How to use Java with NDK Android?

I am assuming that using the OpenCV code here: http://github.com/billmccord/OpenCV-Android#readme is the best way to use OpenCV on Android, with the NDK.

I am still stuck as to how I get from the C definitions of functions to the ones I declare in OpenCV.java in my Android project

cvFindContours( void*  img,  CvMemStorage*  storage, 
                CvSeq**  firstContour, int  cntHeaderSize, 
                int  mode, 
                int  method, CvPoint offset ) --> findContours(int[] 
data, int w, int h) ) 

Any help/pointers appreciated, even where to start to figure this out. I currently want to use cvHoughCircles, cvHoughCircles(CvArr* image, void* circle_storage, int method, double dp, double min_dist, double param1 = 100, double param2 = 300, int min_radius = 0, int max_radius = 0};

How do I writ开发者_C百科e this in java with ndk for android?

Does your app require the C interface? OpenCV actually considers it deprecated / done with, the new API is C++. A port of this interface and sample calibration app are here: http://code.google.com/p/android-opencv/

It took me a while to get sold on the new C++, but I had to admit it was nice to not have to do cvReleaseMat() and go back and forth between IplImage and CvMat all the time. Opencv 2.1 doc: http://opencv.willowgarage.com/documentation/cpp/index.html

Look at the Android samples within the ndk (hello-jni). They are in the apps directory of the NDK. They show how to import the library and call native methods. On C side of things you have to give your methods the proper jni naming conventions Java_...fully qualified java class name, make methods external and also include to make them accessable.

Also the docs directory of the NDK has all the documentation on building and running native code.
