How to use toolchain

[linxiaobo]

Hi,
I am trying to cross-compile a linux software to Android-x86 platform.
I know that there is a toolchain under android/prebuilt/linux-x86/
toolchain/.arm-eabi-4.4.0,

I am so confused how to use this toolchain. Could you give an
instruction?

Thanks

Hi,
Please do not use arm-eabi-4.4.0, it is for ARM architecture
Use x86 for Android-x86
There are several ways to do that
You can use NDK to build your software : http://www.android-x86.org/documents/ndk-how-to
Or you can cross compile directly, here is an example

#!/bin/bash
#[0] Point to NDK directory
export NDK=/media/DATA/Android/NDK/ndk

PREBUILT=$NDK/build/prebuilt/linux-x86/i686-unknown-linux-gnu-4.2.1
PLATFORM=$NDK/build/platforms/android-4/arch-x86
GCC=i686-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc
CROSPREFIX=i686-unknown-linux-gnu
NM=i686-unknown-linux-gnu-nm
ELF=$PREBUILT/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/ldscripts/elf_i386.x
ARCH=x86
CRTBEGIN=$PREBUILT/lib/gcc/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/4.2.1/crtbegin.o
CRTEND=$PREBUILT/lib/gcc/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/4.2.1/crtend.o

#[1] Do config
export configOption=--target-os=linux --arch=$ARCH --cc=$PREBUILT/bin/$GCC --cross-prefix=$PREBUILT/bin/$CROSPREFIX- --nm=$PREBUILT/bin/$NM --extra-cflags="-fPIC -DANDROID"  --extra-ldflags="-Wl,-T,$ELF -Wl,-rpath-link=$PLATFORM/usr/lib -L$PLATFORM/usr/lib -nostdlib $CRTBEGIN $CRTEND -lc -lm -ldl" --prefix=$PLATFORM/usr
./configure $configOption
