Android NDK cannot find -lGLESv - android

I am getting the following errors when I try to perform an NDK build, can anyone help me please?
I did the setup instruction exactly like what are written in "Beginning Android C++ Game Development". every step except the 9th:
"Click the NativeActivity node in the Application Nodes window and click Add once more. Enter the Name as android.app.lib_name and the Value as the LOCAL_MODULE name, which can be found in the Android.mk file in the project’s jni folder."
Errors :
10:44:23 ** Incremental Build of configuration Default for project
HelloDroid ** "C:\ndk\ndk-build.cmd" all Android NDK:
WARNING:jni/Android.mk:HelloDroid-Test: non-system libraries in linker

make.exe: * [obj/local/armeabi/libHelloDroid-Test.so] Error 1
10:44:23 Build Finished (took 226ms)

I found the problem.
I just needed to edit the Android.mk
it now looks like this:
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := hellodroid
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := hellodroid.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -llog -landroid -lEGL -lGLESv2
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := android_native_app_glue
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module, android/native_app_glue)

As the error states, there is no lib GLESv.
Which version of OpenGL ES are you using, 1 or 2?
The linker flags are -lGLESv1_CM and -lGLESv2, respectively.

Cannot import libpng, libjpeg in ndk android

I forked, Ucrop library for cropping, and made some changes. Now i have to build the ndk to make the changes. But am keep getting this error:
Android NDK: jni/Android.mk: Cannot find module with tag 'libpng' in import path
Android NDK: Are you sure your NDK_MODULE_PATH variable is properly defined ?
Android NDK: The following directories were searched:
Android NDK: jni/Android.mk:15: *** Android NDK: Aborting. . Stop.
The project uses Cimg library.
This is my Android.mk file:
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := ucrop
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := uCrop.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -landroid -llog -lz
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := libpng libjpeg_static
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module,libpng)
$(call import-module,libjpeg)
I tried all solutions that given online. But nothing worked. I tried "Adding libpng in android ndk project" and many answers.
Atlast I made it work. It was hard because I was a beginner in NDK. But i will post how i did it in here, since it may help other beginners.
First I download libpng and libjpeg, and saved it under Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/sources. I saved those under names, libpng and libjpeg respectively.
Then modify Android.mk as below,
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
LOCAL_P := /usr/lib/
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := ucrop
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := uCrop.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -landroid -llog -lz
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := libpng libjpeg9
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module,libpng/jni)
$(call import-module,libjpeg/libjpeg9)
Then set environment path NDK_MODULE_PATH as below,
export NDK_BUILD_PATH=/home/jerin/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/sources
This is important since, during ndk build, it looks for the libraries in this path.
You can compile ndk-build during gradle build by following [this][1].
Right-click on the module you would like to link to your native library, such as the app module, and select Link C++ Project with Gradle from the menu. Then select ndk-build, and give path to Android.mk

How to resolve "Relocations in Generic ELF" during ndk-build?

I'm trying to build a static library using a standalone toolchain for a project that has its own build process, which I then wrap with a C++ library and expose to Android (compiled with ndk-build). However, on the ndk-build step I receive the following error:
➜ jni /Users/chrisfosterelli/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle/ndk-build

➜ jni ls /Users/chrisfosterelli/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle/
This error indicates, as far as I can tell, that I'm trying to mix and match binaries compiled for different architectures. However, from what I can tell the library is the correct architecture:
root#eacbdb1c0e46:/meili/meili2/newtest# ar x libvalhalla_meili.a
root#eacbdb1c0e46:/meili/meili2/newtest# file libvalhalla_meili_la-map_matcher_factory.o

FWIW, these are my current Application.mk,
APP_STL := c++_static
APP_CPPFLAGS := -frtti -std=gnu++11 -D_GLIBCXX_USE_C99
APP_CPPFLAGS += -fexceptions
NDK_TOOLCHAIN_VERSION := clang
APP_LDFLAGS := -latomic
APP_PLATFORM := android-21
APP_ABI := arm64-v8a
and Android.mk,
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
# static library info
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := libvalhalla_meili
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := ../prebuild/libvalhalla_meili.a
LOCAL_EXPORT_C_INCLUDES := ../prebuild/include
include $(PREBUILT_STATIC_LIBRARY)
# wrapper info
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_C_INCLUDES += ../prebuild/include
LOCAL_MODULE := wrapper
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := wrapper.cpp
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := libvalhalla_meili
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
Any ideas how to resolve this? I've tried a number of things but all of them lead to more (more obscure) errors, so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the correct direction!
I discovered the problem, but I wish I had a more insightful answer. Apparently the build process had created two library files. The one that I inspected was, of course, ARM64. However the one that I actually copied to the Android device was x86.
So, the error message was correct and so was the library file, but there was more than one file involved. If you're running into the same problem and pretty sure your library is ARM64, double check that's actually the same file that is being compiled into the ndk build!

