Hello.

Is there any possiblity to compile console android app with SDL2? I already have libGLES2.so for android and toolchain that is working on android and compile for android (using CppDroid).


According to "android-project" example the final artifacts is apk file but single executable (ELF) is desired.



My question on stackoverflow:

Regards, Anton.

sorry, libSDL2.so

The link that the guy on SO sent you seems to be what you want. I don't think SDL will be in your toolchain if all you want is an Android console app in an ELF executable.

Not sure you understand the question correctly.
1. I know how to cross-compile SDL using Android NDK.
2. I have already compiled SDL2 and i have libSDL2.so for android (both ARM and x86)
3. I know how to use SDL in general (include header and link agains existing .so - -I, -L, -l).


So i'm able to compile executable which uses SDL2 on android (most likely).


Expected difficulty is that SurfaceFlinger will have to share frameBuffer between android graphics system and OpenGL.

You can compile an executable program. Such as:

LOCAL_PATH:= $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_MODULE:= AT4
LOCAL_ARM_MODE := arm

LOCAL_C_INCLUDES := /opt/SDL2Android/jni/include
LOCAL_SRC_FILES:= pic4d.cpp


LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_OUT_OPTIONAL_EXECUTABLES)



LOCAL_LDLIBS := -llog -lSDL2

include $(BUILD_EXECUTABLE)
