I was writing some native code on Android using NDK(jni).
I want to turn off the gcc compiler optimization.
For now I add LOCAL_CFLAGS += -O0
to Android.mk, I'm not sure if it is working.
I wrote some code to test the loop overhead like this:
// gettime
for(int i = 0 ; i<10000;i++)
{
}
// gettime
The time difference is too small that I'm sure that the loop has been deleted by the compiler.
I can change i
to a volatile variable, but I want to test if I have turned off the compiler optimization correctly.
How can I know the optimization level that is used by gcc(ndk-build), can I set make
to verbose to get all the messages?
Thanks in advance.
See here how to disable optimizations: Android NDK assert.h problems
Basically what you need to do is to add
APP_OPTIM := debug
to your Application.mk file
