editor cheated me and swapped the # by it’s ASCII code. I’ve updated the link, try again.
Agree, we’ll have to wait until ndk12b is supported. Meanwhile, guess we’ll have to give a try to ndk11. Full reléase notes also state that ndk11 is supported:
[FIX] Android: fix compiling error if using NDK r11+
@zhangxm Can you answer about the NDK version and also take a look at cocos gen-libs -p android failing?
I’ll test it as well.
Yep, there is an issue with ndk r12b, i am fixing it. I think NDK r11+ is ok though i uses ndk r11c.
Thank you!!

“tests\performance-tests” compile is success.
Nice to see a new update. Does this support IPv6 out of the box?
“* add Tizen support”
why dont I see Tizen Folder in my JS Game runtime-src folder ???
thanks
Seems very great the utils::findChild
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.
Thanks zhangxm. Unfortunately it could mean that my app may still be rejected by Apple.
@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.
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
