I need to build a static library from the latest libpcap and "include" it in a C source code to be cross-compiled for an ARM-v7-a architecture (Nexus One).
I've been trying for days, hope someone could give me an hint.
And I can't use neither NDK nor Java-wrapper functions. It needs to be like:
$ -o prog prog.c [-options] and later I'll be able to push the executable via adb.
I've tried with CodeSourcery and arm-linux-gnueabi installed via apt-get (i'm on Kubuntu Linux), nothing worked properly.
The most I've reached to achieve is a stupid simply helloworld file through:
arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc -static -o prog prog.c
which is executed under my smartphone.
Do you have any clue about I can get a more complex program including libpcap? I think it should deal with .a or .so files in libpcap directory but I really don't figure it out... Thanks in advance
EDIT - SOLVED: Just as auselen said, I've tried with NDK stand-alone toolchain and I've succeded.
This is what I've done, in case somebody would have my same issues:
1) Download Android SDK and NDK (the latter is at r8d version at this time)
2) Go into NDK folder and type
cd build/tools
make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-3 --install-dir=$HOME/new_toolchain --ndk-dir=YOUR_NDK_PATH
cd $HOME/new_toolchain
(I've put my helloworld.c file in this folder but of course you can add PATH into your .bashrc file for more efficiency)
bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc helloworld.c -o helloworld
3)push it into your device through adb.
All is working now :) thanks again
