“:app:buildNative'. > execCommand == null!” wh

This is the error I am getting when trying to build my android app in android studio. The app is using NDK which I think is what is causing the issue. I am very new with android studio and have been dealing with this issue for about 2 weeks now. After lots of googling, I don't understand what the issue is/how to TS this and don't have any idea what is going on. I also can't figure out how to use the debugger on the build.gradle file or how to see the value of System.env.ANDROID_NDK_HOME. I seem to be stuck at a wall, so any help/advise is appreciated.

Error:Gradle: Execution failed for task ':app:buildNative'.
execCommand == null!

This is the buildNative task in build.gradle.

task buildNative(type: Exec) {

    if (System.env.ANDROID_NDK_HOME != null) {
        def ndkBuild = new File(System.env.ANDROID_NDK_HOME, 'ndk-build')
        commandLine ndkBuild
    } else {
        doLast {
            println '##################'
            println 'Skipping NDK build'
            println 'Reason: ANDROID_NDK_HOME not set.'
            println '##################'
        }
    }
}

And here is the stack trace

回答1:

The error: System.env.ANDROID_NDK_HOME not defined simply means u have to:

(assuming u are running Linux using a terminal running bash shell):

export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=/opt/android-ndk

(where /opt/android-ndk is the full path of the NDK directory) then start your Android Studio in the present shell. If you startup Android Studio from the Desktop then you have to add the above line into your .bashrc login environment.

But if you are using Windows, then you have to use control panel to set the environment variables for the NDK directory.

回答2:

Assuming you have a Mac run these commands in the terminal:

These commands will set the environment variables that you are using.

This command sets the ndk location:

launchctl setenv ANDROID_NDK_HOME /path-to-your-ndk

This command sets your project path so the ndk will know what project you are working on:

launchctl setenv NDK_PROJECT_PATH /path-to-your-project
