Description

I cant build any module anymore with the new sdk 6.0.0.GA. I suspect it has got to do with the incompatible android NDK been used as the new sdk is making used of the latest V8 whereas the android NDK been used in the titanium studio is quit old and outdated. I tried installing the latest ndk revison 13 and tried compilling but that also always seems to ends up with some messy error. This incompatibility has prevent all my projects from making use of the latest sdk 6 and had me still stuck at 5.5.1 sdk because my app make uses of a lot of external modules. Steps to reproduce : 1. Go to titanium studio 2. Create new mobile module project with android as the deployment target using the sdk 6.0.0.GA version. 3. Put the android ndk path in the build.properties. 4. run as Ant Build. The compiling never succeeds but always throws up some error [related to android NDK most probably]

Hello, You did not provide the actual error when you try to build module. Also, currently Appcelerator support NDK version 9. See:http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/guide/Installing_the_Android_NDK.Thanks.

Hi, So far we have been unable to reproduce this issue with Appcelerator Studio, build: 4.8.0.201611121409 and 6.0.0.GA. We recommend you to upgarde your NDK *build.properties*

After updating the android NDK to revision 12 b, I can successfully compile again. I feel it should be explicitly stated on the release page that the latest release of the sdk needs ANDROID NDK r12b to successfully compile android module.

Thanks for letting us know. Fixed with latest NDK release.
