[solved] Qt 5.2.1 android app build error : Files\Android\android-ndk-r9c/platforms/android-9/arch-arm/: No such file or directory

Hi all

Trying for the fisrt time to build and run an app on an android simulator, i'm facing folowing error from the compiler :

error: Files\Android\android-ndk-r9c/platforms/android-9/arch-arm/: No such file or directory

I'm building on windows 7, with mingw. My qt version is 5.2.1. Apparently the compiler is looking for some files in this special path, which is not correct. I did not manage to find where to configure it.

Does anyone have an idea ?
Thanks in advance for your help,
regards
MK

Solved.
just don't install the NDK in a "program file" sub directory. The "space" character is not managed.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Indeed, spaces in path while developing on windows is a recurrent problem. You should avoid them as much as possible or use the 8.3 notation.

Since you have it working now, please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)
