We’ve updated the IDE built-in SDK Manager to let you install the NDK in the right place, and the Project Structure Dialog’s SDK Location panel (where you can edit the locations), now also offers a quick link to install it directly just click on the Download hyperlink shown below: In this release we’ve tried to unify this the NDK should now be installed under the SDK home in “ndk-bundle”.

zip file download, and installed in a separate location from where the Android SDK resides. As another example, the various templates which update the build files (such as New Module), have not yet been updated.įinally, there are still some known bugs in this build when debugging with LLDB breakpoints do not always work on Windows if you run into this, you can switch to GDB debugging as a temporary workaround.īundled Android NDKHistorically, the Android NDK was distributed separately from the Android SDK, as a giant. You’ll need to edit your adle files manually to configure your projects. This means that for example the Project Structure Dialog, and various quick fixes which automatically update the build data, do not work correctly.

Second, note also that Android Studio has not yet been updated to fully handle the experimental plugin. While the new gradle plugin delivers some major performance improvements (and Android NDK build support), note that it also requires changes to the build file “DSL” (the way your build is described in your adle files.) Not only will you need to modify your adle files (a process we hope to automate before the plugin graduates from experimental to stable), but we anticipate making some additional incompatible changes along the way. LimitationsFirst, the Android NDK support only works with the new experimental Gradle plugin for Android (which in turn requires Gradle 2.5).

There are many significant limitations (described below), but we hope that the preview will be useful for many Android NDK developers even in its current state! This build contains a big new feature: Android NDK support, with support for editing, running and debugging C and C++ code! Note however that NDK support is only preview quality, and will remain in preview status for the upcoming final 1.3 release. We’ve just released another update to Android Studio 1.3's canary channel, Release Candidate 1.
