Answer 2

After research so much of time, I found solution

If we want to use .so file in Tizen, then you have to compile source code with an appropriate hardware architecture. You can add .so file directly to your main project.

Lets assume you have two applications:

1. TestLibrary (shared library)

2. TestApplication (which wants to use a .so file)

Procedure:

1. Copy the header files of shared library (in the example : TestLibrary/inc)to TestApplication's inc folder.

2. keep the .so file (in our example: liborg.example.testlibrary.so) in TestApplication's lib folder

3. Show library path as following:

   a. Open TestApplication's properties window

   b. C/C++ Build -> Settings

   c. C++ Linker -> Libraries

   d. In "Libraries(-l)" section click add and put the .so file's name excluding .so and lib (in my example: org.example.testlibrary)

4. Now use the .so files' functions by including the header files in your TestApplication.
