Prerequisites

• Android Studio: 2.3.0 or higher.
• Android SDK: N Developer Preview or higher.
• Android NDK: r12 beta or higher.

Sample Import

To import the samples, follow the steps below:

Step 1: Build shaderc in the NDK

From the command-prompt, navigate to the ${ndk_root}/sources/third_party/shaderc directory. Then, run the following command:

../../../ndk-build NDK_PROJECT_PATH=. APP_BUILD_SCRIPT=Android.mk APP_STL:=[gnustl_static|gnustl_shared|c++_static|c++_shared] APP_ABI=[armeabi-v7a|arm64-v8a|x86|x86_64|all] libshaderc_combined -j16

For this project, the APP_STL value is set to use the gnustl_static port, as all the project samples are using it.

Step 2: Import the samples into Android Studio

You can use one of the following methods to install this project in Android Studio:

• Import Android Code Sample: Choose Import an Android code sample, then search for and select Vulkan API samples. Android Studio downloads the sample code directly from Github.
• Import Project: Use this method only if you've already cloned this project from GitHub into a local repo. From Android Studio, choose Import project (Eclipse, ADT, Gradle) and select the build.gradle file located at the root of your local repo directory.

Note: This project includes 40+ samples and may take time to load on some platforms, such as Windows OS.
