Given that I cannot go further building for Android on MinGW, I changed my setup for Feroda 14 over vmware on my Windows 7 PC. Downloaded a fresh version of linphone-android and all and now I run into the below error. Can anyone help?

Subject: RE: [Linphone-developers] Bad file number while building liblincrypto.so
I was using MinGW and now I tried with Cygwin. I get to the same stage but with a different error message that seems to confirm that there are too many input files to create the library liblincrypto.so:
…
…
Compile thumb : lincrypto <= ech_ossl.c
Compile thumb : lincrypto <= tb_ecdh.c
SharedLibrary : liblincrypto.so
make: execvp: /cygdrive/c/Android/android-ndk-r6b/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/windows/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++: Argument list too long
make: *** [/cygdrive/c/source/linphone-android/obj/local/armeabi-v7a/liblincrypto.so] Error 127
Therefore some changes are necessary to the .mk file(s) I believe. Maybe we could first use the librarian to build a few static libraries and then build liblincrypto.so from those static libs instead of from the individual object files. That would reduce the length of the arguments list . Nicely said but I don’t know how to do that!!!
- first, does that make sense?
- second, can anyone help me do that cause I have no clue how those .mk files work?
Thanks,
Richard
Thanks Jehan,
In fact changing line # 41 of ortp.c from this:
#include <srtp/srtp.h> to this:
#include <srtp.h> is a better solution.
I had tried ndk-r7 that is now available from the Android site but it didn’t work. Today I searched the web and found ndk-r6b and that works and gets me much further; up to here:
…
…
Compile thumb : lincrypto <= ech_lib.c

I’ve been staring at C:\source\linphone-android\submodules\externals\openssl\crypto\Android.mk for a while (too long while…) and tried changing this:
$(LOCAL_PATH)/../include \
To this:
$(LOCAL_PATH)/../include
But got the same results.
Why this error message? A search on the web indicates that this could be caused by a too large number of sources for the archiver (over 450 files). Has anybody encountered/solved that issue?
Thanks,
Richard
Well, it looks like you are an unlucky man ;-)
At least for the vp8 issue, Linphone requires ndk >=5c (see REAME)
Anyway thank you for debugging the build under cygwin.

I resolved my problem by copying pkg.m4 from here:
C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\share\aclocal
./configure: line 11437: syntax error near unexpected token `MEDIASTREAMER,'
./configure: line 11437: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(MEDIASTREAMER, mediastreamer >= 2.0.0)']
But then ./prepare_sources.sh stopped further down with the following message:

If anyone ever meet that error I would welcome information on how to solve it.
Nevertheless I continued and tried to compile the code using androir-ndk-r5b. Firstly I had to change line # 41 of ortp.c from this:
#include <srtp/srtp.h> to this:
#include <../../srtp/include/srtp.h>
And now it compiles a whole bunch of files but eventually fails with this error and I don’t know what to do with it:
Compile arm : vpx <= vpx_codec.c
Compile arm : vpx <= vpx_image.c
Compile arm : vpx <= arm_cpudetect.c
Compile arm : vpx <= vp8_vpxyv12_copyframe_func_neon.s

make.exe: *** [/c/source/linphone-android/obj/local/armeabi-v7a/objs/vpx/vpx_scale/arm/neon/vp8_vpxyv12_copyframe_func_neon.o] Error 2
In directory `/c/source/linphone-android/obj/local/armeabi-v7a/objs/ vpx/vpx_scale/arm/neon’ I see this file:
vp8_vpxyv12_copyframe_func_neon.o and this file:
vp8_vpxyv12_copyframe_func_neon.o but none of this file:
vp8_vpxyv12_copyframe_func_neon.o.org
I inspected a few .mk files which contain the above filename without the extension but it doesn’t look like I’m on the right track. Any help on how to attack this problem would make my day!

In fact I do need SILK. Unfortunately, I’m having a hard time to understand your last reply… I see that I have 2 files named pkg.m4. One here:
C:\sources\linphone-android\submodules\externals\libvpx\nestegg\m4
C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\share\aclocal
What should I be looking for in these files?

pkg.m4 is the important file in this case.
Anyway, this last step in the prepare source is only mandatory if you plan to compile with SILK support. Otherwise, just ignore this issue and continue.

But it seems that I already have pkg-config installed. I can see it in my C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\pkg-config.exe directory and I have tested the that pkg-config can run from my MinGS shell (/sources/linphone-android) where I launch ./prepare_sources.sh.
Is there something else that I could look at.

I’m Working from a 64 bit Windows 7 OS. I was successful in building the Linphone as instructed in the file README.mingw. Now I’m trying to build for Android but I am not successful using the instructions in the file README-ANDROID.
I have the Android ndk-r5b installed as well as the autotools: autoconf, automake, aclocal and libtoolize. And I think that the later(s) are installed properly given that I can build, and run, linphone for Windows. This is the error that I get when I execute:
checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... no

I looked at the line 11437 but all looks fine to me. However I’m not familiar with those kind of files… I would very much appreciate if someone could give me some insight or leads as to where I can go from here to resolve that issue.
