解析libcurl在android下的移植、编译与测试

由于项目需要在NDK中使用网络开发，对于c语言网络开发来说，libcurl库是个很不错的选择，但android系统中并没有自带该库，所以就得自己移植了。
下面是移植步骤：
1.  下载curl源码
我这里下载的是curl-7.22.0，源码下载地址为：http://curl.haxx.se/download.html

2. 准备android源码编译环境，
android源码应已全部编译过，具体细节这里不详述，我这里使用的是android2.2 froyo源码树。
3.  在android中编译curl
在最新的curl源码里其实已经带有Android.mk这个编译文件了，而且在这文件的开头注释部分比较详细地介绍编译方法。
1）拷贝curl源码至android源码树下的external/curl
2）cd 到 external/curl目录下，输入（红色字部分根据自己的环境做相应的更改）：
代码如下:
ANDROID_HOME=/home/braincol/workspace/android/froyo && \
NDK_HOME=/home/braincol/workspace/android/froyo/ndk && \

-lm $ANDROID_HOME/out/target/product/generic/obj/lib/crtbegin_dynamic.o \
-L$ANDROID_HOME/external/curl/3rd/libs"

如果$ANDROID_HOME目录下没有ndk的开发包，那么到google的官网上下载一个放进去就行了。
3）cd 到源码根目录 mmm extern/libcurl：
编译完成之后，会生成静态库：out/target/product/generic/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libcurl_intermediates/libcurl.a  。
4）如果要生成动态库需要修改curl下的Android.mk ：
代码如下:
LOCAL_PRELINK_MODULE := false
LOCAL_MODULE:= libcurl
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional
# Copy the licence to a place where Android will find it.
# Actually, this doesn't quite work because the build system searches
# for NOTICE files before it gets to this point, so it will only be seen
# on subsequent builds.
ALL_PREBUILT += $(LOCAL_PATH)/NOTICE
$(LOCAL_PATH)/NOTICE: $(LOCAL_PATH)/COPYING | $(ACP)
$(copy-file-to-target)
#include $(BUILD_STATIC_LIBRARY)
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)

4.  在android中测试curl
1）在android froyo源码树中下建立一个mytest目录，该目录下再建立一个curltest目录。
2）在目录curtest下创建curl-test.cpp：
代码如下:
#include
 "curl/curl.h"#include
 <stdio.h>;int
main() {     CURL
 *curl;     CURLcode
 res;     curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);     curl
 = curl_easy_init();    if
(curl) {             curl_easy_setopt(curl,
 CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.cnblogs.com/hibraincol/");
        res
 = curl_easy_perform(curl);         if
(0!=res) {                  printf("curl
 error: %d\n",
 res);                 }                 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);   
    } 
     curl_global_cleanup();    return
0;}

3）在目录curtest下创建Android.mk：
代码如下:
#
 curl test executable#LOCAL_PATH
 := $(call my-dir)include
 $(CLEAR_VARS) LOCAL_C_INCLUDES
 += \    $(LOCAL_PATH)/3rd/include LOCAL_class="lazy" data-src_FILES:=
 curl-test.cpp #
 No shared libraries.LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES
 := #
 No static libraries.LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES
 := libcurl LOCAL_MODULE
 := curl-testinclude
 $(BUILD_EXECUTABLE)

4）把libcurl的头文件拷贝到curtest目录下的3rd/include目录下：
cp -rf out/target/product/generic/obj/include/libcurl/curl  mytest/curltest/3rd/include
5）到android源码树的根目录下：mmm /mytest/curltest/
代码如下:
braincol@ubuntu:~/workspace/android/froyo$ mmm mytest/curltest/
============================================
PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL
PLATFORM_VERSION=2.2
TARGET_PRODUCT=generic
TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng
TARGET_SIMULATOR=
TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release
TARGET_BUILD_APPS=
TARGET_ARCH=arm
HOST_ARCH=x86
HOST_OS=linux
HOST_BUILD_T YPE=release
BUILD_ID=MASTER
============================================
make: Entering directory `/home/braincol/workspace/android/froyo'
target thumb C++: curl-test <= mytest/curltest/curl-test.cpp
mytest/curltest/curl-test.cpp:2:19: warning: extra tokens at end of #include directive
target Executable: curl-test (out/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/curl-test_intermediates/LINKED/curl-test)
target Non-prelinked: curl-test (out/target/product/generic/symbols/system/bin/curl-test)
target Strip: curl-test (out/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/curl-test_intermediates/curl-test)
Install: out/target/product/generic/system/bin/curl-test
make: Leaving directory `/home/braincol/workspace/android/froyo'

可以看到在out/target/product/generic/system/bin/下生成了curl-test这个测试程序。
6）将curl-test拷贝到真机或者模拟器中运行。
  a.我这里是在android真机的根目录下建立了一个test目录.
  b.然后通过adb push将curl-test拷贝到该目录下，并更改curl-test为可执行权限：chmod 777 curl-test.
  c. adb shell 进入shell控制台，然后cd到test目录下， ./curl-test  执行，可以看到打印出的网页源码，移植成功。
 
这样在之后的android app开发中，如果需要用到libcurl的库，就可以直接out/target/product/generic/obj/include/libcurl/curl里的头文件和out/target/product/generic/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libcurl_intermediates/libcurl.a拿到app工程中去用就行了。
