How I can add -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 in Cmake config file. I'm trying to add as cflag in build.gradle but it not work.
externalNativeBuild {
cmake {
cppFlags ""
cFlags "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64"
arguments "-DANDROID_TOOLCHAIN=gcc"
}
}

Answer 1

In the CMakeLists.txt file, I do something like:
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=gnu++11")
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -D__ANDROID__ -DANDROID -DCUSTOM_FLAG")
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -DGL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES=1 -DIOAPI_NO_64 -DUSE_FILE32API ")
However, you can use gradle too, but externalNativeBuild needs to be under defaultConfig or release or debug (a build flavor) for cmake options to pass the flags.
For Example:
android {
compileSdkVersion 25
buildToolsVersion '25.0.3'
defaultConfig {
applicationId "..."
externalNativeBuild {
cmake {
// here, arguments, cppFlags, cFlags, .. all work
arguments '-DANDROID_PLATFORM=android-15',
'-DANDROID_TOOLCHAIN=clang', '-DANDROID_STL=gnustl_static',
'-DANDROID_CPP_FEATURES=rtti exceptions'
}
}
}
externalNativeBuild {
cmake {
// only 'path' variable is valid here
path '../../gameSource/CMakeLists.txt'
}
}
buildTypes {
release {
// .. release flavor
}
debug {
//... debug flavor
}
}
}
