how to make a native application with a normal main function ?

[Pikachuk 2]

Hello, i make this post because i don't understand at all why would the fact to make a simple C++ app require java while it should just run natively through the hardware
i simply want to make a c++ app with a main method that starts it and use a console without writing any java code, not even the function declaration
how could i make it ?
(even making a 3ds homebrew is easier than making a legit native android application, it shows how much the thing is not well implemented)

If you want to make a console app then just do what you described. Use BUILD_EXECUTABLE instead of BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY in ndk-build, or add_executable in cmake. Android behaves pretty much the same was as any other linux distro from the perspective of an executable.
