Hi,
I am not able to download glob.c and glob.h files.
Links provided are not working.Can u please provide the files.
Thanks in advance.

I massaged a FreeBSD glob.c/glob.h into something that compiles onto

files.)

Hi,
I have adopted a version of glob.h and glob.c from FreeBSD to compile for
Android. You can find them in my github:
https://github.com/white-gecko/TokyoCabinet

https://github.com/white-gecko/TokyoCabinet/raw/master/glob.c
and

And where should i put them?

[e***@gmail.com]

Just wanted to update this thread with some information on how I solved it
for libxml2.
I downloaded glob.c/.h from white_gecko above and put them in my lib's top
folder before compiling glob.c using the arm gcc compiler:

$ arm-linux-androideabi-gcc -c -I. glob.c

Then I changed the .o file to be world-executable (chmod +x glob.o) and
added it to my LIBS env variable (export LIBS=/tmp/libxml2/glob.o).
I then ran ./configure again (according to
http://mortoray.com/2012/08/21/android-ndk-cross-compile-setup-libpng-and-freetype/)
and compiled it using "make".
Compiling and tests worked fine after this (before "runtests" would fail
beacuse of missing glob.c/.h).

Thanks white_gecko for the glob files!

Regards,
Erik

I also try to compile libxml2 for Android, but it doesn't work for me.
It stops at the configure part, saying that the C compiler isn't working.

Erik it would be nice if you can provide the compiled libxml2 binaries.

Yeah, configure tries to execute the ARM binary (target) on my local
machine (host). That won't work.

Does anyone know how to make aututools recognize its a cross compile?
`./configure --host=arm` does not seem work as expected/advertised:

$ echo $PATH
/opt/android-ndk-r9/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/darwin-x86_64/bin:/opt/android-sdk-macosx/tools/:/opt/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools/:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/local/MacGPG2/bin


$ echo $ANDROID_NDK_ROOT
/opt/android-ndk-r9


$ export CPP=arm-linux-androideabi-cpp
$ export CC=arm-linux-androideabi-gcc
...
$ export LD=arm-linux-androideabi-ld


$ echo $ANDROID_SYSROOT
--sysroot=/opt/android-ndk-r9/platforms/android-14/arch-arm
$ export CFLAGS="--sysroot=$ANDROID_SYSROOT"
$ export CXXFLAGS="--sysroot=$ANDROID_SYSROOT"
...


$ ./configure --host=arm
checking build system type... i386-apple-darwin12.5.0
checking host system type... arm-unknown-none
...
checking how to run the C preprocessor... arm-linux-androideabi-cpp
configure: error: in `/Users/jwalton/Desktop/libxml2-2.9.1':
configure: error: C preprocessor "arm-linux-androideabi-cpp" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details


$ cat config.log
...
configure:3612: checking whether we are cross compiling
configure:3620: arm-linux-androideabi-gcc -o conftest
--sysroot=/opt/android-ndk-r9/platforms/android-14/arch-arm
conftest.c >&5
configure:3624: $? = 0
configure:3631: ./conftest
./configure: line 3633: ./conftest: cannot execute binary file
configure:3635: $? = 126
configure:3642: error: in `/Users/jwalton/Desktop/libxml2-2.9.1':
configure:3644: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

And sorry to jump in. I've been meaning to cross compile libxml for my
projects, and it seemed like a good time.

Hi Stephan,

I don't have the binary available anymore. However, I think you might be
able to follow the instructions (some reverse engineering of PATHs might be
necessary) on the link below to compile libxml2 for Android.
https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik-packaging/blob/master/osx/scripts/build_core_deps.sh#L78
Though, I haven't tested my self I am pretty sure the author got it working
with the Android NDK.

Regards,
Erik

Hey Erik,

thank you for the link, helped me a lot.
Now I was able to build libxml2 for Android.
I created a Script <https://gist.github.com/EarlOfEgo/6881748> which worked
for me.

Update NDK to r17-beta2, set API Level to 28, glob's problem is fixed.

But note that your minSdkVersion will then be 28.
