**Build Androwish**

[HaO] 2015-03-24: My intention is to collect reports building great [Androwish] with the aim to get stand-alone APK files with custom contents.

Contributions and ideas welcome.

Warning: I am an absolute beginner on Android.

Starting point is the description by [chw]: [http://www.androwish.org/index.html/wiki?name=Building+AndroWish]

***Try on Windows***

Windows build stopped with ndk-build with a "command line to long" error.
I tried cmd.exe and cygwin shell, same result.

***CentOS 6***

Failed for me due to a to old clib.

***OpenSuSE 13.2***

I installed VirtualBox on my Windows 8.1 and OpenSuSE 13.2.
   *   Added series: java development
   *   Added packages: java-1_7_0-openjdk-devel, xerces-j2-xml-apis

Activate Java 7 (e.g. 1.7):

======none
update-alternatives --config java
-> 1.7
update-alternatives --config javac
-> 1.7
update-alternatives --config xml-commons-apis
-> xerces-j2-xml-apis.jar
======

Set up Android build system:
======none
cd ~
mkdir android
cd android
mkdir download
======

Downloaded in ~/android/download:
   *   android-sdk_r24.1.2-linux.tgz
   *   android-ndk-r10d-linux-x86_64.bin
   *   androwish-e2aee3ea2ea718e7.tar.gz (Pi Day Release)

Unpack and install, androwish in folder "androwish" for easier access
======none
cd ~/android
tar xvzf download/android-sdk_r24.1.2-linux.tgz
chmod +x download/android-ndk-r10d-linux-x86_64.bin
download/android-ndk-r10d-linux-x86_64.bin
tar xvzf download/androwish-e2aee3ea2ea718e7.tar.gz
mv androwish-e2aee3ea2ea718e7 androwish
======

Open Android SDK manager:
======none
~/android/android-sdk-linux/tools/android sdk
-> Select Google APIs ARM EABI v7a System Image
-> Unselect all other system images
======

Prepare build and let "android" create "local.properties":
======none
export PATH=$PATH:~/android/android-sdk-linux/tools:~/android/android-ndk-r10d
cd androwish

android update project -p . --target 1
======

On "ant debug", I had the following build error I could not solve:
======none
     [exec] [armeabi] Compile thumb  : tiff_tkimg <= tif_predict.c
     [exec] /tmp/ccTUdnr3.s: Assembler messages:
     [exec] /tmp/ccTUdnr3.s: Error: unaligned opcodes detected in executable segment
     [exec] make: *** [obj/local/armeabi/objs/tiff_tkimg/libtiff/tif_predict.o] Error 1
======
This is in jni/tiff.
So I deleted the tkimg and jni/tiff folders:
======none
rm -rf jni/tkimg jni/tiff
======

Now, an "ant debug" succeeds for me.
The result is in "androwish/bin/AndroWish-debug.apk

Great, thank you, Cristian !
