Android NDK configurations

Question

When compiling a windows app with VS, I can choose between debug and release . I often get a 10x increase in speed using release. Is there such an option to set when compiling an NDK app for Android? Or is it always release (or always debug )?

Answer 1

You can build in release or debug using the APP_OPTIM variable in your Application.mk file.

APP_OPTIM := debug

or

APP_OPTIM := release
