# Compiling FreeType on Android using Termux
|
|
|
|
If you want to test FreeType on arm devices, compiling it on an Android
|
|
phone is one of the easiest ways.
|
|
|
|
## 1. Compiling FreeType
|
|
|
|
1. Install and open termux
|
|
|
|
2. Update termux packages using:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg update
|
|
pkg upgrade
|
|
```
|
|
Select `y` if any configuration changes are asked
|
|
|
|
3. Install `git`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install git
|
|
```
|
|
4. Install packages required for compilation:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install automake autoconf libtool make clang binutils
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
5. Clone FreeType's git repository:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype/freetype.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
6. Enter into the source directory:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd freetype/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
7. Now you can compile FreeType according to [INSTALL_UNIX.md]:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure
|
|
make -j$(nproc)
|
|
```
|
|
The compiled binaries can be accessed under `objs/.libs`
|
|
|
|
## 2. Compiling FreeType Demo programs
|
|
If you need to test your changes you may want to use ft-demo
|
|
programs. They can be compiled and run by follwing these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. First compile FreeType using the steps above.
|
|
|
|
2. Clone FreeType demos adjacent to the `freetype/` directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype/freetype-demos.git
|
|
```
|
|
i.e. If you can access FreeType repo under `~/freetype`, you should
|
|
be able to access `~/freetype-demos`.
|
|
|
|
3. Enter into the ft-demos directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd freetype-demos
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Compile the programs:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
5. The compiled binaries can be accessed and executed under `bin/` like:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd bin
|
|
./ftlint
|
|
```
