Building for Android Problems

[brentdunham]

Using NDK - r8b,
I created a standalone toolchain, added the bin folder of that toolchain to my PATH.
ran
./configure --config=Android --no-samples --no-tests
make -j4

Here's the info from the first compile error:

Could anyone help me out on this?

I can confirm arm-linux-androideabi-g++ is the one in my custom toolchain's bin folder.

Is your PATH correct so that make picks up your custom toolchain's compiler instead of the default one (which does not support STL)?

[ahtoh]

I have built poco successfully with NDK r7, but with NDK r8b I had had the same problem before I found ugly but working workaround.

I don't fully understand your question

Is your PATH correct so that make picks up your custom toolchain's compiler instead of the default one (which does not support STL)?

but first of all, I did the following steps from your post http://pocoproject.org/docs/99300-AndroidPlatformNotes.html:

$NDK/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-14 --install-dir=$HOME/android-toolchain

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/android-toolchain/bin

./configure --config=Android --no-samples --no-tests --include-path=/home/user/android-ssl/include --library-path=/home/user/android-ssl/lib

and this led to the same error as brentdunham got.

Then I reconfigured poco:
./configure --config=Android --no-samples --no-tests --include-path=/home/user/android-ssl/include,/home/user/android-toolchain/sysroot/usr/include,/home/user/android-toolchain/arm-linux-androideabi/include/c++/4.6,/home/user/android-toolchain/arm-linux-androideabi/include/c++/4.6/arm-linux-androideabi/thumb --library-path=/home/user/android-ssl/lib,/home/user/android-toolchain/sysroot/usr/lib,/home/user/android-toolchain/arm-linux-androideabi/lib/thumb
after all I built poco for armeabi architecture successfully, I had chosen thumb set of binaries and headers because in Android config for POCO for armeabi used -mthumb flag but I am not sure that this is right choice.

When I considered about rewriting Android config for POCO I found that in arm-linux-androideabi directories exists three different set of binaries and headers for: armv7-a, thumb and default set, but I didn't fully understand when thumb binaries and headers have to be used and when default binaries and headers, also I had to take into account x86 architecture and newest mips. So I didn't rewrite Android config.

I had this problem, it was because of a wrong directory name in the standalone toolchain, as in this bug report:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35279

Solution is:

# cd <yourstandalonetoolchain>/arm-linux-androideabi/include/c++
# mv 4.6 4.6.x-google
