Android ndk different cflags - android-gradle-plugin

I have 3 projects in Android Studio: producer, consumer, and lib.
Lib is a shared JNI library in which I define a few functions to behave differently while others the same depending on how they're used. For example:
void function() {
#ifdef PRODUCER
printf("I'm a producer!\n");
#endif // PRODUCER
#ifdef CONSUMER
printf("I'm a consumer!\n");
#endif // CONSUMER
}
I'd like my gradle.build script for lib to basically have two potential flavors: producer & consumer then specify a dependency in the other projects like compile project(':lib:producer') or project(':lib:consumer'). These different targets would only vary in the following:
android {
defaultConfig {
ndk {
cFlag "-DPRODUCER" // or -DCONSUMER
}
}
}
Is this possible?

Turns out the best thing to do here was upgrade to Android Studio 2.2+ then use the externalNativeBuild's CMake to generate multiple libraries.

Compiling for both Kotlin/Java and Kotlin/JS?

I'd like to write some of my code in Kotlin such that it can be used by both a JVM-based backend and a JS-based frontend.
To do the former (with the new IR complier), the classes have to be annotated with #JsExport. However, if I then try to use build the same file for a JVM, it breaks because that annotation is not recognized.
(These are separate projects with independent gradle configs but linking to the same Kotlin source tree. It's not a single "multiplatform" build.)
How can I export Kotlin/JS while still being compatible with Kotlin/Java?
To achieve that seperation and reusability, you need three gradle submodules that would depend on each other
The 'shared' module. The one with the common code
The 'backend' module. Purely kotlin/jvm module
The 'frontend' module. A purely kotlin/js module
Your gradle project structure should look something like this
project-root
- shared
- src/commonMain/kotlin
- build.gradle.kts
- backend
- src/main/kotlin
- build.gradle.kts
- frontend
- src/main/kotlin
- build.gradle.kts
- settings.gradle.kts
shared/build.gradle.kts should look like this
plugins {
kotlin("multiplatform")
}
and then backend/build.gradle.kts
plugins {
kotlin("jvm")
}
kotlin {
sourceSets {
val main by getting {
dependencies {
implementation(projects(":shared"))
}
}
}
}
and then backend/build.gradle.kts
plugins {
kotlin("js")
}
kotlin {
sourceSets {
val main by getting {
dependencies {
implementation(projects(":shared"))
}
}
}
}
and then settings.gradle.kts
include(":shared",":backend",":frontend")
With this sort of arrangement, You can write your shared code inside shared/src/commonMain/kotlin and environment specific code on their respective backend or frontend submodules
NOTE: The gradle configs above have been minimised to narrow down the explanation
#JsExport annotation works fine provided you are in a common source set.
I've done a quick example at: https://github.com/SimonCJacobs/JsExportExample
Run the Gradle tasks "jsRun" or "jvmRun" to see a #JsExport used in both platforms with the JS IR compiler.

How to import a file from another directory in Kotlin?

I have a gradle kotlin project, and I'm generating a kotlin file from a Rust project, so it ends up in a totally different place with no gradle project structure, etc.
How do I import this file into my gradle project?
It has its own package but it's a completely standalone file. This is my gradle file:
rootProject.name = "my_project"
include("app")
It's a desktop project, NOT android.
My build.gradle.kts:
plugins {
// Apply the org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm Plugin to add support for Kotlin.
id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm") version "1.5.31"
// Apply the application plugin to add support for building a CLI application in Java.
application
}
repositories {
// Use Maven Central for resolving dependencies.
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
// Align versions of all Kotlin components
implementation(platform("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-bom"))
// Use the Kotlin JDK 8 standard library.
implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8")
// This dependency is used by the application.
implementation("com.google.guava:guava:30.1.1-jre")
// Use the Kotlin test library.
testImplementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-test")
// Use the Kotlin JUnit integration.
testImplementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-test-junit")
}
application {
// Define the main class for the application.
mainClass.set("my_project.ffi.AppKt")
}
Adding the following code to your build.gradle.kts should do the trick (tested with Gradle 7.3.2):
// TODO: replace this dummy task with the task from your Rust project which
// generates the Kotlin source directory. Make sure that the generated
// directory (with the Kotlin file(s)) is the task output directory.
val rustTask by tasks.registering(Copy::class) {
// To test this, I had simply put a Kotlin file into this "somewhere"
// directory.
from("somewhere")
into(temporaryDir)
}
sourceSets {
main {
java {
srcDir(rustTask)
}
}
}
tasks {
compileKotlin {
dependsOn(rustTask)
}
}
So, we’re simply adding the generated sources as an additional source directory to the default SourceSet which is consumed by the compileKotlin task. In addition, we make sure that the sources are generated before compileKotlin runs.

