Android App Development include LDAP on MAC OS X

[mkmp29]

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 ?

[SGaist]

Hi,

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

[mkmp29]

@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?

[SGaist]

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.

@SGaist

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()){

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

[SGaist]

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...

[SGaist]

Which one ? The missing symbol or the dlopen error ?

[mkmp29]

@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.

[SGaist]

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

[mkmp29]

@SGaist

this does the the library... I only include the library into my project

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.

[mkmp29]

@sierdzio

yes thats right.

[SGaist]

Then this stackoverflow thread might help.

@mkmp29 I'm trying to integrate openldap libraries with windows, android and iOS applications built using Qt. Can you please help me with the steps for compiling the openldap libraries using GCC compiler? Thanks in advance.
