Hi!
I'm investigating on the NDK and I want to create a "Spline" class that runs on native code. I have a C++ class from another project (with its .h and .cpp files) and I would like to use them in my Android project, because it offers more functionality than Android's "Path" class.

The problem is that I want to port some code in C++ but most examples are made in C. What changes do I need to make to .h and .cpp text files? Currently, my test app throws an UnsatisfiedLinkError when I call to a native method that has the same name and parameters of the Java class.

By the way, do you know any C++ example to get some inspiration?

Thank you!

Okay, I've solved it. It is not possible to directly use custom classes, you've got to wrap them with JNI calls and keep a pointer inside the Java class. If someone is interested on what I did, I can post sourcecode here.

Hi,

I'm interested in this problem. Can you post your source code here? Thank you.

Hi,

I've made a little JNI example. If you see the code, the only thing I do is to wrap C++ class methods inside a Java class, keeping a pointer inside it.

I have also included a little builder helper in the project (which compiles automatically the C++ source code), but it only works on GNU/Linux, inside a defined folder (in my case /home/jose/workspace/JNITest). If it causes problems to you, remove it following these steps:

Right-click on project->Properties->Builders, and then remove (or edit) the last one ("Native builder").

I hope this helps you!

Hi,

It works fine for me =). Thank you very much.

Hi there,

I have a custom class , lets call it MyClass. In the main part of my prog I want to run a cout which outputs say Myinstance. I would have though I would add it nt he stdiolib. But I want to add it in my class... Something along the lines of

class MyClass {

MyClass::Cout {
print. MyInstance.x + " " + MyInstance.y;
}
}

Something like that, I'm not doing it properly as, it is giving me the error: "no match for operator<< in std::operator<<
