I'm trying to compile libdispatch for linux on Android. However I could not find any instructions for Android in the project files.
I can see there are several StackOverflow questions about using libdispatch, but the information is rather thin.
Has anyone successfully compiled libdispatch for Android using NDK?
I haven't personally tried compiling libdispatch for Android, but I have built many other libraries. It looks like building libdispatch should be quite easy, as there is already an Android.mk file in the repository. You should be able to build this library with the following command (split across lines for readability):
<ndk directory path>/ndk-build \
-C <path to libdispatch source directory> \
NDK_LIBS_OUT=<path to directory for built libraries> \
APP_BUILD_SCRIPT=Android.mk

I use Qt Creator to compile an Android application. I needed to integrate OpenCV into it, and it took me half a day to configure it properly, so I want to document the steps I took here, in case somebody else ever has to do it.
Edit: For OpenCV 4.x see the answers below. My answer was tested on OpenCV 2.4 only.
Original answer:
First, I downloaded OpenCV-2.4.10-android-sdk, and put into my project directory. It contains static libraries, and link order matters for static libraries for GCC. So you need to order them just so. This is how my .pro file looked in the end ($$_PRO_FILE_PWD_ refers to the project directory):
INCLUDEPATH += "$$_PRO_FILE_PWD_/OpenCV-2.4.10-android-sdk/sdk/native/jni/include"
android {
LIBS += \
-L"$$_PRO_FILE_PWD_/OpenCV-2.4.10-android-sdk/sdk/native/3rdparty/libs/armeabi-v7a"\
-L"$$_PRO_FILE_PWD_/OpenCV-2.4.10-android-sdk/sdk/native/libs/armeabi-v7a"\
-llibtiff\
-llibjpeg\
-llibjasper\
-llibpng\
-lIlmImf\
-ltbb\
-lopencv_core\
-lopencv_androidcamera\
-lopencv_flann\
-lopencv_imgproc\
-lopencv_highgui\
-lopencv_features2d\
-lopencv_calib3d\
-lopencv_ml\
-lopencv_objdetect\
-lopencv_video\
-lopencv_contrib\
-lopencv_photo\
-lopencv_java\
-lopencv_legacy\
-lopencv_ocl\
-lopencv_stitching\
-lopencv_superres\
-lopencv_ts\
-lopencv_videostab
ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR=$$_PRO_FILE_PWD_/android
}
After that the project will compile but it will fail to run with the error
E/AndroidRuntime(11873): java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Cannot load library: link_image[1891]: 176 could not load needed library 'libopencv_java.so' for 'libMyProject.so' (load_library[1093]: Library 'libopencv_java.so' not found)
To overcome this, you need to add libopencv_java.so to your APK, and then manually load it from QtActivity.java. That's what the ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR=$$_PRO_FILE_PWD_/android line at the end was for. Now you need to place libopencv_java.so here:
project_root/android/libs/armeabi-v7a/libopencv_java.so
project_root/android/src/org/qtproject/qt5/android/bindings/QtActivity.java
You can get QtActivity.java from the Android target build directory, in my case the full path was c:\Workspace\build-MyProject-Android_for_armeabi_v7a_GCC_4_9_Qt_5_4_0-Debug\android-build\src\org\qtproject\qt5\android\bindings\QtActivity.java, and just copy it.
Then you find those lines in it:
// now load the application library so it's accessible from this class loader
if (libName != null)
System.loadLibrary(libName);
And load libopencv_java.so before them, so they become:
// This is needed for OpenCV!!!
System.loadLibrary("opencv_java");
// now load the application library so it's accessible from this class loader
if (libName != null)
System.loadLibrary(libName);
Note that you pass opencv_java to System.loadLibrary(), even though the file is libopencv_java.so.
Edit: I forgot to mention, but I already had installed OpenCV Manager on my phone when trying to run one of the samples that come with OpenCV-2.4.10-android-sdk, so I don't know if it's needed or not. In any event, keep it in mind, if it fail even after my steps, you might need to download OpenCV Manager (it's available on the Google Store).
Edit 2: I'm using adt-bundle-windows-x86-20140702, android-ndk-r10d, OpenCV-2.4.10-android-sdk, Qt Creator 3.3.0, and my build target is "Android for armeabi-v7a (GCC 4.9, Qt 5.4.0)".
Edit 3: From Daniel Saner's comment:
In OpenCV 3.x, opencv_java has been renamed to opencv_java3. Also, while I didn't look into the specific changes that might have effected this, the workaround regarding that library in the final step seems to no longer be necessary. The app compiles and runs without the ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR line
Edit 4: #myk's comment:
Worked for me with OpenCV 3.2. To workaround the build issues with carotene finish the LIBS+ section with: -lopencv_videostab\ -ltegra_hal\ – myk 2 hours ago
For OpenCV 4, sashoalm's approach did not work for me until I adapted it:
Download the Android-Pack and unzip it somewhere. We'll create a qmake-variable OPENCV_ANDROID which points to that directory later.
Add the following snippet to your *.pro-file:
android {
contains(ANDROID_TARGET_ARCH,arm64-v8a) {
isEmpty(OPENCV_ANDROID) {
error("Let OPENCV_ANDROID point to the opencv-android-sdk, recommended: v4.0")
}
INCLUDEPATH += "$$OPENCV_ANDROID/sdk/native/jni/include"
LIBS += \
-L"$$OPENCV_ANDROID/sdk/native/libs/arm64-v8a" \
-L"$$OPENCV_ANDROID/sdk/native/3rdparty/libs/arm64-v8a" \
-llibtiff \
-llibjpeg-turbo \
-llibjasper \
-llibpng \
-lIlmImf \
-ltbb \
-lopencv_java4 \
ANDROID_EXTRA_LIBS = $$OPENCV_ANDROID/sdk/native/libs/arm64-v8a/libopencv_java4.so
} else {
error("Unsupported architecture: $$ANDROID_TARGET_ARCH")
}
}
This will work for the arm64-v8a only. If you happen to build for another architecture (apparently 32-Bit is still the default for Qt#Android), you must change the .../libs/arm64-v8a part of the paths (occurs 3 times) and the same to match your actual target-architecture (the contains(...)-part in the second line of the snippet).
Tell qmake where to find the SDK. Add the following to qmake-call: "OPENCV_ANDROID=/path/to/OpenCV-android-sdk".
e.g., this looks like qmake example.pro "OPENCV_ANDROID=/home/user/OpenCV-android-sdk" from command line.
when you use QtCreator, add "OPENCV_ANDROID=..." to the "Additional arguments"-field. You can find it after enabling the Project-Mode in the Build-section of the android-kit. Expand the qmake-field under Build Steps
Starting from Android android-ndk-r18b, with Qt Creator 4.9.x kits, I could not use the openCV-4.1.1 pre-compiled shared libraries (.so) with Qt Android ABI armeabi-v7a target and ABI arm64-v8a, as Opencv standard is based on GCC, While the NDK-r18b removed gcc and uses clang compiler. ( I am getting
Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1
On initialize calling android_getCpuFeatures() when the application starts)
Thus, openCV shared libs must be compiled from sources for clang in order to be used with Qt Android kits.
This reference Compiling OpenCV on Android from C++ (Without OpenCVManager) was of real help. I would leave a reference here as well for a simple procedure I used under windows 10, to get opencv compiled with NDK 18 (clang) for Qt Android:
Downloaded openCV source code
Downloaded openCV contrib source for selected openCV version
Used cmake for windows
in the unzipped opencv source folder, created a new build folder.
