Which android ndk version should be used with xamarin.android 6.1

Question

Xamarin does not specify a version for android ndk to use and in the screen shot at Manual Xamarin.android installation page it shows r9d version witch is old. so should i install that specific version or the latest stable version witch is r12b at this moment. currently i am using r10 witch seems to be working currently ....

And also x86 or x64? I am on windows8.1 X64

Answer 1

Xamarin.Android Version: 6.1.99.224 is using android-ndk-r10d .

The current xamarin-android build in github is using android-ndk-r11c :

Answer 2

对于Xamarin.Android 7，您可以使用NDK r11c，Xamarin无法识别较新的版本，因为文件是由Google重命名的。
