HAve you tried using these instructions? https://github.com/joyent/libuv#android

[alexcrichton]

I tried using those instructions, but they didn't quite work out for me. I ran into numerous problems running the script, but when I got it configured I get make errors such as https://gist.github.com/alexcrichton/9858498.

I'm not entirely sure why gcc isn't being invoked correctly, but it looks like it's attempting to build with -arch x86_64 even though the target_arch to gyp is arm. I don't really fully understand gyp though, so I may be doing something wrong!

[saghul]

Do you have these binaries in your toolchain? https://github.com/joyent/libuv/blob/master/android-configure#L11-L14

I'll give it a try myself, but it'll take me a bit...

[alexcrichton]

I do indeed, I think that gyp may just be passing through the wrong flags, or expecting ARM on OSX to be for iOS rather than android?

[xudejian]

yeah, it's work for me

[abhinavsingh]

nvmind, I see attached patch helps me proceed, thanks.

[saghul]

@abhinavsingh the attached patch is a bit of a hack. We need a better way to this, alas I couldn't find the time to dig into it. If you have any idea on how to do it properly, that would be great :-)

[bnoordhuis]

I think this can be closed as no longer relevant now that rust has dropped libuv? Or is it applicable outside of cross-compiling rust?

[abhinavsingh]

Ben, I encountered this when I was compiling C code (depending upon libuv)
using NDK build system for Android.
