Build VLC for Android project failed on Ubuntu 12.04 - android

I want to work on the VLC for Android project. So first I need to compile this project, I follow all the steps on https://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile/ but when I do the sh compile.sh -a armeabi-v7a at the end I have this error:
contribs: make failed
Error:Execution failed for task ':libvlc:buildDebugARMv5'. > Process 'command './compile-libvlc.sh'' finished with non-zero exit value 1
I am working with Android Studio.
Update
So I have download a ubuntu 12.04 vm and I have build the VLC android project on it. The same error appear but it told me also that my gettext was to old and it should be at 0.19.1 version or later.
So I quit the VM and I checked my gettext version (0.18.4) on my real machine, I put the gettext update and it is know 0.19.4 version.
I build the project and contribs: make failed error is gone but this is know the new error :
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* Where:
Build file '/home/edouard/3DSoundLabs/android/android/build.gradle' line: 16
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'android'.
> Failed to apply plugin [id 'android-sdk-manager']
> Specified SDK directory './3DSoundLabs/android/android-sdk-linux/' in 'local.properties' is not found.
* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
BUILD FAILED
Here is my local.properties and it's seems to be good, I don't understand
local.properties :
sdk.dir=./3DSoundLabs/android/android-sdk-linux/
ndk.dir=./3DSoundLabs/android/android-ndk-r10e/
RESOLVED !!
Okay so for the second error it was just a problem of path, my bad.
Correction :
sdk.dir=../android-sdk-linux/
ndk.dir=../android-ndk-r10e/
So the principal error was my version of gettext that was to old, and I didn't found it at the begening because log did not tell this problem.

You have not mentioned which bit version of Ubuntu you are using and VLC AndroidComile wiki says
very up-to-date versions of those tools.
So I went ahead and tested on 64-bit Ubuntu 14.04.
Here is what I did
Installed minimum required packages:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ant autoconf automake autopoint cmake gawk gcc g++ libtool m4 patch pkg-config libprotobuf-dev libprotobuf-c0-dev protobuf-c-compiler ragel subversion unzip
Navigated to VLC Android directory and run:
./compile.sh

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
during execution
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
during linking
- use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
- have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'
See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

$ gettext --version

As of this writing even vivid (v0.19.2-2) does not have that high level of gettext. So, I cheated and manually downgraded required gettext version to 0.18:
$ grep --include=configure.ac -rn AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION .
./vlc/configure.ac:439:AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.19.2])
./vlc/contrib/contrib-android-arm-linux-androideabi/gnutls/configure.ac:148:AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.18])
./vlc/contrib/contrib-android-arm-linux-androideabi/libgpg-error/configure.ac:158:AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.19.3])
One more ./compile.sh and bingo:

So, I decided to cancel Ctrl+C ./compile.sh and try to import the project to Android Studio.
Launched the AS and chose "Open an existing Android Studio project". AS also fetched some packages from jcenter and bingo (this time for real)!

On 64-bit Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid) is buil succesfull without using Android studio. Is needed only change this line:
from
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.19.3])
to
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.19.2])
in
./vlc/contrib/contrib-android-arm-linux-androideabi/libgpg-error/configure.ac
after this fail:

contribs: make failed
As suggested: ozbek.

I was stuck at:
contribs: make failed
I found another guide which helped me get this build working correctly.
The part that did it for me was the downloading and installation of protobuf3. Once I did that, vlc built for me.
Here's the snippet from the tutorial that made everything work
Download:
https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases/download/v3.1.0/protobuf-cpp-3.1.0.tar.gz
Then do:
sudo tar zxvf ./protobuf-cpp-3.1.0.tar.gz # decompression
cd ./protobuf-3.1.0/ # Extracted folder
./configure # Run configure
make
make check
sudo make install
make clean
sudo ldconfig # Update shared library cache
After this, running:
./compile.sh
worked correctly.
I have rebuilt libvlc on Ubuntu 14.04 since my attempt above on Ubuntu 16.04, and I noticed that this didn't fix my issue for Ubuntu 14.04. Once I created another Ubuntu 16.04 VM, this seamed to do the trick.
I think it's also related to the gettext program. Libvlc might be requiring a version of gettext only available on 16.04.

