I am trying to get a basic environment set up for Android NDK development on Ubuntu 12 and I cannot get this error to go away. My system is already set up for regular Android development with the SDK. I've installed the eclipse C/C++ development tools.
My .bashrc has these lines at the bottom:
NDK_HOME=~/android-ndk-r9c
export NDK_HOME
export PATH=/home/steve/android-ndk-r9c:${PATH}
export NDK_PATH=/home/steve/android-ndk-r9c
In my Eclipse properties, my NDK location in Android->NDK is set to /home/steve/android-ndk-r9c. My Android.mk looks as follows:
LOCAL_PATH:= $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := test
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := example.c
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
I tried using build-ndk on the command line. I now have in my project directory a file obj/local/armeabi/libtest.so, but it's not doing me any good.
For what it's worth, no project works, not even the NDK sample projects (such as HelloJni). What can I do to compile a basic JNI application?
EDIT: This is on an actual device. The ndk-build output of hello-jni is:

The right way of loading the shared library is
static {
System.loadLibrary("test");
}
The library name is taken from the LOCAL_MODULE
definition of your Android.mk file (or from the Application.mk file, if you decide to use it). In your case, you are naming your module test. The ndk-build
generates the shared library libtest.so
.
Pay attention that you do not need to include the lib- prefix in the System.loadLibrary()
call.
