Adding extra dependencies in cerbero for android target

[sazzadur rahman]

To create libharfbuzz.a, I've modified harfbuzz.recipe and added the following line:
 configure_options = '--with-included-modules --enable-static'

Now, it builds libharfbuzz.a under src/.libs/libharfbuzz.a; however not copied to dist/android_arm/lib/. So I manually copy the libharfbuzz.a to the dist directorey and create the cerbero package.

However, now ndk-build compiles about linking error for android-tutorial-2:

arm-linux-androideabi/bin/ld.gold: /local/mnt/workspace/mdsazzad/Gstremer/gstreamer_sdk/lib/libpangoft2-1.0.a(libpango_basic_fc_la-basic-fc.o): in function basic_engine_shape:basic-fc.c:338: error: undefined reference to 'hb_ft_face_create_cached'

arm-linux-androideabi/bin/ld.gold: /local/mnt/workspace/mdsazzad/Gstremer/gstreamer_sdk/lib/libpangoft2-1.0.a(libpango_basic_fc_la-basic-fc.o): in function basic_engine_shape:basic-fc.c:339: error: undefined reference to 'hb_font_create'

...
Any idea how to resolve this linking error?

Thanks!

Thanks Sebastian for the help!

Today I compiled GStreamer SDK for Android successfully with the cerbero you suggested:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/cerbero/ 
#cerbero -c config/cross-android.cbc bootstrap
#cerbero -c config/cross-android.cbc package gstreamer-1.0

Then I cloned the ported turorials for 1.x from here:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~slomo/gst-sdk-tutorials/ 

However, android-tutorial-2 and 3 fails with the following output:

#ndk-build
GStreamer      : [GEN] => gst-build-armeabi/gstreamer_android.c
GStreamer      : [COMPILE] => gst-build-armeabi/gstreamer_android.c
GStreamer      : [LINK] => gst-build-armeabi/libgstreamer_android.so
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc: error: gstreamer_sdk/lib/libharfbuzz.a: No such file or directory
make: *** [buildsharedlibrary_armeabi] Error 1

I found that cerbero generated libharfbuzz.la and .so but not .a and ndk-build was looking for .a file. Do you have any idea how to resolve this issue?

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Thanks,
sazzad

After successful compilation, it generated the  SDK (gstreamer-sdk-android-arm-2013.6.tar.bz2). However, android-tutorial-3 compilation fails since this SDK does not have gstreamer-interfaces dependency (#GSTREAMER_EXTRA_DEPS  := gstreamer-interfaces-0.10 gstreamer-video-0.10 in Android.mk); although the standard SDK from http://cdn.gstreamer.com/android/arm/gstreamer-sdk-android-arm-debug-2013.6.tar.bz2 has these dependencies.

First of all you should ideally use the GStreamer 1.x binaries from
gstreamer.freedesktop.org. gstreamer.com is a third party website not
related to the GStreamer project and they provide binaries for the old
and unsupported 0.10 version.
You can get cerbero for 1.x at:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/cerbero/

You can find the same tutorials ported to the 1.x
 versions of GStreamer
here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~slomo/gst-sdk-tutorials/

For the gstreamer-interfaces problem, what you described there should
just work. How does it fail for you, what's the build output?