MinGW from Qt installation can generally be used for building, So I used Qt 5.11.x (MinGW 5.3.0 32 bit) command line tool from Qt menu.
from command line, in new build folder, I could generate cmake configuration :
C:\opencv-4.1.1\build> "C:\program files\cmake\bin\cmake" .. -G"MinGW Makefiles"
-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON
-DANDROID_STL=c++_shared
-DANDROID_ABI="armeabi-v7a with NEON"
-DANDROID_NATIVE_API_LEVEL=23
-DANDROID_TOOLCHAIN=clang
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=D:\Qt\android-ndk-r18b\build\cmake\android.toolchain.cmake
-DANDROID_NDK=D:\Qt\android-ndk-r18b
-DANDROID_SDK=C:\Users\moham\AppData\Local\Android\sdk
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
-DBUILD_ANDROID_PROJECTS=OFF
-DWITH_OPENCL=ON -DWITH_TBB=ON -DENABLE_NEON=ON
-DBUILD_TESTS=OFF -DBUILD_PERF_TESTS=OFF
-DBUILD_FAT_JAVA_LIB=OFF
Then , C:\opencv-4.1.1\build>\mingw32-make -jx and C:\opencv-4.1.1\build>\mingw32-make install
the result libs can be picked from opencv-4.1.1\build\install folder
Link in Qt Android project:
android {
#opencv
OPENCVLIBS = $$PWD/../opencv-4.1.1\build\install/sdk/native
INCLUDEPATH = $$OPENCVLIBS/jni/include
contains(ANDROID_TARGET_ARCH,armeabi-v7a) {
# might need libs to be copied into app's library folder and loaded on start-up, in case android ships older libs??!
ANDROID_EXTRA_LIBS = \
$$OPENCVLIBS/libs/armeabi-v7a/libopencv_core.so \
$$OPENCVLIBS/libs/armeabi-v7a/libopencv_imgproc.so \
$$OPENCVLIBS/libs/armeabi-v7a/libtbb.so
LIBS += -L"$$OPENCVLIBS/libs/armeabi-v7a"\
-lopencv_core -lopencv_imgproc -ltbb
}
ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR = $$PWD/android
}
Also, copy the libs to ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR
Note: If detailed control over cmake configuration is needed, cmake windows gui can be used, while not a must and not tested. AmMIN's procedure is helpful for cmake tool, remember to add flag for shared Android STL.
A lot of people have mentioned about compiling ffmpeg for android. But I recently tried many of them and did not find them working.
Here is what I tried.
https://github.com/guardianproject/android-ffmpeg-java
but in this I got the following errors.
/home/musil/Desktop/android-ndk-r10c-linux-x86_64/android-ndk-r10c/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc --sysroot=/home/musil/Desktop/android-ndk-r10c-linux-x86_64/android-ndk-r10c/platforms/android-3/arch-arm -I../x264 -mfloat-abi=softfp -mfpu=neon -mcpu=cortex-a8 -c -o /tmp/ffconf.6LOSva5W.o /tmp/ffconf.YWZ9ftQ8.c
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory
C compiler test failed.
Than I have tried other way mentioned on
http://www.roman10.net/how-to-build-ffmpeg-with-ndk-r9/
but in that I got the following error.
But in that the prefix install is /usr/local/ instead of ./arm/ and arch is x86 instead of arm. And it compiles but no arm folder is created.
Does anyone know how to compile ffmpeg for ndk-r10c.
Will be very helpful if someone can point out what I am doing wrong or how can I build the ffmpeg 2.4.1 for latest ndk.
Thanks
I am not sure why you see that error. I was able to successfully compile FFMpeg and you should be able to get the .so files for all architecture from this link https://github.com/android-native-libraries

I'm trying to separate a Java Library, that is used by multiple Android "services", into a dynamic or shared library that can be loaded by those independent services without having the library included into the APK of each service.
I know there are different ways of doing this like creating an Android Service or using DexLoader and Reflection but I'm trying to avoid changing the source of the library. Instead I'm trying to build it and install it on my device (essentially extending the provided android API).
The following is a very similar question which is still unanswered:
Create Android apps in Eclipse sharing common library
I know this is something Google doesn't want to disclose so finding information online is extremely difficult.
