First I thought libflutter.so is coming from flutter engine.
But when I compile it by myself it seems not.
Since Flutter is an open source project, there might be a way to compile my own libflutter.so. Is there any way I can compile my own libflutter.so?
I personally haven't tried the Android embedder build but obviously libflutter.so is an output of building the engine's //shell/platform/android:flutter_shell_native target.
https://github.com/flutter/engine/blob/flutter-2.5-candidate.8/shell/platform/android/BUILD.gn#L41
The combination of shared_library and output_name = "flutter" in GN file means that libflutter.so is generated as a result of build. Here's the dependency graph: android -> flutter_jar_zip -> android_jar -> flutter_shell_native.

I am writing uber h3 plugin for flutter. I have working source code but I have problems with creating package more precisely I have problems to bundle libh3.so
Quick overview:
there is uber h3 c source code which is downloaded by. download_deps.sh
then android/build.gradle has build commands
externalNativeBuild {
cmake {
path "../ios/CMakeLists.txt"
}
}
then example/lib/main.dart has some initialization code.
initializeH3((String name) => Platform.isAndroid
? DynamicLibrary.open("lib${name}.so")
: DynamicLibrary.process());
but when I try to build it library file can not be found.
-I tried different locations.
It seems that library native .so is not bundled into application
But I don't konw why
According to tutorial https://flutter.dev/docs/development/platform-integration/c-interop
it should be bundled.
Here is the source code https://github.com/fmatuszewski/h3
I have managed to get this running, the pubspec.yaml was incorrectly formatted and required:
flutter:
plugin:
platforms:
android:
package: com.example.h3
pluginClass: H3Plugin
ios:
pluginClass: H3Plugin
Adding in at the end.
In doing this the package was properly attached.
libh3.so needs to be added into android/src/main/jniLibs to naturally be attached however I also moved the code:
final DynamicLibrary h3 = Platform.isAndroid
? DynamicLibrary.open("libh3.so")
: DynamicLibrary.process();
Back into h3.dart and removed main.dart to get this to run.
I think these were the main issues to get the code running. I had issues working out what was wrong as I am new to plugins - so it was a long process to sit and work out all the ins and outs. In doing this I ended up reworking all of the code to understand what was going on. If none of these points work or you wants eyes on the working code let me know and I can upload it to Github.
This might be a duplicate of this question. But it has no answer and I will give some details here.
I have created a module with File->New Module->Android Library inside my Flutter plugin's android project. And now I have a structure like below:
|-my_plugin
|-android
|-settings.gradle
|-build.gradle
|-mylibrary
|-build.gradle
/android/settings.gradle:
rootProject.name = 'my_plugin'
include ':mylibrary'
/android/build.gradle:
...
dependencies {
implementation project(':mylibrary')
}
When I build example plugin project (which is automatically created by Flutter CLI) with flutter build apk or flutter run, I get this error:
Project with path ':mylibrary' could not be found in project ':my_plugin'.
Any suggestions?
For those who are still looking for a solution. You can try this.
Instead of putting the below code in the plugin setting.gradle, place it in example/android/settings.gradle
include ':mylibrary'

Update Java SdK
Update Android SdK
Check target in menifest file and Unity editor. Both should be same.
Remove duplicate .jar under plugins folder if there are any.
You are using a library somewhere in your code (possibly something for GooglePlay?). The library has a manifest.xml file that is likely located in a folder called plugin or one of its subfolders.
The manifest is the file used by android to describe the app: how it starts, what permissions it has, and so on.
Any android project in unity will include a default manifest.xml file. This file is edited by unity with some info relative to you game (the name, and the target version, are part of it).
Now, the libraries you include in your project might need different options and values in the manifest, so Unity libraries for android usually come with another manifest.xml file. This will will be automatically merged with the default one by unity at build time.
Usually, it goes well, the additional line in the manifest from the library get added to the default manifest.
But in your case, there is a conflict between these manifests. The target version is specified both in the library and in your project. So unity can't resolve it.
To fix this, use a target version for your project that is the same or higher than the one of the library. Edit your target version under player settings
I have a Xamarin.Forms project which needs a QR code scanner. I found ZXing Scanner which seems to be a well established library for such purposes.
I installed it in the corresponding android project which worked without errors. When I wanted to build the app, Resource.Designer.cs was adjusted with the following lines:
global::ZXing.Mobile.Resource.Id.contentFrame = global::my.project.Droid.Resource.Id.contentFrame;
global::ZXing.Mobile.Resource.Layout.zxingscanneractivitylayout = global::my.project.Droid.Resource.Layout.zxingscanneractivitylayout;
global::ZXing.Mobile.Resource.Layout.zxingscannerfragmentlayout = global::my.project.Droid.Resource.Layout.zxingscannerfragmentlayout;
The problem is that I as well get the following errors:
'my.project.Droid.Resource.Id' does not contain a definition for 'contentFrame'
'my.project.Droid.Resource.Layout' does not contain a definition for 'zxingscanneractivitylayout'
'my.project.Droid.Resource.Layout' does not contain a definition for 'zxingscannerfragmentlayout'
I installed ZXing using NuGet but I as well tried to add the dlls manually. I get the same errors. Can anyone help me how to fix this?
Thank you in advance.
It's quite possible that your Resource.Designer.cs is not updating correctly:
Clean Project Build
Remove ZXing package.
Clean Project Build
Add ZXing package
Clean and Build Project once again

