Problem of compiling build_native.sh

winghorse · July 28, 2013, 1:04am

I’m a beginner of cocos2dx. When I was setting the project with cygwin, I faced the following error. I have no idea why it happened. May anyone help me?

Put this line in your Android.mk file.

LOCAL_CFLAGS := -w

Thank you for your reply. However, the problem cannot be solved. It still exists.

kradem · July 28, 2013, 11:05pm

It’s a problem with android-ndk-r9, try to get r8e for now.

Also you should download android-8 with SDK manager or set minimum to android-14.

I met the same error.

http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r8e-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
It works… ndk r8e

winghorse · July 30, 2013, 8:50am

Is is solved. Thank you

dotsquid · July 31, 2013, 8:00pm

Oops. I have had to delete my previous message due to stupid mistake.

So, to workaround this problem you should add -Wformat=0 to APP_CPPFLAGS in Application.mk
However, I believe the proper fix of this problem is to take those warnings into account and bring the code to a proper state.

xingmuxp · August 8, 2013, 1:34am

CCCommon.cpp line 44

change android_log_print; // error in ndk9
toandroid_log_print(ANDROID_LOG_DEBUG, “cocos2d-x debug info”, “%s”, buf);

Jgod · August 8, 2013, 5:20am

I put this in my Application.mk to solve the same problem.
APP_CFLAGS += -Wno-error=format-security

xavierarias · August 10, 2013, 7:25am

I’ve also found necessary to use APP_CPPFLAGS += -Wno-error=format-security.

I’ve seen some commits on github about this, so it shouldn’t bother on next versions

HC1 · August 19, 2013, 3:26pm

ok, some problem to me.
And I’ve try both way show upon, and never get it done.
suck^{^}

HC1 · August 21, 2013, 4:10pm

problem remain! I don’t wanna change the ndk to r8e any way. any way else?

Jgod · August 22, 2013, 12:16am

Post your error log so we can diagnose the problem.

I met similar question with environment ADT-Eclipse, andriod_ndk_9, when I compiling example project “HelloCpp” in cocos2d-x 2.1.5. There are only those warning info, but if I ignore it and run the application, can only show black screen without any info.

And I can compile and run it under visual studio dev environment. I config it by

*`` *** Build of configuration Default for project HelloCpp ****

It’s caused by android-ndk-r9, you could delete -Werror=format-security from android-ndk-r9/build/core/default-build-commands.mk

It’s not NDK, it’s Cocos2dx. Those errors/warnings are not an empty sound, they are important. The only correct solution is too fix the errors, not to make the compiler shut up.

it’s ndk,i’m deleteWerror=format-security compiler passed

Yeah, right, in addition disable all warnings: that’s definitely a true way.

android-ndk-r8b/build/core/prebuilt-library.mk:64: * target pattern contains no ‘%’。停止。

How can i resolve this problem?
