Building sdk on Windows

[Yuri Cauwerts]

Ok, building an app works, now I want to dig into the code to get a better understanding and (maybe one day) solve some bugs.

I need some help from you smart guys ;-)

My first plan is to build the sdk on windows 8, next I might need some 30000 feet overview of the code, if anyone feels like writing a thread on this, please do!

First issue while building the sdk, it can't find sdkAndroid() which is referenced in buildsrc/android.gradle, though I think this is not the actual error, I get a nullpointerexception at the bottom...

My knowledge about gradle is limited.

Can anyone explain me what gradle is looking for? Where is (should) this method (be) defined?

Also what happens in android\build.gradle:785 

Desc:It generates JNI headers

properties.javahSource equals null when i println it.

println(source(project.sourceSets.main.output.classesDir)) returns the following lines in the output:

task ':graphics:javahAndroidGlass'

task ':graphics:javahAndroidPrism'

task ':graphics:javahAndroidPrismSW'

task ':graphics:javahAndroidFont'

task ':graphics:javahAndroidIio'

task ':graphics:javahAndroidPrismES2'

task ':graphics:javahAndroidPrismD3D'

Looking in the src, it appears Decora is missing in this list?? Is this generating the nullpointerexception? Where is the order of the above tasks defined? Is it because my DXSDK failed to install? (I saw a post from Richard Bair about this... *guess this is going to be my error*...)

When I run :

gradle -PANDROID_SDK=e:/adt/sdk -PANDROID_NDK=e:/android-ndk-r9b -PDEBUG -PDALVIK_VM=true -PBINARY_STUB=e:/jdk8/jre/lib/ext/jfxrt.jar -PFREETYPE_DIR=e:/freetype-2.5.0/install -PCOMPILE_TARGETS=android

I get the following error:

Failed to notify ProjectEvaluationListener.afterEvaluate(), but primary configuration failure takes precedence.

Trivia question:

 

What's faster?

A) Trying to get dx-sdk on windows8 so it builds correctly, 

B) Setup a new Hyper-V with a fresh installation of Ubuntu, setup your development environment, download all code for android-sdk,build it on linux and copy it to       Win8 via nodejs http-server (which you first have to install ofcourse).

I can confirm that B) is definitely faster... <sigh>...

Anyhow, I succeeded in builing android-sdk for javafx!

Forget to mention: It worked in ubuntu using gradle 1.9

Cool, congratulations!
