Home Page Forums MAME Non-Windows MAME Support Compile for Android?

Maybe the paths not set up right. Only thing I think of.

We don't know what paths Micko is using to link.

It sure ain't ready though.
Hope he makes a guide at least for people that might want to help.

I just waiting on the package of those tools get upload onto http://mamedev.org/tools/ page. Even a guide. May not happen.

Okay, I managed to get a little further than you guys a few days ago with the assistance of Balrog. I currently suspect the build process requires access to Linux because even after installing the necessary packages into msys64, I still hit some brick walls with path handling.

If you really want to keep trying from Windows, do "pacman -Syu pkg-config" and let me know how it goes.

pacman -Syu pkg-config < Got a ton of errors. It did download some of the files. But not all of it.

I just try it on Windows.

"pacman -Syu pkg-config"
worked for me...

Will try compiling.

...well it failed again, but I didn't notice any huge list of fails or warnings.

It just died deep after compiling stuff, after some time "Archiving liboptional.a..." with this:

"makefile:1069: recipe for target 'android-arm64' failed
make: *** [android-arm64] Error 2"

Whatever error 2 means.

If you're compiling in parallel (using 'make -j<N> ...') the actual error will have been printed earlier. Scroll back to see it or redirect the compile output to some log file. Note that errors are printed to 'stderr' (file descriptor 2), though.

Or re-make without -jX after the error and it'll stop right at the error.

I'll redirect the output.
Compile is slow enough WITH -j option... Don't even want to remember hot it was without it.
Thanks.

Question is: Have you guys tried and succeeded?
