NDK Version update Android appcenter build

[D3laru3]

Is it possible to update NDK to the latest version? I'm experiencing an issue with the appcenter build due to NDK STL shared object file.

Expected NDK STL shared object file at /Users/runner/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.9/libs/armeabi-v7a/libgnustl_shared.so

The issue might be connected with the DexGuard which we have to include in our project. It looks like DexGuard using the 18+ version of the NDK

I tried to set android.ndkVersion in our Gradle to version. 21..+. Unfortunately, local version of NDK in appcenter is set to 18.1.5063045.

No version of NDK matched the requested version 21.0.6113669. Versions available locally: 18.1.5063045, 18.1.5063045

Thanks

Just to chime in here: on Azure Devops, their VMs support 21.0.6113669. I can't remember if all 3 platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux) support it. I know their Ubuntu VM did not support 20.x version.

Definitely need this upgraded. Gradle 4.0.0 has been released, and I'm still stuck on 3.5.3 because AppCenter is breaking my entire deployment process if I upgrade. My company has started considering alternative CI/CD solutions due to this specific issue.

This issue can also solve by adding
android { ndkVersion "major.minor.build" // e.g., ndkVersion '21.3.6528147' }
in gradle build. you can see here

@NasarIqbalTechswivel That doesn't appear to be working for me on AppCenter. AppCenter is still trying to use the newer NDK.

Any update on this?
I'm getting a similar error on app center

Execution failed for task ':app:stripReleaseDebugSymbols'.

BTW I already have the ndkVersion specified in android/app/build.gradle file
