The Intel(R) C++ Compiler for Android* supports multiple Android NDKs usually (please check the product release notes for details).

The Intel C++ Compiler is integrated into one Android NDK specified during installation just like before. If there are multiple Android NDK installed, the script tool below coming with Intel C++ Compiler for Android can be used for integrating to additional Android NDK:

• [icc-install-dir]/toolchains/ndk_integration.sh on Linux* or OS X*
• [icc-install-dir]\toolchains\ndk_integration.cmd on Windows*
  For example, if you are using Intel(R) INDE product, default [icc-install-dir] will be C:\Intel\INDE\icc_android on Windows.

To integrate the Intel C++ Compiler for Android to a different Android NDK, follow the steps below:

1. Assume that:
   • Intel C++ Compiler for Android is installed to [icc-install-dir]
   • The additional Android NDK is installed to [new-ndk-dir]
2. On Linux* or OS X*:
   • Open a terminal window
   • cd [icc-install-dir]/toolchains/
   • ./ndk_integration.sh [new-ndk-dir]
   After running above commands, the Intel C++ compiler toolchain should be installed to [new-ndk-dir]/toolchains/x86-icc. "x86-icc" will be available in the ndk build environment.
3. On Windows*:
   • Open a command window
   • cd [icc-install-dir]\toolchains\
   • .\ndk_integration.cmd [new-ndk-dir]

   After running above commands, the Intel C++ compiler toolchain “x86-icc” will be available in the ndk build environment.should be installed to [new-ndk-dir]\toolchains\x86-icc. "x86-icc" will be available in the ndk build environment.

This sample applies to:
Products: Intel® INDE; Intel® System Studio
Host OS: Windows (IA-32, Intel® 64); OS X*; Linux*
Target OS: Android*
