Creating executable with NDK

[Mina Shokry]

Hello,
Can I use NDK to build a native executable (not a library)?
I want to port an existing code that compiles to an executable. I am
not the writer of this code. So, digging into it and export functions
I need in a library isn't an easy task for me.

thanks in advance.

sure you can, read the NDK hello world doc to getting started.

include $(BUILD_EXECUTABLE)

instead of

include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)

Thank you, it works.

but I still can not run the resulted executable on emulator.

I used "adb push" to move the executable to the sdcard and I tried to
run it but I got a "permission denied" message. The file doesn't have
an executable permission. chmod didn't help!
Is this because sdcard is formatted as FAT32? so, what a directory I
can move the file to to try?

thanks again.

You cannot run executables from the SD Card's FAT partition. Very intentionally I might add.
You need to copy the file to another location (/data/misc maybe?)
