[Android]A bug of APK file building

dawnarc · October 16, 2016, 3:34pm

e.g. android NDK obj files of my project path is “TestProj\Intermediate\Android\APK\obj\local\armeabi-v7a”,
because I need to check stack of app that crashed in native code, so I would open this directory regularly.
If I open this directory in Windows File Explorer and build android apk again. following errors would occur:

these errors can’t be solved unless you remove all Intermediate files of project. I think UE4Editor should close these directories automatically or give some exact tips to .

Have you deleted your Saved and Intermediate folder out of your project folder to try and resolve this issue? Is your package completely failing? Could you upload the whole error output logs?

Thanks!

Yes, If I delete all Intermediate folder and rebuild again, this issue would be resolved. Sorry, whole log file maybe be deleted before, I can’t find it now.

Since deleting the Intermediate and Saved folders from the project has resolved your issue, please use this practice in the future. If you run into an issue where this doesn’t fix the problem you’re having, just let us know.

Thanks!
