how to make native activity to apk

 

as far as native-activity sample of android

 

cd native-activity

1. build so library

ndk-build

2. generate build.xml

android update project -p . -t android-19

3. package into apk with ant

ant release

or

ant debug

 

Additionally, the following steps are optional.

Above, the signature key is required for ant release, otherwise it will generate apk without signature.

1. generate ant.properties file

touch ant.properties

2. edit ant.properties file

key.store=<keystore>
key.alias=<key>
key.store.password=<keystore pwd>
key.alias.password=<key pwd>

 

 

for example:

chapter 5, NativeInputs

 

cd NativeInputs

 

1. add application.mk in jni directory

APP_PLATFORM := android-19

2. Android.mk in jni directory

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)

include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_MODULE    := NativeInputs
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := NativeInputs.cpp
LOCAL_LDLIBS    := -llog -landroid
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := android_native_app_glue

include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
$(call import-module,android/native_app_glue)

 

3.  AndroidManifest.xml

 

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="cookbook.chapter5.nativeinputs"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0">

            android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden">
                <meta-data android:name="android.app.lib_name"
                android:value="NativeInputs" />
