It looks like you're trying to build the platform on Windows. This is not supported yet. Assigning to @mkonicek as he knows more about this.

[szhupeng]

Thank you, but I heard that the react - native Windows platform is currently supported
@mkonicek did you know?

[ck227]

i have meet the same problem

[CoderStav]

Is Windows still not supported? Having the same issue here.

[ck227]

@JimmyStavros i change the ndk to r9, solve the problem

[CoderStav]

@ck227 Were you trying to compile the examples too? That's what I've been trying to do all night.

[ck227]

@JimmyStavros yes,i spent a lot of time run the UIExporer but failed with the issue blow #6331 (comment) ,

i found the solution here, #6260
but i cant understand it well,so i give up with the demos.

[CoderStav]

@ck227 shame, guess I should just make my life easier and develop on an ubuntu image until they roll out some serious windows support. :(

[ck227]

@JimmyStavros we should develop on a mac , windows support is really a piece of shit

[CoderStav]

@ck227 it's frustrating since Windows has partial support, I was able to breeze through the getting started tutorial. Since I was able to write the tutorial app I thought I'd be able to make the examples compile somehow...

[ck227]

@JimmyStavros can u help me out with this issue? #6331 (comment)
really want to solve it since i have already spent lots of time.

[CoderStav]

@ck227 I can look, though don't know how much help I can be. Looks like your ndk solution worked for me; waiting to see if I hit the same hurdle now.

[ck227]

@JimmyStavros thx, hope u will, ahahaha :-D

[mkonicek]

Windows support is community responsibility as people on the RN team at fb don't have Windows machines. Developing RN apps on Windows should work now but I don't know the status of building React Native itself.

If someone can figure out a fix for this and share it or send a pull request that would be awesome. It would help others using Windows.

can u help me out with this issue? #6331 (comment)

Looking at comments on #6311 there might already be a fix in #6260, merged 6 days ago. This means it will be part of RN 0.23.0-rc which will be released next week.

For the Gradle error:

Process 'command 'E:\android-ndk-r10e\ndk-build.cmd'' finished with non-zero exit value 2

You'll need to look at what's printed before to see the actual error message from Gradle.

ndk-build is the part of the Gradle build that compiles C++ code.