So far I've tried placing a simple "Hello World" program under the frameworks dir and build it which successfully created a jar for my program. Then I added my package in product/core.mk and in addition added my package definition under api/10.xml after which I ran "make sdk" which resulted in the following error message:
******************************
You have tried to change the API from what has been previously released in
an SDK. Please fix the errors listed above.
******************************
make: *** [out/target/common/obj/PACKAGING/checkapi-last-timestamp] Error 38
As a workaround I added my package into "public_api.xml" file, inside the out directory, which is somehow dynamically created during the build process. With this workaround the SDK is built with no errors (although if I do clean again I'll have to modify the public_api.xml again because it will be removed due to clean). However, when I try to import and use my package anywhere it still says that my package "does not exist"
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Finally figured it out. The solution turns out to be very simple!
Place your library in the frameworks/base folder and make sure all your source code is inside under java directory like so:
../frameworks/base/HelloWorld/java/<source files and folders>
Edit core.mk file located under build/target/product/ to include your package in the list. This will add HelloWorld library to the framework:
PRODUCT_PACKAGES := \
bouncycastle \
:
:
DefaultContainerService \
Bugreport \
HelloWorld
Edit pathmap.mk file located under build/core/ to include your directory in the list. This will add HelloWorld library to the android.jar
FRAMEWORKS_BASE_SUBDIRS := \
$(addsuffix /java, \
core \
graphics \
location \
media \
opengl \
sax \
telephony \
wifi \
vpn \
keystore \
voip \
HelloWorld \
)
Done. rebuild android and it should not complain and add your library to framework.jar!
I hope this helps.
I am developing an Android app on windows, using eclipse.
I would like to use OpenSSL for my Android application. It needs to be used with C++ via NDK.
I tried to download fries' OpenSSL source code from https://github.com/fries/android-external-openssl and build it.
I read the README.android file, but I didn't understand what these instructions are for.
Do I need to download the OpenSSL source code in addition to the fries source code?
I have tried putting all the files from Fries' into my jni folder of the Android project. It complained about not finding e_os.h and openssl/crypto.h and others like that.
More specifically:
In file included from D:/Projects/Fatal/Android/OpenSSL/jni/ssl/s2_meth.c:59:
D:/Projects/Fatal/Android/OpenSSL/jni/ssl/ssl_locl.h:124:18: error: e_os.h: No such file or directory
D:/Projects/Fatal/Android/OpenSSL/jni/ssl/ssl_locl.h:126:28: error: openssl/buffer.h: No such file or directory
D:/Projects/Fatal/Android/OpenSSL/jni/ssl/ssl_locl.h:127:26: error: openssl/comp.h: No such file or directory
I am not sure why it doesn't find those files, I tried to add all sort of paths into LOCAL_C_INCLUDES in all sort of Android.mk files, but nothing worked.
I would like to know how to build OpenSSL for Android. Thank you.
I know this is old, but I kept coming across this when I was searching for this problem. In the case that you are building a standalone OpenSSL to go with your project and are getting this error, I found a solution as per this thread:
In openssl-android/crypto, openssl-android/ssl, and openssl-android/apps, you'll find a variable declaration for local_c_includes that is something like this:
local_c_includes := \
$(NDK_PROJECT_PATH) \
$(NDK_PROJECT_PATH)/crypto/asn1 \
$(NDK_PROJECT_PATH)/crypto/evp \
$(NDK_PROJECT_PATH)/include \
$(NDK_PROJECT_PATH)/include/openssl
If you've placed your openssl-android directory in your Android project in the project/jni directory, then these variables no longer point to the correct location. The way I solved it was to modify these paths to be relative to LOCAL_PATH:
local_c_includes := \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/.. \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/asn1 \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/evp \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/../include \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/../include/openssl
Remember, you'll have to do this for each of the directories you're trying to build (crypto, ssl, or apps).
I realized that the fries' github is just something to patch the source of OpenSSL, it's not a stand alone OpenSSL for android.
It is required because it provide Android.mk files which are required by ndk-build of ndk. You don't want to build it using standard gcc because you want to build it for Android.
