I am trying to build this app
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Calendar/
I have cloned the repository then run on it ndk-build.
At first, it complained about min version mismatch after fixing it I am getting
Android NDK: Your APP_BUILD_SCRIPT points to an unknown file: ./jni/Android.mk
Is there an environment setup that I need in order to build it?

My client is requesting I package CommonCrypto inside their app and not use the version supplied by the OS.
I haven't found any pre-built distributions, but I found the source code (sans build instructions). Is there a simple way to build from source?
I tried using ndk-build, but I see the following error:
Android NDK: ERROR:Android.mk:corecrypto: LOCAL_SRC_FILES points to a missing file
Android NDK: Check that /SWE/release/Software/Harissa/Updates/BuiltHarissa/Roots/corecrypto/prebuilts/armeabi-v7a/libcorecrypto.so exists or that its path is correct
/Users/rajohns/Library/Android/sdk/ndk/21.0.6113669/build/core/prebuilt-library.mk:45: *** Android NDK: Aborting . Stop.
And as seen in the Android.mk file, the corecrypto module does in fact point to an unknown /SWE/release/Software/Harissa/Updates/BuiltHarissa/Roots/corecrypto directory.
I have installed ndk correctly when working with previous projects.I have downloaded now openpeer library for Android. When I load the openpeer sdk, I get the following:
14:59:28 ** Clean-only build of configuration Default for project openpeer-android-sdk **

I also got an error in the project but all of the files appear without any error signs. Please advise
I think you have a problem with the NDK_PROJECT_PATH environment variable..
Are you compiling over cygwin? what is the cygwin connection?
He tries to find some file at this path : /cygdrive/d/Android Workspace/openpeer-android-sdk/jni/Android.mk
This is the error I get, I followed different guides to install and run NDK but just couldn't manage it. Always a problem

It's a warning, not an error. This warning has been introduced recently, in the latest release of NDK. The OpenCV build scripts have not yet accomodated the necessary workarounds, but I have no doubt the fix will be ready quite soon.
In the mean time, you can ignore the warning. I would advise to keep your eye on it, so that except for opencv libraries, no unexpected names appear in the build log.
I have a similar question to that posted here:
Android NDK: why ndk-build doesn't generate .so file and a new libs folder in Eclipse?
...though I am running Windows 7, not Mac os. Essentially the ndk-build command is run, gives no error but doesn't create an .so file (also, since I'm on windows this should create a .dll and not an .so?). I tried running the command from the root, jni, src folders etc. but got the same result; cmd just returns to the prompter after a few seconds. I ran it again from the jni folder with NDK_LOG=1 parameter to see what was happening. Here is a portion of the transcript of the log results after running ndk-build in the jni folder (after it successfully identified the platform, etc.)...

Set up a builder. Refer to following article for how to do that:
http://maxters.net/2011/02/android-ndk-builder-for-eclipse-in-windows/
There is a "small" change beginning NDK r8 – Cygwin is not necessary anymore and I had a trouble when building native libraries with Cygwin and NDK r8 – there was some error message about cxx-stl...
Almost everything in the link above is OK, but leave Arguments in the Main tab blank and change Location to:
${env_var:ANDROID_NDK_ROOT}/ndk-build.cmd
I use system variable path ANDROID_NDK_ROOT, but you can provide a full path to the ndk-build.cmd.
Also, there is no need to set any variable in the Environment tab.
Set up your builder this way and you will be fine.
Just a note, Android is built on the top of the Linux OS, so even if you are on Windows you will get Linux libraries with .so extension.
Following link was instructive but missing a detail if you are configuring NDK support in Eclipse after CDT it already depricated (summer of 2017 already).
http://maxters.net/2011/02/android-ndk-builder-for-eclipse-in-windows/
Where you need to configure your external builder Location, instead of pointing to cygwin\bin\bash.exe and adding as Argument your ndk-build.cmd location this is what worked for me on Windows 7 and 10.
In "Edit Configuration" dialog for external builder do following:
- for Location -> specify where your "ndk-build.cmd" is. i.e "D:\Android\NDK\ndk-build.cmd"
- for Arguments -> just specify "all"
The NDK build system relies on wildcards to find the sources to compile. If you have a path wrong somewhere, it will find no sources and do nothing. Check Android.mk very carefully. More can't be said unless you post Android.mk and a description of the source tree.
I downloaded andless project from below link
http://code.google.com/p/andless/downloads/list
i am trying to install ndk for running above application and during installation this error is occurred. Please give any solution for remove this error.
Android NDK: There is no Android.mk under apps/lossless/project/jni
Android NDK: If this is intentional please define APP_BUILD_SCRIPT to
point Android NDK: to a valid NDK build script.
