Android NDK (Native Development Kit) is a toolset that allows developers to create native code libraries for Android. It enables developers to use C and C++ code in their Android apps, which can be useful for performance-critical portions of the app or for parts of the app that require access to platform-specific functionality.
The Android NDK provides a set of tools and libraries that allow developers to build native code libraries for Android. It includes the following components:
-
A set of cross-compilers: These compilers allow developers to build native code for Android on their development machine and then deploy the code on an Android device.
-
Header files: These files provide the declarations of the Android APIs and other platform-specific functionality that developers can access from their native code.
-
Native libraries: These libraries provide implementations of the Android APIs and other platform-specific functionality that developers can link to from their native code.
-
Debugging tools: These tools allow developers to debug their native code on an Android device or emulator.
To use the Android NDK, developers need to install it on their development machine and then set up their development environment to use it. They can then write native code using the NDK and integrate it into their Android app using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK) build system.
