Can it work on android? Aarch64 about box64 HOT 12 OPEN

Box64 now have a ANDROID build profile, like box86. With this profile, box64 should be able to build with android NDK and run Android x86_64 binary (not linux x86_64 binary), like box86.

This build is untested, as Android support is minimum (it build, that's all that is checked)

Not directly for now. But it can run on proot/termux/whatever solution to get linux on android.

But porting to android in your ToDo?

I tried to compile box64 inside termux in my aarch64 phone, and i got a lot of errors from clang. One of them was use of undeclared identifier 'info'

I haven't tried building box64 with clang. Can you use gcc instead?

I tried using gcc from it's pointless repo, but cmake fails, it might be related to this issue: termux/termux-packages#6960

from box64.

The only way I can bypass this is by replacing the line include(Platform/Android/abi-${CMAKE_ANDROID_ARCH_ABI}-GNU) with include(Platform/Android/abi-arm64-v8a-GNU) on $PREFIX/share/cmake-3.21/Modules/Platform/Android-GNU.cmake. And surprisingly enough, there isn't as many errors in GCC compared to Clang, but still, it can't be compiled on Termux until there's some patch to make it work on Termux

There's this video but it uses proot https://youtu.be/TMV3Fp5YhTs

I want to make it work on native termux, not just in a prooted linux distro

from box64.

Also why is this issue closed? Can someone reopen it again?

from box64.

I have reopenned the issue.
The issue is not realy cland/gcc here. It's Android. I didn't noticed this was the "Android" ticket. If you look at box86, the Android build has a lot of #ifdef'd parts, because Android is not 100% linux.
