Other contributors:
- Following development environment setups are used to build aTalk.apk
a. Android Studio Hedgehog | 2023.1.1 Patch
b. distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.5-bin.zip c. classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.2.2' d. Ubuntu 22.04 with proper environment setup for development
Note: all shell scripts in aTalk are written to run on linux OS only e.g. Ubuntu - aTalk uses native jni libraries, required to be built manually or downloaded prior to android NDK build.
The static jni libraries must be built prior to android studio apk build process. - You must run the gradle task 'initJniLibs' to build all the jni libraries used in aTalk.
See aTalk/jni/static_library_build directory readme files for more information
on linux environment setup, and the execution of jni libraries build scripts. - You must run the gradle task 'getJniLibs' to fetch the jni libraries prior to android ndk build process.
These libraries sources include: opus, speex and ogg
Cannot found an UI language and would like to help; translate the content in strings.xml.