Building VLC player is really complex task and takes a lot of time. And error you get it's just first of many errors you'll try to fix on your way.
I'll suggest to you an easy way - not build VLC by yourself. Main ideas is - if you don't want to modify VLC sources it would be enough to get .so file from original VLC.apk(you could just unzip an apk) and copy org.videolan.libvlc.* files from vlc sources in your project.
You could check this project to get an idea how it could work.

After four days of New Year holiday I found the way to build this project.
Thanks ozbek and all helps.
I install ubuntu 15.10 again and clone it from https://github.com/hieu19926/vlc
Because I can't clone from origin site.
Following wiki of vlc to build, and following ozbek above.
Maybe you will have error of curl, following: curl Failed to connect to localhost port 80
or: https://github.com/rvm/rvm/issues/2989
That say: $echo ip4 >> ~/.curlrc
and logout, login again.
After step 2, if you see error of contrib, if it is iconv error, just edit in file: $vi vlc/contrib/src/iconv/rules.mak
line 26: comment out this line:
$(APPLY) $(SRC)/iconv/libiconv-android-ios.patch
And rebuild, it will run longer than before and successfully
Now I continue to find how to import libvlc to android studio T_T, Anyone who can remember some lib to install after build success, Please comment or post here for everyone, thanks!

I am not able to build .so file

I am trying to make an app for object detection using tensorflow and I am following the instructions as listed in this website:
https://www.skcript.com/svr/realtime-object-and-face-detection-in-android-using-tensorflow-object-detection-api/
But I have run into build errors.
I am making an android application for detecting objects using tensorflow API and I have followed all steps as mentioned in the above link. I am using Windows 10 for coding, not any Linux distro. I tried building the app using bazel but there are build errors.
Here's the command as instructed from the above website:
bazel build -c opt //tensorflow/contrib/android:libtensorflow_inference.so --crosstool_top=//external:android/crosstool --host_crosstool_top=#bazel_tools//tools/cpp:toolchain --cpu=armeabi-v7a
After running, it starts compiling and does 1069 processes, but after reaching 1068/1069 it displays the following:
ERROR: C:/sri/sritrain/tensorflow-master/tensorflow/contrib/android/BUILD:60:1: Linking of rule '//tensorflow/contrib/android:libtensorflow_inference.so' failed (Exit 1)
external/androidndk/ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/prebuilt/windows-x86_64/lib/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.9.x/../../../../arm-linux-androideabi/bin\ld: fatal error: bazel-out/armeabi-v7a-opt/bin/tensorflow/core/kernels/libandroid_tensorflow_kernels.lo: pread failed: Invalid argument

INFO: Elapsed time: 3148.512s, Critical Path: 443.26s
INFO: 1045 processes: 1045 local.
FAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully
I scoured through the internet and found a small modification so I typed:
bazel build -c opt //tensorflow/contrib/android:libtensorflow_inference.so --crosstool_top=//external:android/crosstool --host_crosstool_top=#bazel_tools//tools/cpp:toolchain --cpu=armeabi-v7a --cxxopt=-std=c++11
However this returns an error even before the previous command did:
ERROR: C:/sri/sritrain/tensorflow/tensorflow/contrib/android/BUILD:60:1: Linking of rule '//tensorflow/contrib/android:libtensorflow_inference.so' failed (Exit 1)

It is supposed to create a .so file on my computer but it doesn't.
I SOLVED IT!
I found the problem was that i was using the ndk-bundle from under Android Studio's folder and it was the latest ndk. I downloaded an older ndk version android_ndk_r15c and ran the command:
bazel build -c opt //tensorflow/contrib/android:libtensorflow_inference.so --crosstool_top=//external:android/crosstool --host_crosstool_top=#bazel_tools//tools/cpp:toolchain --cpu=armeabi-v7a --cxxopt=-std=c++11
So the build was completed successfully!

I got an Android app for further development as a zip file. I unzipped and opened this in Jetbrains IDEA File> Open (Folder Address).
IDEA immediately realized that it was an android app.
This did not start.
Later I copied the gradle to C: \ Gradle and added it to the path (works well, see gradle -v in the screenshot).
But I still get errors below. How you could help. Thanks.

