I managed to build for android by using cmake and then going into SampleBrowserNDK folder and issue a ndk-build.

However, after ndk-build clean, I can't build it again as I run into a lot of undefined references. Any idea how to resolve these? Extracted example:

/Users/cww/Documents/workspace/Ogre/OgreMercurial_v1.9/AndroidDependencies/lib/armeabi/libfreetype.a(ftgzip.c.o): In function `inflate.constprop.1':
ftgzip.c:(.text.inflate.constprop.1+0x42): undefined reference to `__gnu_thumb1_case_uhi'
ftgzip.c:(.text.inflate.constprop.1+0x2e8): undefined reference to `__gnu_thumb1_case_uhi'
ftgzip.c:(.text.inflate.constprop.1+0x85c): undefined reference to `__gnu_thumb1_case_uhi'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [obj/local/armeabi/libOgreSampleBrowser.so] Error 1

Thanks in advance for any help.
PS: I am using a Mac.

EDIT: It was an error on my configuration. There was an old entry in my PATH that was pointing to r8 that my eyes failed to detect and I recently added a newer entry pointing to r8c. Hence when I run ndk-build in command line it was calling the r8 version but my Orgre Android was compiled using r8c.

Thanks for the help.

hello people,
I can't make it work...
I'm using this guide: http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-ind ... on=Android
Visual studio express 2008, Windows XP
Ogre unstable 1.9 (sinbad-ogre-v1-9-adfa6903083a)
ndk version: android-ndk-r8
cmake version: 2.8
ant: 1.8.4
jdk: 6.0_32 (irrelevant here)

The problem I have is that fails when linking SampleBrowser, also I can't compile dependencies if I do step 6 (build deps) I have this error:

Code: Select all

C:\luis\auxi\apis\sinbad-ogre-v1-9-adfa6903083a\build>cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=..\cmake\android.toolchain.cmake -DAN

ke
CMake Error: CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage
CMake Error: CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage

I'm doing it inside "build" directory because cmake directory doesn't exists at the same level than sinbad-ogre-v1-9-adfa6903083a (the path in the comand is "..\cmake\android.toolchain.cmake"). Perhaps this guide is wrong, or android.toolchain.cmake file for deps is missing in the repository/zips ?

So, I skiped that step and tried step 7 with both options, armeabi and armeabi v7 in the first option (armeabi) after compiling I get this error:

and with armeabi v7 I get:

it works! thank you ;)
I can't believe I'm seeing Ogre in my tablet....

The only thing it isn't working in the wiki is the step 6 (compiling deps). The file "..\cmake\android.toolchain.cmake" is missing...

For compiling the deps you have to checkout the deps repo so it wont work with ogre source tree.
Glad you got it working.

oh great then, it's been a long time not compiling nor using Ogre ;)
Thanks for your support, I'm glad you're now an ogre team member & Ogre have (will have) an official support for android, that's one of the reasons I'm trying to convice people at work to use this great engine!

Im trying to initialize Ogre in my android app. I only have the emulator to use for the time being. I have created a new class that inherits from the devtech NVGLES2Activity. Overridden all the required functions.

Code: Select all

extern "C" {

jboolean Java_com_example_testapp_NativeLaunch_initOgre(JNIEnv* env, jobject thiz)
{
			Ogre::StaticPluginLoader* mStaticPluginLoader;
			Ogre::Root* mRoot = OGRE_NEW Ogre::Root();
			mStaticPluginLoader = OGRE_NEW Ogre::StaticPluginLoader();
			mStaticPluginLoader->load();

			mRoot->initialise(false);
	};
}
And heres the logcat output for the app from start to the native launch. It looks like everything goes well. OgreMain and RenderSystem_GLES2Static gets loaded.
**Last 6 lines of log are the problem.

I've followed the quick guide to the letter using both the cmake gui and the command line version but i still can't seem to get it to work.

For the android toolchain file, should i be using the one provided in the cmake folder in the ogre folder?

I've provided the error log at the bottom.

Does anyone have a more concrete step by step guide they can help me with?

Thank you :oops:

For some reason the build progress seems to run into errors with regards to the portion where its trying to find cpu-features.
Did anyone else run into the same problem? I've listed the error below.

Thank you for all the help thats been provided so far but i'm still getting the same error. I've included a screenshot below as to my cmake settings.
I've downloaded the files provided in the links on the wiki page. I've tried both Android ABI options, v7a and armeabi. The target API i've tested building for both 9 and 14.

I've even checked the MD5 hash tags to see if my files were corruputed in anyway while downloading them. It still throws an error at the cpu features header seemingly unable to find the file.

I've tried searching the forums for threads with similar issues but was unsuccessful.

This is the error i've gotten:
[ 0%] Building CXX object OgreMain/CMakeFiles/OgreMain.dir/src/OgrePlatformInfo
rmation.cpp.o
..\..\OgreMain\src\OgrePlatformInformation.cpp:44:34: error: cpu-features.h: No such file or directory

Thanks a lot Wolfmanfx!

This is great and eases a lot my job of porting a Windows/Mogre based game to Android.
When building for Android it's always nice being able to work with managed languages, namely Java (with the Dalvik VM) or C# (using Mono For Android). In my case I'm trying MonoDroid out but you know it doesn't get along with Mogre :(

I guess you have worked on using SWIG generated P/INVOKE wrappers before (I read it somewhere in an old post) Have you tried it in Android too?
I'm about to start creating a swig-powered wrapper for v1.8.1 and I want to try it in Android. If you could also share some of your experience with swig (possibly scripts and .i files) it would be great!!

I was also wondering if it wouldn't be a nice occasion to resurrect OgreDotNet? With some support I'd be willing to do so - I know this last subject belongs to another forum sorry :P

Hi,

I'm having the same problem as luis: could not find toolchain file - ..\cmake\toolchain\android.toolchain.cmake

But unlike luis I get it for both step 6 & 7. And I actually can't find android.toolchain.cmake on my machine, does it come with NDK r8c?

thanks!
