Unified Headers are now enabled by default.
Note: The deprecated headers will be removed in a future release, most likely r16. If they do not work for you, file bugs now.
GCC is no longer supported. It will not be removed from the NDK just yet, but is no longer receiving backports. It cannot be removed until after libc++ has become stable enough to be the default, as some parts of gnustl are still incompatible with Clang. It will likely be removed after that point.
Gingerbread (android-9) is no longer supported. The minimum API level target in the NDK is now Ice Cream Sandwich (android-14). If your APP_PLATFORM
is set lower than android-14, android-14 will be used instead.
NDK r15‘s release cycle is going to be extended somewhat due to the O developer preview logistics. r15 beta 1 is specifically for the O APIs rather than the libandroid_support
rework we originally intended for this release. As such, the libandroid_support
work will be coming in a later beta (hopefully beta 2). We’ll be doing at least 3 beta releases this cycle.
awk
is no longer in the NDK. We've replaced all uses of awk with Python.libandroid_support
to fix libc++ reliability issues. https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/300.
