Building the client library: -=============================== - -The Android client is built as a static library that you can -link into your own Android native code. There are two ways to -build it: - -I.1. Building with ndk-build: ------------------------------ - -If you're using the ndk-build build system, you can follow -these simple steps: - - 1/ Include android/google_breakpad/Android.mk from your own - project's Android.mk - - This can be done either directly, or using ndk-build's - import-module feature. - - 2/ Link the library to one of your modules by using: - - LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES += breakpad_client - -NOTE: The client library requires a C++ STL implementation, - which you can select with APP_STL in your Application.mk - - It has been tested succesfully with both STLport and GNU libstdc++ - - -I.2. Building with a standalone Android toolchain: --------------------------------------------------- - -All you need to do is configure your build with the right 'host' -value, and disable the processor and tools, as in: - - $GOOGLE_BREAKPAD_PATH/configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi \ - --disable-processor \ - --disable-tools - make -j4 - -The library will be under src/client/linux/libbreakpad_client.a - -You can also use 'make check' to run the test suite on a connected -Android device. This requires the Android 'adb' tool to be in your -path. - -II. Using the client library in Android: -======================================== - -The usage instructions are very similar to the Linux ones that are -found at https://chromium.googlesource.com/breakpad/breakpad/+/master/docs/linux_starter_guide.md - -1/ You need to include "client/linux/handler/exception_handler.h" from a C++ - source file. - -2/ If you're not using ndk-build, you also need to: - - - add the following to your compiler include search paths: - $GOOGLE_BREAKPAD_PATH/src - $GOOGLE_BREAKPAD_PATH/src/common/android/include - - - add -llog to your linker flags - - Note that ndk-build does that for your automatically. - -3/ Keep in mind that there is no /tmp directory on Android. - - If you use the library from a regular Android applications, specify a - path under your app-specific storage directory. An alternative is to - store them on the SDCard, but this requires a specific permission. - -For a concrete example, see the sample test application under -android/sample_app. See its README for more information. - - -III. Getting a stack trace on the host: -======================================= - -This process is similar to other platforms, but here's a quick example: - -1/ Retrieve the minidumps on your development machine. - -2/ Dump the symbols for your native libraries with the 'dump_syms' tool. - This first requires building the host version of Google Breakpad, then - calling: - - dump_syms $PROJECT_PATH/obj/local/$ABI/libfoo.so > libfoo.so.sym - -3/ Create the symbol directory hierarchy. - - The first line of the generated libfoo.so.sym will have a "MODULE" - entry that carries a hexadecimal version number, e.g.: - - MODULE Linux arm D51B4A5504974FA6ECC1869CAEE3603B0 test_google_breakpad - - Note: The second field could be either 'Linux' or 'Android'. - - Extract the version number, and a 'symbol' directory, for example: - - $PROJECT_PATH/symbols/libfoo.so/$VERSION/ - - Copy/Move your libfoo.sym file there. - -4/ Invoke minidump_stackwalk to create the stack trace: - - minidump_stackwalk $MINIDUMP_FILE $PROJECT_PATH/symbols - -Note that various helper scripts can be found on the web to automate these -steps. - -IV. Verifying the Android build library: -======================================== - -If you modify Google Breakpad and want to check that it still works correctly -on Android, please run the android/run-checks.sh script which will do all -necessary verifications for you. This includes: - - - Rebuilding the full host binaries. - - Rebuilding the full Android binaries with configure/make. - - Rebuilding the client library unit tests, and running them on a device. - - Rebuilding the client library with ndk-build. - - Building, installing and running a test crasher program on a device. - - Extracting the corresponding minidump, dumping the test program symbols - and generating a stack trace. - - Checking the generated stack trace for valid source locations. - -For more details, please run: - - android/run-checks.sh --help-all |
