| <shortdesc>After installing the Android NDK and a few other needed components, Eclipse can be configured to let you | |
| develop Android applications that include native (C/C++) code.</shortdesc> | |

| <prereq>Native support requires that the following be installed:<ul> | |
| <li>The Eclipse CDT plugin (version 7 or later)</li> | |
| <li>The Sequoyah Android feature</li> | |
| <li>Android NDK</li> | |
| <li>Cygwin (only on systems running Microsoft Windows)</li> | |
| <li>The Java JDK (the JRE is not sufficient; you need the full JDK)</li> | |
| </ul><p>Your development computer's system path (not the Eclipse path) should include the directory containing the | |
| Android NDK, and, on Microsoft Windows, the directory containing the Cygwin binaries.</p><p>For instructions on | |
| locating and installing the above components, and on setting your computer's system path, see the <i>MOTODEV | |
| Studio for Android Installation Guide</i>.</p></prereq> | |

| <step> | |
| <cmd>Specify the location of the NDK from within your development environment: navigate to the <menucascade | |
| ><uicontrol>Android</uicontrol><uicontrol>Android NDK</uicontrol></menucascade> preferences page and | |
| specify the path to the directory containing the NDK using the <uicontrol>NDK Location</uicontrol> | |
| field.</cmd> | |
| </step> | |
| </steps> | |
| <postreq>Now that you have configured your development environment to enable native development, enable it in those | |
| Android projects that have (or will have) native code.</postreq> | |
