problem compiling cocos2dx-2.1.4 on mac for android development

cocos2d-x C++
#1

Hi, I’m following this tutorial:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/33750/cocos2d-x-tutorial-for-ios-and-android-getting-started
to setup eclipse for android development.
basically I encounter this problem:
*make: /librerieGiochi/android-ndk-r8e/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/darwin-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g+*: No such file or directory*
to summarize I have added this line to create-android-project.sh
# set environment paramters #NDK_ROOT_LOCAL="/librerieGiochi/android-eclipse/android-ndk-r9" NDK_ROOT_LOCAL="/librerieGiochi/android-ndk-r8e" ANDROID_SDK_ROOT_LOCAL="/librerieGiochi/android-eclipse/sdk"
then run it:

Android.mk is ignored seems from the log so the solution APP_CPPFLAGS*= -Wno-error=format-security. does not work…

…any advice?
thanks

Yeah I think “create-android-project.sh” is broken, or at least I tried it once the other day and gave up when it made a garbage project. I went and used the testCPP sample and moved my project into that.

Oh and the new 2.14 version, projects like testCPP are setup to compile inside Eclipse, no need for the console window (though you can). The only diss-advantage is when compiling a lot of code you can’t use Eclipse.

The only other pain is that the “Refactor” in Eclipse to rename the project doesn’t work and renaming by hand is a pain.

thanks, I’ll try:
what does “The only diss-advantage is when compiling a lot of code you can’t use Eclipse.” mean?
that ecplipse does not compile the project and should I compile every sigle file using consol g++ ecc…?
thanks