Gitlab CI gradle dependency cache

I'm building android on Gitlab CI and downloading dependencies each time is annoying. I tried caching:
$HOME/.gradle/
$HOME/.gradle/caches/
$GRADLE_HOME/caches/
$HOME/.m2/
.gradle/
build/
app/build/
The 26594th iteration of my .gitlab-ci.yml is here. I've installed gradle in my build environment because without caching gradlew downloads it every time, which takes even more time. The image I use for building is here. My CI server startup script can be found here. I assume that, if caching works, I won't see a list of my dependencies downloading on every build.

Turns out another post has the answer to this! There is a work around which is to run a before_script that sets the GRADLE_HOME to the directory of your project, which you can then slurp up with the cache directive.
before_script:
- export GRADLE_USER_HOME=`pwd`/.gradle
cache:
paths:
- .gradle/wrapper
- .gradle/caches
build:
stage: build
script:
- ./gradlew assemble
test:
stage: test
script:
- ./gradlew check
According to Kamil Trzciński
We run the caching outside the build container. So you can cache
absolute paths, but since only /builds and /cache is transferred you
have no-way to cache container-local files.
That means you need to put the gradle files into e.g. the /cache folder
before_script:
- export GRADLE_USER_HOME=cache/.gradle
...
cache:
key: "$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME" #optional: per branch caching, can be omitted
paths:
- $GRADLE_USER_HOME/caches/
- $GRADLE_USER_HOME/wrapper/
- $GRADLE_USER_HOME/build-cache/
The /cache folder will be kept automatically, but I keep the cache config for clarity.
We're running inside docker container on shared runner infrastructure using minio S3 backend to distribute the cache and landed on a solution somewhere along these lines:
variables:
GRADLE_OPTS: "-Dorg.gradle.daemon=false -Dorg.gradle.vfs.watch=false -Dorg.gradle.caching=true"
GRADLE_USER_HOME: .gradle/
default:
image: yourfavoritegradlecontainer:latest
cache: &gradle-cache
key:
files:
- gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties
paths:
- .gradle/caches/
- .gradle/notifications/
- .gradle/wrapper/
policy: pull
build:
stage: build
cache:
<<: *gradle-cache
policy: pull-push
script:
- ./gradlew assemble
artifacts:
paths:
- app/build/outputs/apk
test:
stage: test
script:
- ./gradlew test
The cache gets invalidated, when the gradle-wrapper.properties file is changed and to prevent cache thrashing, only build job is allowed to upload the cache. Of course, you could always add key: "$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME" to invalidate the cache more aggressively.
Seperately we export build artifacts, it supposedly helps, too.
GitLab is taking care of storing and restoring the cache, automatically from inside the container. This even works for a single shared runner.

thanks.
You can try this
Go to this directory

Restart your terminal.
You don't have SDK correctly installed on you computer. (Path or SDK update)
It's write on your error log : You may not have the required environment or OS to build this project
you just need to install ant
sudo apt-get install ant
then do the same as before,its work correctly

Cannot build android project using Android Studio - Gradle 1.7

I'm having lots of problems with Gradle and Android Studio.
Making changes in any resource in the project can randomly give an exception during compilation, this is what i see in Android Studio:
Gradle: Error while executing aapt command
Gradle: Execution failed for task ':App Code:processReleaseResources'.
And this is what i see executing Gradle manually:
"/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk/tools/templates/gradle/wrapper/gradlew" asD
Relying on packaging to define the extension of the main artifact has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 2.0

UPDATE
I tried manually executing aapt, getting the full command from the error message that gradle spits, it failed with:
Segmentation fault: 11
But once in a while it runs correctly and creates the package.
No errors other than "Segmentation fault: 11" are shown.
This is the command i'm trying to execute:
"/Applications/Android Studio.app/sdk/build-tools/android-4.2.2/aapt"
package -vv -f -a --no-crunch

FINAL UPDATE
It finally seems like i solved this issue cleaning up my resources, removing some unused XML and an unused theme. This obviously does not answer this question that i guess is of common interest.
Navigating the web i found that AAPT is know to fail with SegFault11, and often it does not give any information about the real error which can be caused by:
+id in Styles
Duplicated resources / libraries
unknown, like mine
So it would be useful to:
1. Find a way to identify the real cause of this error
2. Wait for an update to AAPT that returns some error message
3. Write a list of possible common causes.
I'm copying here my final update as an answer.

