how to build first app on Rhomobile

Question

I have installed Rhostudion and when creating first Rhomobile Project and run as rhomobile app then it works well in Rho simulator. When I run as device on android platform then it shows an error as below:

rake aborted! Build failed: rhodes

Tasks: TOP => run:android:device => run:android:device:build => device:android:debug => package:android => build:android:all => build:android:rhodes => build:android:librhodes

Using RhoStudion Version 5.4.0 ndk version android-ndk-r11c

After running on Rhosimulator as android platform, how can i get the apk?

Answer 1

You can find the guide on how to setup RhoMobile for Android development on the documentation website.
I'm not sure that NDK r11c is currently supported, just keep in mind that you need to have the Android SDK as well with one Android API SDK installed (minimum Level 10).
For question linked to RhoMobile may be worthwhile to use Zebra Technologies' Launchpad that is the main community for RhoMobile developers.
