Module Android.ndk

The Android.ndk module contains the properties and rules to create native libraries for use in Android application packages.

Normally, you will not use this module directly, but instead work with the DynamicLibrary and StaticLibrary items that Qbs provides. Here is what the project file for the "hello-jni" example that comes with the NDK could look like:

import qbs

Project {
    DynamicLibrary {
        name: "hello-jni"
        architectures: ["mips", "x86"]
        files: ["jni/hello-jni.c"]
    }

    AndroidApk {
        name: "HelloJni"
        packageName: "com.example.hellojni"
        Depends { productTypes: ["android.nativelibrary"] }
    }
}
