The development of this Android app has to be done on Linux, it's currently not possible to
build the native parts on Windows.
* Compile LibreOffice master for Android.
Do this in the folder where you cloned the LibreOffice core (e.g master-android).
Create an autogen.input file:
--build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
--with-android-ndk=/home/$USER/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle
--with-android-sdk=/home/$USER/Android/Sdk
--with-distro=LibreOfficeAndroid
--enable-sal-log
Run ./autogen.sh && make
* Build zstd for Android
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/zstd/ android-zstd
cd android-zstd
mkdir -p install/armeabi-v7a
cd install/armeabi-v7a
NDK_PATH=~/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle
cmake \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=${NDK_PATH}/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake \
-DANDROID_ABI=armeabi-v7a \
-DCMAKE_ANDROID_ARCH_ABI=armeabi-v7a \
-DANDROID_NDK=${NDK_PATH} \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Android \
-DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=21 \
../../build/cmake
make
* Build zstd for several platforms:
scripts/build-zstd.sh ~/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle /opt/libreoffice
This will create a set of folders in install/ that you can configure with.
* Build the POCO for Android

* Build the JavaScript, HTML and CSS files also in the online-android folder
# just run 'make'
make
* Build the actual app
+ Start Android Studio
+ Open this 'android' subdir as a project
+ Build from Android Studio (Build -> Make Project)
Or
+ command line: ./gradlew build
== Building 32bit + 64bit combined .apk ==
+ you need to build both a 32bit (armeabi-v7a) and 64bit (arm64-v8a) core
+ you need to build both a 32bit and 64bit POCO
+ and then provide paths to both to the ./configure, separated by a colon ':',
like:
--with-lo-builddir=/local/libreoffice/master-android-release:/local/libreoffice/master-android-release-64bit \
--with-poco-includes=/opt/poco-android/include:/opt/poco-android-64bit/include \
--with-poco-libs=/opt/poco-android/lib:/opt/poco-android-64bit/lib \
== Debugging ==
To debug the native code in Android Studio, you need the debugging symbols and
to setup lldb to actually read & use them.
* Add debugging symbols for the modules you are interested in
To autogen.input, add something like:
--enable-symbols="vcl/ desktop/ sal/ svx/ framework/ sfx2/ tools/ cppu/ cppuhelper/ filter/ comphelper/ Library_sw Library_swd Library_swui"
clean the appropriate modules, like
make vcl.clean desktop.clean sal.clean svx.clean framework.clean sfx2.clean tools.clean cppu.clean cppuhelper.clean filter.clean comphelper.clean sw.clean
and rebuild using 'make'.
* Add android/obj/local/armeabi-v7a from core.git as a Symbol Directory
In Android Studio, choose Run -> Debug... -> Edit Configurations...
There go to the Android App -> app, choose the Debugger tab, and:
Debug type: Auto (or Dual)
Symbol Directories: here add the full path, like
/local/libreoffice/master-android/android/obj/local/armeabi-v7a
This path contains the non-stripped version of the liblo-native-code.so, and
the debugger will read the symbols from that one (even if the APK contains
the stripped version). *NB* ensure that this is before any internal source
directories - since the internal source contains stripped native code.
[Alternatively you can add the following to your ~/.lldbinit instead:
settings set target.inline-breakpoint-strategy always
settings append target.exec-search-paths /local/libreoffice/master-android/android/obj/local/armeabi-v7a
]
* To use pretty printers for types like OUString, add the following to your
~/.lldbinit:
command script import '/local/libreoffice/master-android/solenv/lldb/libreoffice/LO.py'
From now on, you will be able to debug directly in the Android Studio
debugger. Happy debugging!
Note: to re-build your app with a newly compiled libnative-lo code - it is
== Tip: How to speed up your core.git build ==
If you use icecream for parallel building, you can use it for
cross-compilation too.
# first generate a tarball with the toolchain (once)
icecc-create-env ~/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/armv7a-linux-androideabi21-clang ~/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/armv7a-linux-androideabi21-clang++
And add it and the paths to the compiler as the first things to the
autogen.input:
CC=icecc [here copy what the output of ./autogen.sh without icecream said for C compiler]
CXX=icecc [here copy what the output of ./autogen.sh without icecream said for C++ compiler]
ICECC_VERSION=/path/to/the/tarball/generated/above/955ceb546ceb7a5715bf0223ddd788fe.tar.gz
--with-parallelism=[amount of cpu threads in your icecream farm]
--enable-icecream
[...the original autogen.input...]
So the result will look something like this:
CC=icecc /home/$USER/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/clang -mthumb -march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=softfp -mfpu=neon -Wl,--fix-cortex-a8 -gcc-toolchain /home/$USER/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/to>
