Did anyone compiled GSL for androind?

Question

I am trying to compile gsl for android but it is giving error. I checked on their website and they said that

It has been reported to compile on the following other platforms,

SunOS 4.1.3 & Solaris 2.x (Sparc)
Alpha GNU/Linux, gcc
HP-UX 9/10/11, PA-RISC, gcc/cc
IRIX 6.5, gcc
m68k NeXTSTEP, gcc
Compaq Alpha Tru64 Unix, gcc
FreeBSD, OpenBSD & NetBSD, gcc
Cygwin
Apple Darwin 5.4
Hitachi SR8000 Super Technical Server, cc

I want to compile gsl for armeabi. Did anyone did this before? Please suggest some solutions.

Answer 1

I compiled Successfully. I compiled static libraries and then used the mergelib to merge gsl and cblas. It worked perfectly for me. For merging you need to change the ar and ranlib in the mergelib file to arm-linux-androideabi-ar and arm-linux-androideabi-ranlib respectively. For compiling GSL, follow this method to set the path.

$NDKROOT/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-21 --install-dir=$NDKROOT/android_armeabi   

export CC="$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc --sysroot=$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/sysroot"
export CXX="$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++ --sysroot=$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/sysroot"
export AR="$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-ar"
export SYSROOT="$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/sysroot"
export PATH="$NDKROOT/android_armeabi/bin":$PATH

./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi

I hope it will help.
