Cannot build to Android
Monkey Targets Forums/Android/Cannot build to Android
| ||
| I am currently working through the book Monkey Game Development and am on Chapter 5, which was creating my first App for Android. I am at a complete loss on how to compile it into android. I Installed java jdk, Ant 1.8.2, and the android SDK. It gives me the option to build to Android, but when I try I get the error "C:/Users/Josh/Documents/Monkey/chainreaction/ftFunctions.monkey<4> : Error : File 'C:/Users/Josh/Documents/Monkey/chainreaction/native/fantomengine.android.java' not found. Abnormal program termination. Exit code: -1" The app is called chainreaction.monkey, and uses fantomEngine.monkey and ftFunctions.monkey to run. Any help would be appreciated. |

| Does it work on another of the other targets? Also check in your module/fantomEngine/native folder, can you see fantomengine.android.java? |

| It works for html5 and Flash, which are the only two I've used yet. And I don't have a native folder, let alone a fantomengine.android.java, I tried just taking the monkey code for fantomEngine and renaming it to fantomengine.android.java in a new folder called native, and it passed the error (Onto a new one of course), but I somehow doubt I'm supposed to call something made to be .monkey into .android.java . In case I somehow stumbled into doing it correctly, this is the new error I'm getting. "-build-setup: [echo] Resolving Build Target for MonkeyGame...

| Firstly, I'd suggest you redownload fantomEngine: http://code.google.com/p/fantomengine/downloads/detail?name=fantomEngine_V142.zip&can=2&q= In this zip I can see the fantomengine.android.java in the fantomEngine/native folder. Second, the "Unable to resolve project target 'android-13'" sounds like you havent set up Android correctly yet. Check here: http://sagistech.blogspot.com.au/2010/05/android-sdk-error-unable-to-resolve.html I would try to fix your Android error first, try running one of the examples (eg bouncyaliens) on your device, then get fantom working. |

| Well, I got fantom working, unfortunately I cant seem to get the android problem figured out. I used the SDK Manager to install 4.1 before I even posted here, yet the error is saying I'm missing 3.1, and it won't let me download previous versions.

| I had the same problem.... You need to download Android 3.2 (Api 13) using the android SDK manager.... Then create a AVD device using api 13 with the android AVD manager... Now it should work ok ;) |
