Question
Is there any info about the future of extending the safe C++ header list in the NDK (or maybe some hints to what might be safe to use) ? Or how soon we can expect the next NDK update? Also will there be any tutorials and documentation comming out for the NDK?
Thanks
Solution
i'm not aware of any announcements regarding future plans.
the samples are here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/1.6_r1/index.html#samples
and the NDK itself contains documentation in the form of .txt files in the docs/ directory.
OTHER TIPS
If you are interested in using C++ with the Android NDK you should check out the modified NDK by CrystaX. He has rebuilt the Android NDK so that it has full support for C++, including C++ Exceptions, RTTI (Run Time Type Identification) and the Standard C++ Library.
There aren't that many changes, in fact CrystaX offers a link to the complete patch file from his website.
