Thanks, it goes further now but still fails:

Looks like something wrong with the Application.mk you don’t need arm64-v8a

krow · April 5, 2017, 10:50am

Thanks, appended this line to proj.android/jni/Application.mk:

APP_ABI := armeabi

Now the build progresses further, but fails with:

Thanks for your work on this.

APP_STL := gnustl_static #c++_static  #c++_static still compile error

Unfortunately the rest of my project won’t compile with gnustl_static, only c++_static.

nite · April 7, 2017, 12:08am

Have you tried using ndk r10d or r10e?

krow · April 7, 2017, 12:54am

Yes. A lot of code in my project builds no problem in the latest Visual Studio, XCode and NDK r14, but cannot build in NDK r10e. There are bugs in

<functional>

in r10e for example, that have been fixed in newer NDK versions.

Edit:

Looking at the NDK version history:

https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/revision_history.html

r10e is from May 2015. Starting with r11:

We strongly recommend switching to Clang

and

GCC in the NDK is now deprecated in favor of Clang

This makes cross platform development easier: we already have to use Clang for iOS/macOS, so we will only need to support 2 compilers: Microsoft Visual C++ and Clang. (Not GCC.)

nite · April 7, 2017, 1:23am

cocos2d-x tried to switch to clang with 3.13 and it didn’t end well, there are still bugs with clang. Meanwhile we’re still looking into the r14 issue.

krow · April 7, 2017, 1:59am

OK, thanks. Would it maybe help compatibility if we had a dynamically linked SDKBox for Android, i.e. libsdkbox.so instead of libsdkbox.a?

nite · April 7, 2017, 10:32pm

Yes it’s possible to have a dynamic lib, it would be actually easier to integrate.

felox · May 30, 2017, 2:53pm

I’m using windows, cocos 3.15, Android Studio 2.3.2, targetSdkVersion 13.

After integrating iap the missing dependencies error persist.
Module MyGame_shared depends on undefined modules: android_native_app_glue

App compiles wirh APP_ALLOW_MISSING_DEPS := true in Android.mk but not sure if this is safe to use.

nite · May 30, 2017, 10:07pm

Can you try lower your NDK version to 10e maybe?

felox · May 31, 2017, 5:40pm

I’m not really willing to downgrade NDK because 13 is the current default for Cocos so i don’t know if this is safe. I’ll give it it a try and report but would prefer to maintain NDK 13, guess Cocos sets it to 13 for a reason.

Currently changed in Android.mk:

LOCAL_WHOLE_STATIC_LIBRARIES := PluginSdkboxPlay
sdkbox
PluginReview
PluginIAP
android_native_app_glue

To:

LOCAL_WHOLE_STATIC_LIBRARIES := PluginSdkboxPlay
sdkbox
PluginReview
PluginIAP

Seems to run fine, i can do purchases to google in the alpha version.

felox · May 31, 2017, 6:02pm

Changed to NDK 10, setting PROP_TARGET_SDK_VERSION=10 in gradle.properties, cleared project to be safe but still getting the same gradle error.

Error:(686, 0) Android NDK: Module MyGame_shared depends on undefined modules: android_native_app_glue

nite · June 5, 2017, 9:30pm

I don’t think this will change NDK version, you need to download ndk here

new NDK version support is underway.

felox · June 6, 2017, 12:30pm

Hope you fix it soon, i’m using AdMob, also via SDKBox and min sdk version is 14.

Game is in beta and purchases seem to go fine with Google servers. Just removed android_native_app_glue from LOCAL_WHOLE_STATIC_LIBRARIES in Android.mk.

yinjimmy · June 14, 2017, 7:07am

Hei,

Which STL you use, gnustl_static or c++_static ?

felox · June 14, 2017, 10:25am

.../proj.android-studio/app/jni/android.mk has the following line APP_STL := gnustl_static

Guess it’s cocos default (using cocos 3.15) as i never touched this file.

Anyway, if i change this line to c++_static. Still getting the same error.
