Hello.

I try to use my module for Android and first I need templates. I can't get templates because I get this error message:

android-ndk-r13/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.9/include/bits/stl_algobase.h:59:28: fatal error: bits/c++config.h: No such file or directory
 #include <bits/c++config.h>
                            ^
compilation terminated.
scons: *** [modules/mymodule/register_types.android.opt.debug.armv7.neon.o] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

I use:

$ scons platform=android target=release_debug

My system is ubuntu 64 bits

I can't solve this problem alone, please I need help.

Thank you.

While hacking a bit at the buildsystem for an unrelated upcoming PR, I noticed that platform/android/detect.py has an android_stl option that defaults to no.

Building with scons p=android android_stl=yes might be the solution to your problem.
You can check existing build options with scons p=android --help.
