We can now cross-compile packages for Android. Most autotools-using packages will usually just need a '''./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi''', the rest is pretty straight-forward.

In a temporary build directory we can now build (the install directory will be '''$HOME/sr_android'''):
 
$ '''git clone git://sigrok.org/libsigrok'''
$ '''cd libsigrok'''
$ '''./autogen.sh'''
$ '''./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi --prefix=$HOME/sr_android && make && make install'''

Building from source

Requirements

  • Android NDK

Initial setup

First, download the latest Android NDK and extract it, e.g. in $HOME/android. 

$ cd $HOME
$ mkdir android
$ cd android
$ wget http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r8d-linux-x86.tar.bz2
$ tar xfvj android-ndk-r8d-linux-x86.tar.bz2
$ cd android-ndk-r8d

Now, create a toolchain installation that can be used for cross-compiling for Android (adapt --platform and --arch as needed): 

$ ./build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-9 --install-dir=$HOME/android/android-arm-toolchain --arch=arm

You now have a working toolchain and build environment in $HOME/android/android-arm-toolchain.

Now prepend the toolchain's bin directory to your $PATH: 

$ export PATH=$HOME/android/android-arm-toolchain/bin:$PATH

We can now cross-compile packages for Android. Most autotools-using packages will usually just need a ./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi, the rest is pretty straight-forward.

Cross-compiling

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-util
$ cd sigrok-util/cross-compile/android
$ ./sigrok-cross-android

Please check the README and edit the sigrok-cross-android as needed.
