使用时构建问题 <cmath> 用android ndk

Question

I have a simple file stlTest2.cpp like this:

#include <jni.h>

#include <cmath>


bool isnan (void);

There is something more complicated in some code I am porting. My question is this. Why would this work when building using GCC outside of the NDK, but not with using the NDK? There error it gives is this:

jni/stlTest2.cpp:6: error: expected unqualified-id before 'sizeof'
jni/stlTest2.cpp:6: error: expected ')' before 'sizeof'

The immediate reason for this is that math.h (included via <cmath> ) defines isnan as a macro. Why is the build outside of the ndk not including the #define from math.h , but this is? If I comment out the includes in the code, all is fine, but that is not acceptable as this problem repeats itself.... a lot.

Answer 1

The isnan macro was added in C99. In C++11 it was added as a function in the std namespace, overloaded for float and double and long double (so a typical <cmath> header, such as your non-NDK GCC is probably using, might have something like this:

#undef isnan

inline bool isnan(float ...) { ... }

inline bool isnan(double ...) { ... }

inline bool isnan(long double ...) { ... }

), but apparently the NDK hasn't gotten the memo, and is still providing the C99 macro as a convenience. ( isnan was never a macro in C++, but before TR1 added std::tr1::isnan , there wasn't really a C++ alternative, so multiple C++ compilers provided the C99 macro.)

Do you need to be able to use the compiler-provided isnan or std::isnan ? If not, then you can just change this:

#include <cmath>

to this:

#include <cmath>

#undef isnan

(and similarly for any other problematic macros, provided you don't need them).

Answer 2

In $ndk\\sources\\cxx-stl\\gnu-libstdc++\\libs\\armeabi\\include\\bits\\c++config.h (change armeabi to whatever is appropriate) change this:

/* #undef _GLIBCXX_USE_C99_MATH */

to

#define _GLIBCXX_USE_C99_MATH 1

Then clean and build your project again.
