+ Android NDK, Revision 7 (November 2011) + +
+

This release of the NDK includes new features to support the Android 4.0 platform as well + as many other additions and improvements:

+ +
+
New features
+ +
+
    +
  • Added official NDK APIs for Android 4.0 (API level 14), which adds the following + native features to the platform: + +
      +
    • Added native multimedia API based on the Khronos Group OpenMAX AL™ 1.0.1 + standard. The new <OMXAL/OpenMAXAL.h> and + <OMXAL/OpenMAXAL_Android.h> headers allow applications targeting + API level 14 to perform multimedia output directly from native code by using a new + Android-specific buffer queue interface. For more details, see + docs/openmaxal/index.html and http://www.khronos.org/openmax/.
      • + +
    • Updated the native audio API based on the Khronos Group OpenSL ES 1.0.1™ + standard. With API Level 14, you can now decode compressed audio (e.g. MP3, AAC, + Vorbis) to PCM. For more details, see docs/opensles/index.html and + http://www.khronos.org/opensles/.
      • +
    +
    • + +
  • Added CCache support. To speed up large rebuilds, define the + NDK_CCACHE environment variable to ccache (or the path to + your ccache binary). When declared, the NDK build system automatically + uses CCache when compiling any source file. For example: + 
    +export NDK_CCACHE=ccache
+
    +

    Note: CCache is not included in the NDK release + so you must have it installed prior to using it. For more information about CCache, see + http://ccache.samba.org.

    +
    • + +
  • Added support for setting APP_ABI to all to indicate that + you want to build your NDK modules for all the ABIs supported by your given NDK + release. This means that either one of the following two lines in your + Application.mk are equivalent with this release: + 
    +APP_ABI := all
+APP_ABI := armeabi armeabi-v7a x86
+
    + +

    This also works if you define APP_ABI when calling + ndk-build from the command-line, which is a quick way to check that your + project builds for all supported ABIs without changing the project's + Application.mk file. For example:

    + 
    +ndk-build APP_ABI=all
+
    +
    • + +
  • Added a LOCAL_CPP_FEATURES variable in Android.mk that + allows you to declare which C++ features (RTTI or Exceptions) your module uses. This + ensures that the final linking works correctly if you have prebuilt modules that depend + on these features. See docs/ANDROID-MK.html and + docs/CPLUSPLUS-SUPPORT.html for more details.
    • + +
  • Shortened paths to source and object files that are used in build commands. When + invoking $NDK/ndk-build from your project path, the paths to the source, + object, and binary files that are passed to the build commands are significantly + shorter now, because they are passed relative to the current directory. This is useful + when building projects with a lot of source files, to avoid limits on the maximum + command line length supported by your host operating system. The behavior is unchanged + if you invoke ndk-build from a sub-directory of your project tree, or if + you define NDK_PROJECT_PATH to point to a specific directory.
    • +
+
+ +
Experimental features
+ +
+ You can now build your NDK source files on Windows without Cygwin by calling the + ndk-build.cmd script from the command line from your project path. The + script takes exactly the same arguments as the original ndk-build script. + The Windows NDK package comes with its own prebuilt binaries for GNU Make, Awk and other + tools required by the build. You should not need to install anything else to get a + working build system. + +

Important: ndk-gdb does not work on + Windows, so you still need Cygwin to debug.

+ +

This feature is still experimental, so feel free to try it and report issues on the + public bug database or public forum. All samples and unit tests + shipped with the NDK succesfully compile with this feature.

+
+ +
Important bug fixes
+ +
+
    +
  • Imported shared libraries are now installed by default to the target installation + location (libs/<abi>) if APP_MODULES is not defined in + your Application.mk. For example, if a top-level module foo + imports a module bar, then both libfoo.so and + libbar.so are copied to the install location. Previously, only + libfoo.so was copied, unless you listed bar in your + APP_MODULES too. If you define APP_MODULES explicitly, the + behavior is unchanged.
    • + +
  • ndk-gdb now works correctly for activities with multiple categories in + their MAIN intent filters.
    • + +
  • Static library imports are now properly transitive. For example, if a top-level + module foo imports static library bar that imports static + library zoo, the libfoo.so will now be linked against both + libbar.a and libzoo.a.
    • +
+
+ +
Other changes
+ +
+
    +
  • docs/NATIVE-ACTIVITY.HTML: Fixed typo. The minimum API level should be + 9, not 8 for native activities.
    • + +
  • docs/STABLE-APIS.html: Added missing documentation listing EGL as a + supported stable API, starting from API level 9.
    • + +
  • download-toolchain-sources.sh: Updated to download the toolchain + sources from android.googlesource.com, + which is the new location for the AOSP servers.
    • + +
  • Added a new C++ support runtime named gabi++. More details about it + are available in the updated docs/CPLUSPLUS-SUPPORT.html.
    • + +
  • Added a new C++ support runtime named gnustl_shared that corresponds + to the shared library version of GNU libstdc++ v3 (GPLv3 license). See more info at + docs/CPLUSPLUS-SUPPORT.html
    • + +
  • Added support for RTTI in the STLport C++ runtimes (no support for + exceptions).
    • + +
  • Added support for multiple file extensions in LOCAL_CPP_EXTENSION. For + example, to compile both foo.cpp and bar.cxx as C++ sources, + declare the following: + 
    +LOCAL_CPP_EXTENSION := .cpp .cxx
+
    +
    • + +
  • Removed many unwanted exported symbols from the link-time shared system libraries + provided by the NDK. This ensures that code generated with the standalone toolchain + doesn't risk to accidentally depend on a non-stable ABI symbol (e.g. any libgcc.a + symbol that changes each time the toolchain used to build the platform is changed)
    • + +
  • Refreshed the EGL and OpenGLES Khronos headers to support more extensions. Note + that this does not change the NDK ABIs for the corresponding libraries, + because each extension must be probed at runtime by the client application. + +

    The extensions that are available depend on your actual device and GPU drivers, + not the platform version the device runs on. The header changes simply add new + constants and types to make it easier to use the extensions when they have been + probed with eglGetProcAddress() or glGetProcAddress().
