##Add Native Support

On Eclipse package explorer, right click on the project, and select following menu

Android Tools > Add Native Support

Here, type to a form 'yuv420spDecoder'

Now, a 'jni' directory has been created at the project root. Also auto generated Android.mk in 'jni'.

jni/Android.mk

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE    := yuv420spDecoder
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := yuv420spDecoder.cpp
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)

##Create Method

Define the native method in the class of JAVA

src/zyxw/project/cocopuri/util/Yuv420SpDecoder.java

private native static final void nYuv420spToRgb(ByteBuffer oBuf, ByteBuffer iBuf, int width, int height);

Also ok 'public', 'non-static', 'final', etc…

Run 'javah' Comand

Terminal

javah -classpath bin/classes -d jni zyxw.project.cocopuri.util.Yuv420SpDecoder

Generated A File

Auto generated a following file in 'jni'

jni/zyxw_project_cocopuri_util_Yuv420SpDecoder.h

##About Overload

src/zyxw/project/cocopuri/util/Yuv420SpDecoder.java

	private native final void toNegative(ByteBuffer buf, int w, int h);

	private native boolean toNegative(String inputFileName, String outputFileName);

If overload method exists, signatures would be added to native method's name. (Of course, auto generated with javah)

jni/zyxw_project_cocopuri_util_Yuv420SpDecoder.h

/*
 * Class:     com_example_opencv_nativetest_FullscreenActivity
 * Method:    toNegative
 * Signature: (Ljava/nio/ByteBuffer;II)V
 */
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_com_example_opencv_nativetest_FullscreenActivity_toNegative__Ljava_nio_ByteBuffer_2II

Difference of JDK version

Difference of JDK 6.x and 7.x

Case of java 6.x, javah command is

Terminal

javah -classpath bin/classes -d jni <Target Java class>

But, run same command on Java 7.x,

Error: cannot access android.app.Activity
class file for android.app.Activity not found

This error returned…

So, try the following command (on Java 7.x)

Terminal

javah -classpath bin/classes;<Path to Android-SDK>/platforms/android-<Target SDK version>/android.jar -d jni <Target Java class>

This time, Permission denied is returned…

Solution

Use Java 6!

If wanna use Java 7, Install both, and run following command

Terminal

<Path to Java 6>/javah -classpath bin/classes -d jni <Target Java class>
