This Android archive allows use of @<@PROJECT_NAME@>@ in your Android project, without needing to copy any SDL source.
For integration with CMake/ndk-build, it uses [prefab](https://google.github.io/prefab/).
Copy this archive (@<@PROJECT_NAME@>@-@<@PROJECT_VERSION@>@.aar) to a `app/libs` directory of your project.
In `app/build.gradle` of your Android project, add:
```
android {
/* ... */
buildFeatures {
prefab true
}
}
dependencies {
implementation files('libs/@<@PROJECT_NAME@>@-@<@PROJECT_VERSION@>@.aar')
/* ... */
}
```
If you're using CMake, add the following to your CMakeLists.txt:
```
find_package(@<@PROJECT_NAME@>@ REQUIRED CONFIG)
target_link_libraries(yourgame PRIVATE @<@PROJECT_NAME@>@::@<@PROJECT_NAME@>@)
```
If you use ndk-build, add the following before `include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)` to your `Android.mk`:
```
LOCAL_SHARED_LIBARARIES := SDL3 SDL3-Headers
```
And add the following at the bottom:
```
# https://google.github.io/prefab/build-systems.html
# Add the prefab modules to the import path.
$(call import-add-path,/out)
# Import @<@PROJECT_NAME@>@ so we can depend on it.
$(call import-module,prefab/@<@PROJECT_NAME@>@)
```
---
For advanced users:
If you want to build a 3rd party library outside Gradle,
running the following command will extract the Android archive into a more common directory structure.
```
python @<@PROJECT_NAME@>@-@<@PROJECT_VERSION@>@.aar -o android_prefix
```
Add `--help` for a list of all available options.
Look at the example programs in ./test (of the source archive), and check out online documentation:
