Compiling and using libqi java bindings

Compiling

• Install qibuild

• Get a toolchain (See here for a list of supported architectures)

  qitoolchain create --feed-name <feed-name> <toolchain-name> git://github.com/aldebaran/toolchains.git
  

<toolchain-name> : name give to tool chain

(Where feed-name is the basename of one of the feeds in feeds/, without the .xml extension)

• If you want to build for android, you should install the NDK and set the following environment variables:

  ANDROID_HOME       /path/to/adt-bundle-linux/sdk  # don't forget the 'sdk'
  ANDROID_NDK_HOME   /path/to/android-ndk-r8e
  

• Create a build config matching this toolchain:

  qibuild add-config <config-name> -t <toolchain-name>
  

• Fetch the sources:

  mkdir -p ~/work/aldebaran
  cd ~/work/aldebaran
  qisrc init git@github.com:aldebaran/manifest.git
  

• Configure and build libqi-java bindings:

  cd sdk/libqi-java/jni
  qibuild configure -c <config-name>
  qibuild make -c <config-name>
  

• Copy (or create symlinks) so that the qimessaging native libs are treated as resources

  For instance, on linux, you should copy libqi.so and libqimessagingjni.so to libqi-java/qimessaging/native/linux64

• If you are not building for android, you can now run the tests with maven

  mvn test
  

Using libqi-java in an other project

To use the libqi Java bindings in an other maven project, run:

mvn install -DskipTests=true   # use -f pom-android.xml if relevant

Android compilation

For Android arm, you have to choose android-arm configuration. The first time create the configuration

cd ~/work/aldebaran/sdk/libqi-java qitoolchain create --feed-name android-arm android-arm git://github.com/aldebaran/toolchains.git

On each compilation

cd ~/work/aldebaran/sdk/libqi-java/jni qibuild configure --release -c android-arm qibuild make -j4 -c android-arm mkdir -p ../qimessaging/lib/armeabi-v7a mkdir -p /tmp/libqi-java/android-arm/ qibuild install --runtime -c android-arm

cd /tmp/libqi-java/android-arm/

for file in $(find -name *.so) do

cp $file ~/work/aldebaran/sdk/libqi-java/qimessaging/lib/armeabi-v7a

done

cd ~/work/aldebaran/sdk/libqi-java rm -rf /tmp/libqi-java/android-arm/ cp -f jni/build-android-arm/sdk/lib/libgnustl_shared.so qimessaging/lib/armeabi-v7a cd qimessaging mvn install -DskipTests=true # use -f pom-android.xml version=$(cat pom-android.xml | grep -oPm1 "(?<=<version>)[^<]+") zip -r target/libqi-java-$version.jar lib/