I have just setup Android Studio and started a simple application. Well started is an over statement, I got stuck on first few lines and am unable to import JFrame into android studio.
I have the latest SDK installed aling with LibGDX. I am still not able to setup JFrame. I have searched the net/youtube and no solutions have been found.
I can see the javax and swing in my external libraries but just cannot import.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong or not doing?
I am not looking for a "how to tutorial", I just a pointer where I should go hunting for the answer.
wow, not huge amount of response.
Please advise if I have asked a stupid question or difficult question.
public hungryDog() {
JFrame jframe = new JFrame();
Timer timer = new Timer(20, this);
renderer = new Renderer();
rand = new Random();
jframe.add(renderer);
jframe.setTitle("Hungry Dog");
jframe.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
jframe.setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
jframe.addMouseListener(this);
jframe.addKeyListener(this);
jframe.setResizable(false);
jframe.setVisible(true);
dog = new Rectangle(WIDTH / 2 - 10, HEIGHT / 2 - 10, 20, 20);
columns = new ArrayList<Rectangle>();
addColumn(true);
addColumn(true);

You can't use Swing on Android. Android has its own UI framework which is different, and Swing isn't supported. To see what Java APIs are supported on Android look at the API docs at http://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html
I used to have the same problem; here's how to solve it.
You see, we were trying to use swing lib in a totally wrong context, that is, within an Android app. As Scott Barta pointed out, Android has its own mechanisms for doing what we wanted to achieve and that's why IntelliJ didn't let us import anything that would interfere with Android API.
Hence, do NOT use Android app when, say, simply learning how to code in Java or, on a more advanced level, when testing/debugging your algorithms. Instead, build a standalone Java program (yes, in Android Studio). This very topic is covered here: Can Android Studio be used to run standard Java projects? , "Tested on Android Studio 0.8.6 - 1.0.2" by idunnololz). A few clarifying remarks to this solution:
1) wnen preparing your configuration (Run | Edit Configurations...), use your new Java module name and its main class in the appropriate fields.
2) before clicking Run make sure you selected same configuration.
Incidentally, there indeed IS a way to import swing library into any Android app: based on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHEvI_G6UtI. Specifically, add a new line to build.gradle file for your Module:app:
compile files ('<path_to_your_jdk's_rt.jar>')
Like this:
compile files ('C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_31/jre/lib/rt.jar')
Note single quotes and forward slashes. Then click Sync Gradle icon and enjoy the view.
In our particular case, however, the program won't run. The code itself will be clean, there'll be no errors; with swing lib well in place and connected, IntelliJ won't suspect a thing; the project WILL compile... but then we'll get a runtime error. Now your know why. On the other hand, this method works like magic when we do not interfere with Android API --- which we shouldn't in the first place.
That's all there is to it.
Yes you can. As addition to Igor's answer here are the steps:
Create new Android Studio project: File -> New -> New Project -> Phone and Tablet -> Add No Activity, select Java (not Kotlin) as language obviously.
Add new Java module: File -> New -> New Module -> Java Library
Remove Android module: File -> Project Structure -> Modules -> app, click - button.
NOTE: step 5 is probably not needed. Try without it first.
Edit build.gradle of your java module, and add in dependencies implementation fileTree pointing to the JRE you need.
Example of build.gradle:
apply plugin: 'java-library'
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
implementation fileTree ('/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/rt.jar')
}
sourceCompatibility = "6"
targetCompatibility = "6"
Now code completion works and you can even run the app:
Click on Add Configuration: near run button
Click on + -> Application
Select your Main Class
At Use classpath of module: select your java module there (not project's)
