    I compiled the framework with this script:

    #!/bin/bash

#adjust
export NDK_LOCATION="/Users/user123/Library/Android/sdk"

export ANDROID_NDK_HOME="$NDK_LOCATION/ndk-bundle"
export CC="arm-linux-androideabi-gcc"
export CXX="arm-linux-androideabi-g++"
export RANLIB="arm-linux-androideabi-ranlib"
export LD="arm-linux-androideabi-ld"
export AR="arm-linux-androideabi-ar"
export CROSS_COMPILE="arm-linux-androideabi"
#define android api
export ANDROID_API=16
export CFLAGS="-D__ANDROID_API__=$ANDROID_API"

#install toolchain
${ANDROID_NDK_HOME}/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-${ANDROID_API} --install-dir=${ANDROID_NDK_HOME}/android-toolchain

export PATH="$PATH:$ANDROID_NDK_HOME/android-toolchain/bin"
export LIB_DIR="`pwd`/lib"
export LDAP_OUTPUT_DIR="${LIB_DIR}/compiled/OpenLDAP"

#download lib
#git clone https://github.com/openldap/openldap.git
cd "$LIB_DIR/openldap"

./configure --host=${CROSS_COMPILE} --prefix="${LDAP_OUTPUT_DIR}" --with-yielding_select=yes

make depend
make && make install

    But it still don't work, it throws errors that functions are not in the declared scope

    /Edit: solved it, I used deprecated functionality of the library that can be enabled over the macro LDAP_DEPRECATED

    What errors and where?

    This line looks fishy to me: --host=${CROSS_COMPILE}

    The host is your host machine (your Mac), so it should rather be something like x86_64, and not the ARM architecture. But maybe LDAP is using some other convention, I don't know.

    My error is:

    :-1: error: error: cannot find -lldap

    I think there is mistake in the .pro file:

    The Filestructure is:

    - *.pro
- lib
  - compiled
    - OpenLDAP
       - lib
       - include 
       - *
- other files

    in the lib directory are these files:

    liblber-2-devel.so.0       libldap.la
liblber-2-devel.so.0.0.0   libldap.so
liblber.a                  libldap_r-2-devel.so.0
liblber.la                 libldap_r-2-devel.so.0.0.0
liblber.so                 libldap_r.a
libldap-2-devel.so.0       libldap_r.la
libldap-2-devel.so.0.0.0   libldap_r.so
libldap.a

    @mkmp29 said in Android App Development include LDAP on MAC OS X:

    -L lib/compiled/OpenLDAP/lib -lldap

    There should be no space between '-L' and your library search path.

    Didn't work either. I just get the message for multiple lib function:

    Looks like the library is compiled wrong ?

    Hi,

    Did you check the x86 vs x86_64 architecture for your library ?

    @SGaist
    I can only compile the library for the arm architecture. Other architecture fail because they can't find libraries...

    Is there a better solution than compile the library for every architecture of the enddevice?

    No there's not.

    The only alternative is to check whether your targets already have them available in their root filesystem and re-use them.

    I can compile the application and push it to the virtual device. But i get the error:

    W System.err: Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: library "liblber-2-devel.so.0" not found

    This file is contained in the lib folder of my cross compiled library. I read a little bit and tried to load the library during runtime with the QT Object: QLibrary and the function load. But it didnt work.

    this is the part of my .pro file

    Library loading at the beginning of the main method.

        QLibrary ldap("ldap");
    QLibrary ldap_r("ldap_r");
    QLibrary lber("lber");

    if(!ldap.load() || !lber.load() || !ldap_r.load()){
        qDebug() << "Failed loading library";
    }

    The libraries that are contained in the lib folder are listed above

    IIRC, android doesn't support library versioning so ensure that you don't have a symbolic link copied to your package but a copy of the library.

    I removed the links from the libraries, deleted the links and renamed the lib to its original name, but the error still appears...

    Which one ? The missing symbol or the dlopen error ?

    @SGaist

    the dlopen error.

    I also tried to copy the versioned libs into the same folder in the android libs directory. But it didn't work.

    Why are you dlopening the library on Android rather than linking to it ?

    Can you rephrase that please ? I don't understand what it means at all.

    If I get it right, he means that he links the LDAP library. That library, however, uses dlopen internally to access yet another library.
