What's the problem? android compile error
-
BUMP!
Anyone?!?
I've got the same frustrating problem! I can create apps using Android Studio, I can create desktop QT apps.... but everything I try to compile a QT Android app fails with a similar failure:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception. * What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':compileDebugAidl'. > java.io.IOException: com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: Error while executing process D:\Android-SDK\build-tools\29.0.0-rc1\aidl.exe with arguments {-pD:\Android-SDK\platforms\android-22\framework.aidl -oD:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.12.2\gui\build-analogclock-Android_for_x86_Clang_Qt_5_12_2_for_Android_x86-Debug\android-build\build\generated\source\aidl\debug -ID:\Qt\5.12.2\android_x86\src\android\java\src -ID:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.12.2\gui\build-analogclock-Android_for_x86_Clang_Qt_5_12_2_for_Android_x86-Debug\android-build\src -ID:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.12.2\gui\build-analogclock-Android_for_x86_Clang_Qt_5_12_2_for_Android_x86-Debug\android-build\src\debug\aidl -ID:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.12.2\gui\build-analogclock-Android_for_x86_Clang_Qt_5_12_2_for_Android_x86-Debug\android-build\aidl -dC:\Users\pc\AppData\Local\Temp\aidl8825622650137816416.d D:\Qt\5.12.2\android_x86\src\android\java\src\org\kde\necessitas\ministro\IMinistro.aidl} * Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace.

It would be great to get this working!

Ok, finally got mine to work. What a %@$# PITA... I really dislike windows, but it's where I chosen do android dev unfortunately.
So... here's what I did... (it may have just been one of these that fixed the issue, but I'm too tired to go back and test them individually)
1st: correct some invalid variables in QT's build settings/build environment (i.e. wrong slash was / instead of \)... AND add some. Specifically:
ANDROID_HOME = D:\Android-SDK ANDROID_SDK_ROOT = D:\Android-SDK GRADLE_USER_HOME = C:\Users\pc\.gradle JAVA_HOME = D:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_201(obviously these need to be upd for your install directories .i.e usually on C: drive)
Note: I specified these in Windows env settings, but it seems like they need to be specifically set in QT's env overrides.
2nd: remove the 29.0.0RC1 from Android SDK build-tools via Android Studio SDK manager. Apply.
Select 'show package details' to then be able to select the 28.0.3 version. Apply.3rd: go into theQT project/app's folder and edit the gradle.properties file... change the line to:
androidBuildToolsVersion=28.0.3Finally: you should probably should close and reopen QT and the project.
Build/deploy should now (hopefully/finally) work! -

Hi Jay_M,
Thanks for the solution! Now I can take the jump to Qt5.12.3 with my Android project
I tested your workarounds and the only thing you have to do is step 3:
3rd: go into theQT project/app's folder and edit the gradle.properties file... change the line to: androidBuildToolsVersion=28.0.3I tested on some test applications and also on a real world application
You saved me a lot of time! Now you can save some time for your other projects with less tweaking ;-)Eddy

I have a similar problem. I followed the instructions of the tutorial for android and opened the analog clock example to build, deploy and start the app in the Android emulator.
I use Qt Creator for macOS with the newest suggested Qt versuin. I get following build errors:
/Users/burks/Library/Android/android-ndk-r20/toolchains/x86-4.9/prebuilt/darwin-x86_64/lib/gcc/i686-linux-android/4.9.x/../../../../i686-linux-android/bin/ld: error: cannot find -lc++ clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make: *** [libshadereffects.so] Error 1Some ideas, how to make a Qt app for Android running?

Hi,
I have exactly the same issue. Google Play Console requires adaptation for android-28 and arm64-v8a
from August 19, so QT developers cannot use r16b anymore and I have used NDK r20 instead. Unfortunatelly I received -lc++ library linking problem. I am not sure why, because the library is available in the expected path, and objdump returns correct armv7 architecture.To solve the issue with linking I just used android-ndk-19c version. But note, that the 19c contains some bug with support of spaces in the QRC paths, so for example I had to remove this from the QRC:
make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/project/fonts/customfont/pobrano z /project/fonts/customfont/koikj.txt', needed by 'qrc_qml.cpp'. Stop -
The error: cannot find -lc++ using ndk r20 can be solved like this:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/264903/9/mkspecs/android-clang/qmake.conf#34For example to compile for android armv7 ndk r20, locate the file:
C:\Qt\5.13.0\android_armv7\mkspecs\android-clang\qmake.conf

However I get many warnings in the log. Maybe the example projects are not optimized for Android. I will check the tutorial a hallo world project.

Ok, finally got mine to work. What a %@$# PITA... I really dislike windows, but it's where I chosen do android dev unfortunately.
So... here's what I did... (it may have just been one of these that fixed the issue, but I'm too tired to go back and test them individually)
1st: correct some invalid variables in QT's build settings/build environment (i.e. wrong slash was / instead of \)... AND add some. Specifically:
ANDROID_HOME = D:\Android-SDK ANDROID_SDK_ROOT = D:\Android-SDK GRADLE_USER_HOME = C:\Users\pc\.gradle JAVA_HOME = D:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_201(obviously these need to be upd for your install directories .i.e usually on C: drive)
Note: I specified these in Windows env settings, but it seems like they need to be specifically set in QT's env overrides.
2nd: remove the 29.0.0RC1 from Android SDK build-tools via Android Studio SDK manager. Apply.
Select 'show package details' to then be able to select the 28.0.3 version. Apply.3rd: go into theQT project/app's folder and edit the gradle.properties file... change the line to:
