## Environment

Clone this as a submodule of:
<https://review.jami.net/#/admin/projects/ring-project>
to obtain the required Jami daemon source.

You can also manually clone the daemon and override the DAEMON_DIR
during compilation

Make sure you have the android-ndk and android-sdk, and you'll want something
like this in your .bashrc (or equivalent):

    export ANDROID_NDK=$HOME/src/android-ndk
    export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$ANDROID_NDK
    export ANDROID_SDK=$HOME/src/android-sdk-linux
    export ANDROID_HOME=$ANDROID_SDK
    export PATH=$ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools:${PATH}

install swig-2.0.6 or later and python-2.7 or later on your system

## Build instructions

Supported archs are: armeabi-v7a , arm64-v8a and x86_64

Example:

    ANDROID_ABI="arm64-v8a x86_64"

Then:

    ./compile.sh

If you cloned the daemon in a custom directory (other than ../daemon),
you can specify it using an **absolute path**:

    DAEMON_DIR=custom_path ./compile.sh

**When all else fails**:

    git clean -dfx
    cd ../daemon (or custom_path)
    git clean -dfx

And start again.

## Update translations

Update translations using the Transifex client (tx) :

    ./update-translations.sh

## Debugging

Retrieve client log from device (client must be running before executing this)

    adb logcat *:D | grep `adb shell ps | egrep 'cx.ring' | cut -c10-15` > logring.txt

## Common issues

* Makeinfo issue
    makeinfo: command not found

    **Solution**:   Your java installation is not pointing to a JDK.
                    Install one, or make JAVA_HOME point to it.

* When building the apk error in build-tools
    error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6
    **Solution**:   Install lib32stdc++6 lib32z1-dev

* When compiling on Fedora
    error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    **Solution***: sudo dnf install ncurses-compat-libs
