C, ALLEGRO, FMOD and Android

Hello forum.

I found the C4Droid and CPPDroid compilers for Android. I want to use them with the ALLEGRO and FMOD libraries. So programming ON Android FOR Android in C using these two libraries.
Has somebody experience with this? Are all ALLEGRO commands supported for the Android platform?
Are there differences compared to using it on Windows?
And it seems there are no builds of these two libraries for Android (I'm not able to build ALLEGRO myself, because I'm using no Windows or Linux platform).
Do the header files have to be modified to use C4Droid or CPPDroid? Are they supported by ALLEGRO or only GCC?

Did you read this?
Allegro 5 & C++ / Android: is possible, how to....

In fact, in general, did you read the respective support forums of all the libraries you wanted to use?

Thanks for reply,

yes, I know little about that, but I'm not able to test ALLEGRO, because I can not build it myself on Android...
I also did not find a build of it and header files for testing it with C4Droid or CPPDroid.

I would like to test it, but there seem to be no builds in the net.

Maybe I need somebody to build it. To download an Android build of FMOD was also not possible, that's the problem at the moment.
There seem not to be any places in the net to get shared library builds at all.

To be honest, things like C4Droid are educational toys (fairly capable within their limits, but toys non the less).

You should skip the NDK and standalone toolchain bits (your toolchain is c4droid).

As for the likes of CMake, well your guess is as good as mine.

Well if you insist on going that far off the beaten track, then you have to deal with all the road blocks yourself.
The author of c4droid seems to know what they're doing, perhaps you should make contact regarding your plan.

Good luck with your bold adventure.

ALLEGRO is not supported by C4Droid, so I installed CPPDroid.

With the header files everything ok.

I'm linking at compile time with a 'liballegro-debug.so' - successfully, but at runtime it says: cannot link executable (NameOfProgram.cpp.elf). And complains about not finding 'liballegro-debug.so'.
I think at runtime it looks for the .so in specific folders where I have not enough permissions to put the .so in...

So now I see my last chance in linking at compile time with a static library (liballegro.a), but I don't have one and am not able to build one myself.

By the way: It seems CPPDroid does not need any import library for using a shared library or generates it at compile time automatically?

Of SDL there are even no header files and no shared object in the net for Android, even worse.

This is probably not the answer you were looking for, but.. Honestly, if you want to write platform-generic graphics code you should be using OpenGL. Or, if you want to write only for Android use their native graphics library which is probaly based on OpenGL anyways... turtles all the way down
