This directory contains an Android NDK import module for NORM, which builds a shared library, and the JNI bindings. Using NORM in your pure Java Android Application ------------------------------------------------ 1. First, update the library project to point to your Android SDK: android update lib-project --target --path /path/to/norm/makefiles/android android update lib-project --target --path /path/to/protolib/makefiles/android Use "android list targets" to see the ids of the SDK targets you have installed. 2. Add a "jni/Application.mk" in the root of your project to reference NORM: * You must at least set "APP_MODULES := norm-jni" * You should set "APP_BUILD_SCRIPT := /path/to/norm/makefiles/android/jni/Android.mk" * You should also set "NDK_MODULE_PATH" to point to the base norm directory so that the NDK can find protolib. See the example. Example: LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir) APP_MODULES := mil_navy_nrl_norm APP_ABI := all APP_BUILD_SCRIPT := $(LOCAL_PATH)/../library/norm/makefiles/android/jni/Android.mk NDK_MODULE_PATH := $(LOCAL_PATH)../library/norm/ 3. Reference the NORM Android library project in your "project.properties" file. Add the following: android.library.reference.1=/path/to/norm/makefiles/android Now, you should be able to run "ndk-build" in your root project directory to build the shared libraries, and run "ant debug" to build your APK. Using NORM in your C/C++/Java Android Application ------------------------------------------------- 1. Add a "jni/Application.mk" with your C/C++ code specified. 2. Reference the NORM Android project as an NDK Import Module. See "IMPORT-MODULE.html" in the NDK docs. Put something like the following at the bottom of your "Android.mk" $(call import-module,norm/makefiles/android/jni) This is relative to the "NDK_MODULE_PATH" variable that must be defined in "Application.mk".
