Hey,
actually I had some time trying out if the library works and I was wrong - it does not work. The library throws many undefined reference errors when I'm not using LOCAL_ALLOW_UNDEFINED_SYMBOLS := true
In the case I'm using it, my program will crash on startup with the error
"cannot locate symbol "_ZN6google8protobuf15UnknownFieldSet13ClearFallbackEv". I'm just loading both static libraries - sodium and zmq - into my project like I normally do with libraries.

Probably someone has another Idea why zeromq does not work with the NDK.

With Regards,
Matthias

Hey Joe,
thank you for your answer.
I've looked through your script and it helped me verifying that I did not miss a flag, a step or something i was not considering yet. Generally it doesn't matter if I compile a static or a shared library - The NDK uses its own linker to link the prebuilt libraries.

Matthias,

I don't usually compile them as static, but you may be able to get some ideas/help from using or looking at the scripts I added under `builds/qt-android`of the zeromq repository. I use these to compile for use with Qt on android, but there's nothing really Qt-specific about them. I only added them because the android scripts didn't work for me. They didn't seem to be
The syntax for the android makefiles are a bit different, but I used the same flags as far I can see. Hence, I never worked with qt before. What exactly didn't work with the android scripts? Did you have problems getting the NDK to work generally, or just the NDK in combination with ZeroMQ? I hope for the first, because it would be a mess if I wouldn't find a way to use ZeroMQ with native code and the NDK where for example the protobuf library compiled on the first try.

With regards,

maintained, but I didn't want to clobber something that someone out there might be relying on.

I don't know a lot about the android toolchain because working with Qt hides a lot of the platform-specific stuff from me, but I learned just enough about the toolchain to make those scripts work and get them into the CI for the repository.

    Hey,
    I'm having issues linking ZeroMQ into my shared library for Android.

    I followed the steps on http://zeromq.org/build:android to build
    the static library. I tried it with the recommended NDKr8 but
    also tried it with the NDK10d. I've build the static library for
    arm with the official ndk-toolchain.
    Afterwards I try to link thoose libraries into my shared library
    to compile a bunch of cpp files.
    I've successfully compiled and linked different static libraries
    into my projects so I'm pretty confused why the linker throws the
    Error when I work with ZeroMQ. I've omitted the other working
    libraries.
    My Android.mk:
    http://pastebin.com/N7gueqre

    My Application.mk:
    http://pastebin.com/nNgCYM2F

    In both code blocks I've ommited everything that is not necessary
    for solving this issue. The error message stays the same. I've
    tried to build the shared library under windows and later under
    debian and ubuntu. The error message is:

    
/tmp/android-ndk-r10d/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.9/../../../../arm-linux-androideabi/bin/ld:
    error: ./zmq/lib    /libzmq.a(libzmq_la-zmq.o): incompatible target
        collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
        make: *** [obj/local/armeabi/libzmqTest.so] Error 1
    (I guess 3 lines are not worth a pastebin)

    I'm working on Windows 8.1 with Android Studio 1.1. I've compiled
    the libraries under Linux Mint 16, a up-to-date ubuntu system and
    an old debian server.
    I build zeromq3-x and zeromq4-x.

    Any idea is welcome and appreciated.

    If this is not the right place to ask such a question, please
    tell me where to ask it instead.

    With regards,
    Matthias
