    ... 15 more

My structure project looks like this

TestJni2Project

I added my build.gradle line:

   compile files('libs/armeabi/libhello-jni.so')

But this don't helped. I read Gradle and Android Gradle plugin, but I don't find information about working with jni folder

I am thinking what it file dependencies, but it isn't working

My hello-jni.c file includ

jstring  Java_com_example_testjni2_MainActivity_stringFromJNI (JNIEnv *env, jobject thiz){
    return (*env)->NewStringUTF(env, "Hello from JNI !");
  }

My MainActivity file include

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    static {
        System.loadLibrary("hello-jni");
    }
    public native String  stringFromJNI();
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        String text = stringFromJNI();
        Log.i("MainActivity", text);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

}

My Android.mk file containts

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_MODULE    := hello-jni
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := hello-jni.c

include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)

Tell me, please, where I could make a mistake.

Android Studio 0.1.7 OS - Windows 7 x64


While I believe SJoshi (oracle guy) has the most complete answer, the SWIG project is a special case, interesting and useful one, at that, but not generalized for the majority of projects that have done well with the standard SDK ant based projects + NDK. We all would like to be using Android studio now most likely, or want a more CI friendly build toolchain for mobile, which gradle theoretically offers.
