+***** Very early, very ugly Android support for monkey2 *****
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+VERY cumbersome! Involves copying build files around etc, but should work if you're curious!
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+Note: Only armeabi-v7a supported right now.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+Setting up Android (The not so ugly bit):
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+1) Install Android Studio and make sure it works, ie: you can build and run one of the simple template projects on a device or emulator.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+2) Install the 'NDK' (native development kit) using Android Studio via 'SDK Manager->SDK Tools'.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+3) Edit your monkey2 bin/env_windows.txt file and change the ndk-bundle 'PATH' setting so it points to the NDK. Or, you can just add the
|
|
|
|
|
+ndk-bundle dir to your system PATH.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+4) Fire up Ted2 and select 'Build->Rebuild Modules->Android'.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+5) With a bit of luck, this should build android versions of all your monkey2 modules for release and debug configs.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+Building an App (The ugly bit):
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+1) Extract the 'Monkey2Game' zip in this directory somewhere poignant. This is the actual android project you will be 'creating'
|
|
|
|
|
+in the following steps, and eventually running from within Android Studio.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+2) Build your app in Ted2 using 'Build->Build Only' with 'Build Settings->Android' selected. Either debug or release should work.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+3) Go to the app's monkey2 build folder, ie: the '.buildvx.y.z/android_blah' folder next to your app's source code.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+4) Copy the 'assets' folder from the monkey2 build folder to the android project's 'app/src/main/' folder.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+5) Copy the *contents* of the 'libs' folder from the monkey2 build folder to the android projects 'app/src/main/jniLibs/' folder.
|
|
|
|
|
+You should end up with something like this in your android project's app/src/main/ folder:
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+assets/
|
|
|
|
|
+assets/asset1.png
|
|
|
|
|
+assets/asset2.png...etc...
|
|
|
|
|
+jniLibs/
|
|
|
|
|
+jniLibs/armeabi-v7a
|
|
|
|
|
+jniLibs/armeabi-v7a/libmx2_main.so
|
|
|
|
|
+jniLibs/armeabi-v7a/libopenal.so
|
|
|
|
|
+jniLibs/armeabi-v7a/libSDL2.so
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+6) You should now theoretically be able to run the android project from within Android Studio (this may involve a bit of trial and error).
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+The 'libmx2_main.so' file is the only one that actually changes when you rebuild via monkey2, so once you're up and running you can just copy that across.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+I also recommend disabling the following setting for mx2 Android Studio projects:
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+File->Settings->Build, Execution, Deployment->Instant Run->Enable Instant Run
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+With this enabled, Android Studio doesn't seem to notice when external project files change, eg: when you copy new assets/libs across.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+If all else fails and rebuilding doesn't seem to be uploading your changes, uninstall the app from the device and try again!
