Why aren't my native libraries copied into the apk?












0















I am trying to build an android application with a few native libraries. NDK builds the libraries successfully, and I can see them in ...app.externalNativeBuildcmakedebugarm64-v8asrc<library>lib<library>.a



But when I run the app I get an unsatisfied link error and when I analyze the APK, the native libraries are nowhere to be found; only libc++_shared.so.
Here's the relevant portion of the app's build.gradle:



externalNativeBuild {
cmake {
version "3.10.2"
path "../../../CMakeLists.txt"
}
}

defaultConfig {
externalNativeBuild {
cmake {
arguments "-DENABLE_QT=0", // Don't use QT
"-DENABLE_SDL2=0", // Don't use SDL
"-DANDROID_ARM_NEON=true", // cryptopp requires Neon to work
"-DENABLE_CUBEB=0",
"-DANDROID_STL=c++_shared"

abiFilters 'arm64-v8a'

targets "citra-android"
}
}
}

          If you are asking about this repository, then, your issue lies in src/android/app/src/main/cpp/CMakeLists.txt:



          add_library(citra-android STATIC
          dummy.cpp
          )


          You are supposed to use SHARED instead of STATIC for Gradle to generate a shared object file (.so) instead of a .a file.



          Hope it helps, thanks.