Androidx Proto datastore gradle setup

I'm trying to get the new (alpha) android datastore using protobuf support configured in gradle using Kotlin DSL (build.gradle.kts). The first attempts are not generating any java source classes from the xxx.proto (made-up name) file that is present. The protobuf plugin is generating the correct android tasks, but running them generates nothing, so obviously the default setup is not finding the directory my initial xxx.proto file is located in. The existing doc is thin on gradle setup, especially for Kotlin Gradle DSL (most all the gradle doc from google so far is for groovy), and my initial attempts at defining the location of the xxx.proto file are not working.
Does anyone have or has anyone seen working gradle config that specifies a custom source directory for .proto file(s) using Kotlin (build.gradle.kts)?
Got it working after some experimentation and floundering, but a hack is involved. If anyone can suggest improvements, it would be appreciated. In case this is useful here are the config snippets from the working setup. Module is kotlin 1.4.21-2 multiplatform with android, ios64, and jvm targets, with more planned. It has the KMP default setup for source directories:
The .proto file is in src/androidMain/proto subdirectory.
build.gradle.kts snippets are below. All the changes are in the android block, except for the plugin of course:
plugins {
id("com.android.library")
kotlin("multiplatform")
id("kotlinx-atomicfu")
kotlin("plugin.serialization") version Versions.kotlinVersion
id("com.google.protobuf") version "0.8.14"
}
...
kotlin {
... no changes here
}
...
android {
...
sourceSets {
...
getByName("main") {
manifest.srcFile("src/androidMain/AndroidManifest.xml")
java.srcDirs("src/androidMain/kotlin")
assets.srcDirs(File("src/commonMain/resources"))
withGroovyBuilder {
"proto" {
"srcDir" ("src/androidMain/proto")
}
}
}
}
protobuf {
protoc {
artifact = "com.google.protobuf:protoc:4.0.0-rc-2"
}
plugins {
id("javalite") { artifact = "com.google.protobuf:protoc-gen-javalite:3.0.0" }
}
generateProtoTasks {
all().forEach { task ->
task.builtins {
id("java") {
option("lite")
}
}
task.plugins{
}
}
}
}
dependencies {
api("com.google.protobuf:protobuf-javalite:4.0.0-rc-2")
implementation("androidx.datastore:datastore:1.0.0-alpha05")
...
}
}
Note the withGroovyBuilder hack in the android sourceset - the srcdir definition is required for the plugin to find the .proto file I had, but in the current version of the plugin I couldn't figure out the correct Kotlin DSL syntax. Seems like the plugin needs to define a Kotlin extension function to make this work better.
It would be really nice if instead of requiring this stuff, that the datastore stuff could use the protobuf serialization available with kotlinx.serialization, and skip this java code generation step in gradle all together. But I'm sure that's down the road...
Anyway, thanks in advance if anyone has improvements etc...

Setting up gradle and project structure for Kotlin Multiplatform project

I want to build a CLI tool with Kotlin Multiplatform which runs on Linux, Macos and Windows.
But I am struggling with setting up my build.gradle and my project structure. I am using IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 and created my basic project with File -> New -> Project -> Kotlin / Native | Gradle
Currently I am looking through guides from kotlinlang.org but I am more falling then achieving something.
So far my build.gradle looks as follows:
plugins {
id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.multiplatform' version '1.3.72'
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
kotlin {
// For ARM, should be changed to iosArm32 or iosArm64
// For Linux, should be changed to e.g. linuxX64
// For MacOS, should be changed to e.g. macosX64
// For Windows, should be changed to e.g. mingwX64
linuxX64("linux") {
}
mingwX64("mingw") {
}
macosX64("macos") {
binaries {
executable {
// Change to specify fully qualified name of your application's entry point:
entryPoint = 'sample.main'
// Specify command-line arguments, if necessary:
runTask?.args('')
}
}
}
sourceSets {
commonMain {
kotlin.srcDir('src/main')
resources.srcDir('src/res')
dependencies {
implementation kotlin('stdlib-common')
implementation "com.github.ajalt:clikt-multiplatform:2.7.0"
}
}
commonTest {
dependencies {
implementation kotlin('test-common')
implementation kotlin('test-annotations-common')
}
}
macosX64().compilations.test.defaultSourceSet {
dependsOn commonMain
}
// Note: To enable common source sets please comment out
'kotlin.import.noCommonSourceSets' property
// in gradle.properties file and re-import your project in IDE.
macosMain {
}
macosTest {
}
}
}
wrapper {
gradleVersion = "6.4.1"
distributionType = "ALL"
}
And my project structure is still basic:
Project structure
Formerly I only worked on Android Projects with Kotlin, and I guess I am spoiled with gradle as Android generates the most basic stuff and everything is working without doing that much.
I understand that I need to create packages like linuxMain and mingwMain, but where to I put common sourcesets? I tried to create a package called commonMain, but it won't even let me create Kotlin files in that package.
When I am finished I want to have (in the best case) one common source set and one entry point for all my targets. Is this even possible?
As far as I can see, you specify your commonMain source set's source locations as /src/main/. By default, it's usually set onto /src/commonMain/kotlin/. So if you will remove those srcDir settings and create a .kt file in your /src/commonMain/kotlin/ folder, everything should work fine. Also, I hope you have removed 'kotlin.import.noCommonSourceSets' property from your gradle.properties as your script recommended.

Cannot include transitive dependencies from AAR

So, I have a project which is split into library and application part; library is expected to be released to wide audience, thus I need to make it .aar (or, rather, .aar + .pom).
In library/build.gradle.. nothing significant.
In app/build.gradle:
repositories {
flatDir {
dirs "/tmp/testlibdir/"
}
}
...
apply plugin: 'android'
compile ('foo.bar:baz-lib:0.0.1#aar') { transitive=true }
POM is available as /tmp/testlibdir/baz-lib-0.0.1.pom, /tmp/testlibdir/pom.xml, and .aar is /tmp/testlibdir/baz-lib-0.0.1.aar.
Gradle won't load any dependencies from that POM, so I get a lot of java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: in runtime.
What's wrong with it?
I've repeated the path done in this question, however it won't work.
Also tried to use
android {
publishNonDefault true
}
in library/build.gradle, no effect.