Compile C++ native activity with NDK

I create Android native activity project based on "native-activity" project in NDK. In this project android_main function is implemented in main.c file and it compiles and run without any issues.
Now I wants to implement some C++ routines in this file and to do that, as a first step I change main.c file to main.cpp and change LOCAL_SRC_FILES entry in Android.mk to main.cpp.
After this change I got following error at the compilation:
make.exe: *** No rule to make target `jni/main.c', needed by `obj/local/arm64-v8a/objs/native-activity/main.o'. Stop.
Also Android.mk file in this project contain following entries:
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := native-activity
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := main.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -llog -landroid -lEGL -lGLESv1_CM -lGLESv2
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := android_native_app_glue
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module,android/native_app_glue)
What was the possible cause for this error?
Delete your obj directory from workspace and rebuild. Sometimes eclipse clean is not working and failed to delete obj files.

NDK unable to find my module in the NDK_MODULE_PATH - android-ndk-profiler

I am trying to use android-ndk-profiler - https://github.com/richq/android-ndk-profiler
As described in the usage document https://github.com/richq/android-ndk-profiler/blob/master/docs/Usage.md
I unzipped the zip file to $HOME/Documents/Dev
My Android.mk looks like this
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := ndkbasics
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := ndkbasics.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -llog
# compile with profiling
LOCAL_CFLAGS := -pg
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := android-ndk-profiler
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
# at the end of Android.mk
$(call import-module,android-ndk-profiler)
When trying to build using the command
ndk-build NDK_MODULE_PATH=$HOME/Documents/Dev/
I get the error
Android NDK: /Users/hanantha/Documents/Dev/projects/workspaceWeeklyPreso/NdkProfileMethods/jni/Android.mk: Cannot find module with tag 'android-ndk-profiler' in import path
Android NDK: Are you sure your NDK_MODULE_PATH variable is properly defined ?
Android NDK: The following directories were searched:
Android NDK:
/Users/hanantha/Documents/Dev/projects/workspaceWeeklyPreso/NdkProfileMethods/jni/Android.mk:16: *** Android NDK: Aborting. . Stop.
Additional points
I have tried setting NDK_MODULE_PATH in my bash_profile
ndk version r10d
Ran the make file in the unzipped folder android-ndk-profiler
It is strange that ndk says the directories that it has searched is empty. What could be going wrong?
I think you have done almost correct process need to change at one place as follow
# at the end of Android.mk
$(call import-module,android-ndk-profiler/jni)
Adding jni in import-module will solve your problem because it's working for me.

Not able to build Android NDK project fatal error: android/configuration.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated

I am building a complete native app in using Android NDK, when I try to build the app I am getting the following error:
D:/Softwares/android-ndk-r9c/sources/android/native_app_glue/android_native_app_glue.h:25:35: fatal error: android/configuration.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.
I am not getting why this error is coming. I have created an Android.mk file with following content
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := mynativeactivity
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := Log.cpp Main.cpp EventLoop.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -llog -landroid
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := android_native_app_glue
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module,android/native_app_glue)
Also, in the project properties I have added following Paths & Symbols
D:/Softwares/android-ndk-r9c/platforms/android-9/arch-arm/usr/include
D:/Softwares/android-ndk-r9c/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/windows-x86_64/lib/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.8/include
D:/Softwares/android-ndk-r9c/sources/android/native_app_glue
Can anyone suggest what am I doing wrong ?
LOCAL_LDLIBS := -landroid is the problem.
The system is expecting the configuration.h file, as simple as that.
Why do you mean by project properties ? in eclipse ? .
ndk-build would not pick your ecplise project properties.
Please add Application.mk file and mention the APP_PLATFORM := android-9 ( not sure if it should solve the problem).Otherwise , add the include path LOCAL_C_INCLUDES in your android.mk file.
