Android: Compile failure on Windows

[Rahul Das]

Hello All,

I am facing the compilation errors of the form " i686-linux-android-g++: error: CreateProcess: No such file or directory“.

Build system is Qt 5.3.1 for Android on windows vista 32-bit, and Creator 3.1.2

ADT,NDK,ANT are configured with creator and are updated. I am not able to figure out why!
If it is related to Path length "issue ":https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-37113, what is the workaround ?

[topse]

Have you installed the NDK/SDK directly into the c:\ ? Without any subdirectory?

[Rahul Das]

No, its in sub dir. Does it matter ?

[topse]

It should be like that:

c:\android-ndk-r10\build
c:\android-ndk-r10\docs
c:\android-ndk-r10\platforms
...

c:\android-sdk-windows\add-ons
c:\android-sdk-windows\build-tools
c:\android-sdk-windows\extras
...

And yes -- I think it matters...

[Rahul Das]

Thank you topse. Unfortunately, that didn't help. Ended up in same error.

[topse]

You have anything in your project called "CreateProcess"?

[Rahul Das]

No, I afraid its similar to this "issue":http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7651374/arm-linux-androideabi-g-exe-createprocess-no-such-file-or-directory-error

But Even a shorter path didn't help me. :(