As Dale Cooper suggested, you could also try to run Lint and see if it finds any warning about resources.
I'm trying to find links to users experiencing those other causes (It's been some time since the original question), i will update this answer when i'll find them back.
I just had sort of the same problem, but on the processDebugResources step. After a couple of hours I started to try running diffrent verisons of aapt (/build-tools/[version]/aapt) and it turns out that they give one hell of different error messages. The one I was originally using was 19.0.1 which only gave me Segmentation fault but when i tried out 18.1.1 I was suddenly pointed to a line in a menu.xml which had a resource missmatch. The problem turns out to be that I hade removed the default #string/action_settings because I thought I didn't use it.
Conclusion, trying different versions of aapt may help you find a resource missmatch.
Yeah, I was just struggling with similiar issue. It turned out that I've got some non-finished code in menu.xml file:
<item android:id="#+id/action_search"
android:title="#string/action_search"
android:icon="#drawable/"
app:showAsAction="ifRoom|collapseActionView"
/>
exactly this line was missing drawable reference:
android:icon="#drawable/"
I found it through running Lint (Analyze -> Inspect code) and it was in Android -> Android Resource Validation as Cannot resolve symbol '#drawable/'
I had the same issue and it was a very very hard to locate it.
I want to share the steps I made to locate and solve this problem.
My gradle ouput looks like this:

First of all I switched to 18.1.1 version, it didn't helped a lot. Then I tried to add -v flag and run this command:
/opt/android-sdk/build-tools/18.1.1/aapt package -f --no-crunch -I /opt/android-sdk/platforms/android-19/android.jar -M /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/bundles/debug/AndroidManifest.xml -S /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/res/all/debug -A /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/bundles/debug/assets -m -J /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/source/r/debug -F /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/libs/base-debug.ap_ --debug-mode --non-constant-id --output-text-symbols /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/bundles/debug -v
It helped a little, but didn't give a clue about the problem. Then I tried strace and it helped a lot:
strace -s 100 /opt/android-sdk/build-tools/18.1.1/aapt package -f --no-crunch -I /opt/android-sdk/platforms/android-19/android.jar -M /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/bundles/debug/AndroidManifest.xml -S /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/res/all/debug -A /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/bundles/debug/assets -m -J /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/source/r/debug -F /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/libs/base-debug.ap_ --debug-mode --non-constant-id --output-text-symbols /home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/bundles/debug
In the output of previous command I've found this line:
open("/home/m039/WorkProjects/libs/base/build/res/all/debug/values/values.xml", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 5
In values.xml file I've found all resources, then I started remove tag by tag from the end of the file and execute aapt command above until I found the problem.
My problem was in id resource.
I had this issue after importing the eclipse project.
Issue was from my side. In eclipse, I put a png image in drawable which was actually a jpg image (I just renamed the extension from .jpg to .png).
It was working fine with eclipse but was failing when imported to Android Studio.
Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'.
Crunching Cruncher d.png failed
I just deleted the d.png and added a original png file.
It worked!
If you've have imported your Project from Eclipse, then on the Android studio delete resource menu/main.xml and be sure you not have any invalid string resources.
For some reason the gradle cannot validate the menu/main.xml file.
I removed an accidentally added header in the menu xml:
Remove this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
Leave this:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
So since I had a similar issue I would like to post my solution:
After this error:
failed to capture snapshot of output files for task…
I cleaned my project and it worked again. Why I don't have a clue but it worked. :)
It has happened to me for an Activity declared in the manifest whose title was remove from the string file.
This bug can be Anything related to resources. The best way to find the error is:
Save your code.
Return to the last commit that worked.
Add your resources changes one by one until it fails again.
I have had a similiar issue. I guess it generally happens when there is some incomplete tag or something in the xml or some thing malformed..In my case there issue was with the theme. In design view in android studio in my xml file..i selected a new theme...that way it resolved the issues...hope this helps for all...
I ran into the same problem and issue was with my build directory, currently Android Studio supports directory path less than 100 characters.
Found solution for this:
In root build.gradle
allprojects {
buildDir = "/path/to/build/${rootProject.name}/${project.name}"
}
and docs https://gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/writing_build_scripts.html
run this command in your terminal in respective project.
./gradlew assembleDebug
this will give information about the error.(go line by line to verify)
In my case the error is related to JAR file that i have included in my gradle file.Finally removing the jar file solved the problem.
