Hi,
I have downloaded the source code, I want to build ntfs-3g to run on android phone

My android phone project tool chain is "arm-linux-androideabi-4.6", I build the project use follow instructions:

./configure CC=arm-linux-androideabi --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi
make

The result is that I can not get the excutable ntfs-3g program for my android phone

what can I do?

Thanks

Hi,


If your Android environment is different from what ntfs-3g expects (calls through fuse, system calls, run-time libraries), you will have to adapt...

Is this the configure shipped with ntfs-3g ? Did you make changes ? AFAIK it does not know about Android.

When I cross-compile, I generally define the host and target with triplets cpu-vendor-os, in your case this would be :

Now, the target actually defines the compiler to be used, so your ./configure options could be correct, but you might also have to define the target location of the executable and libraries...

A good start would be to tell us more about your target environment, and what is happening...
- does the configure command issue errors ?
- does the make command issue errors ?
- is the uploading of the executable to your phone rejected ?

Regards
