Unfortunately the bootstrapping method is cumbersome and not developer friendly. If you want to build an addon that is not the repo, you have to create some files yourself. Build for example pvr.demo and check the cmake/addons folder for generated files. Modify those to fit you local addon.

Does post #1 need an update (for Windows) because xbmc\project\cmake is now xbmc\cmake?

// Edit: And the names of c-flag-overrides.cmake and cxx-flag-overrides.cmake have changed.

Windows build fails on my machine: http://pastebin.com/5xVr8Ak0
Line 74-81 error C2440: "return": "PTSTR" cannot be converted to "PSTR"
regarding source line xbmc\cmake\addons\build\depends\include\p8-platform/util/StdString.h(1019): inline PSTR SST2A(PTSTR p) { return p; }

We have changed the build system for PVR addons. Now they are built with cmake and every addon has its own repository.
CMake (http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake) generates the build environment required for a particular platform.

Team-Kodi provides the infrastructure to build PVR addons for the supported plattforms. The addons are maintained in their
own repositories from where the build process loads them. The repository is specified in a .txt file in the Kodi source
tree. For the pvr.demo addon this is in home/xbmc/progs/src/xbmc/project/cmake/addons/addons/pvr.demo/pvr.demo.txt.
You can clone this repository to any location of your system. You also need to clone the Kodi repository which contains
common files, libs, and API for the addons.

For setup of an development environment follow these steps. The examples are with absolute paths. You can substitute
the path to match your systems.



Windows:

Change to addons folder:

Code:

cd D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\addons\build

Generate build environment with config for debugging. This command generates a Visual Studio 2013 solution.

Code:

cmake -DADDONS_TO_BUILD="pvr.demo" -DADDON_SRC_PREFIX="D:\Projects" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G "Visual Studio 12"  -DCMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE="D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\scripts\windows\c-flag-overrides.cmake" -DCMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE_CXX="D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\scripts\windows\cxx-flag-overrides.cmake" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\addons" -DBUILD_DIR="D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\addons\build" -DPACKAGE_ZIP=1 "D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\addons"

Open Visual Studio, load and build this solution:

Code:

D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\addons\build\kodi-addons.sln

Setup Development Environment.

Open Visual Studio, load Kodi solution. Then add existing solution:

Code:

D:\Projects\xbmx\xbmc\project\cmake\addons\build\pvr.demo-prefix\src\pvr.demo-build\pvr.demo.sln

Create post-build step. Required to copy files for debugging

Create Post-Build Event in Visual Studio

Code:

Hi lads

i am getting issue to compile the pvr.demo addon.

basically its saing that i have a cmake generator error.

i am using vs2013 with 12.0 v120 to compile kodi 16 jarvis without any issues i can buil setup install.exe ok and kodi.exe app exe just fine no issues at all my only issue is building it with the addon also this is my log

This is my message log

opensource@opensource-PC MINGW64 /c/xbmc/project/cmake/addons/build (Jarvis)

$ cmake -DADDONS_TO_BUILD="pvr.demo" -DADDON_SRC_PREFIX="C:\xbmc" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G "Visual Studio 12" -DCMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE="C:\xbmc\project\cmake\scripts\windows\c-flag-overrides.cmake" -DCMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE_CXX="c:\xbmc\project\cmake\scripts\windows\cxx-flag-overrides.cmake" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="C:\xbmc\addons" -DBUILD_DIR="C:\xbmc\project\cmake\addons\build" -DPACKAGE_ZIP=1 "C:\xbmc\project\cmake\addons"

CMake Error: Error: generator : Visual Studio 12 2013
Does not match the generator used previously: NMake Makefiles
Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file and CMakeFiles directory or choose a different binary directory.

btw i am using cmake.exe 3.5x is that an issue or do i need a previous version?

Hey succussfully built kodi v17 krypton incl all pvr addons on windows 10 x64, just followed the how to here: http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Compile_Kodi_for_Windows
The BuildSetup.bat builds the complete kodi incl. all addons, youll get the kodi setup exe.

When you just want to build one addon (in my case pvr.mediaportal.tvserver) you have to run:

Code:

tools\buildsteps\win32\make-addons.bat addon pvr.mediaportal.tvserver

So far so good but ill want to modify something, in my case: project\cmake\addons\build\pvr.mediaportal.tvserver\src\GUIDialogRecordSettings.cpp
When ill do so and recompile with the above command the make-addons.bat extracting the source again and overwrites my changes.

What i am doing wrong?

thx

Update: I have created a solution using a modified version of this "prepare-addons-dev.bat" to work with VS 2015 (v14):

https://gist.github.com/Montellese/149ecbd5ca20941d2be4

make-addons.bat is used when packaging add-ons for release. If you're developing, there's another script you should use: tools\windows\prepare-binary-addons-dev.bat. This will download the source locally and build from there. Follow the descriptions in my README, particularly the Developing on Windows section.

Post the complete output of the configure command.
 

what about to install libtinyxml-dev ? sudo apt-get install libtinyxml-dev

That won't help. It would install the package for the host (x64) but not for android aarch64.

[el_gonz87]

Can someone shed some light on how I can compile a PVR addon for Android?

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with Kodi 17.5 Krypton to compile for an Android Fire Tablet 8 also running 17.5 Krypton.

I followed the Readme.android and created an ARM toolchain, then built the kodi dependencies sucessfully.

However I cannot get my addon to work at all, here are the 2 issues:

1) After a successful cmake with option -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/opt/xbmc-depends/arm-linux-androideabi-android-21/share/Toolchain_binaddons.cmake, I get the following error when I try to make:

Code:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.5/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:148 (message):
  Could NOT find TinyXML (missing: TINYXML_INCLUDE_DIR TINYXML_LIBRARIES)

  FindTinyXML.cmake:24 (FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS)
  CMakeLists.txt:9 (find_package)

Full terminal output of failed build at: https://pastebin.com/DeEd7kJw

2) If I cmake with -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/opt/xbmc-depends/arm-linux-androideabi-android-21/share/Toolchain.cmake, the build is successful, but the addon does not load in Kodi for a couple of reasons:

1. The original package zip, had the addon XML pointing to libpvr.iptvsimple.dvr.so, which upon inspection was a symlink to libpvr.iptvsimple.dvr.so.2.4.15 and the kodi log produced the following error

1. If I changed the addon XML to point reference libpvr.iptvsimple.dvr.so.2.4.15, then the addon also failed to load due to a different error:

Is there something big I am missing here This is giving me a heck of a headache...

EDIT:

Welp, 30 mins after posting I think I've answered my own question... Looks like for android, the addons must be either:
1) Packaged with Kodi in an APK (so I have to rebuild kodi with my addon, and every timw I update...)
2) Create a wrapper APK that will install addon into the kodi directory....

Yikes! Back to the drawing board....

1.) add your addon to (a clone of) https://github.com/xbmc/repo-binary-addons/
if you use a clone, see https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master.../bootstrap on how to use that
2.) the tinyxml dependency is then automatically added
3.) as you have already figured out, you have to build kodi with all binary addons included

Thanks I was trying to build latest IPTV Simple client so it definitely found it in the repo for bin addons because of the cmake output. The issue was using Toolchain_binaddons.cmake was not working, if I use Toolchain.cmake, it works.
I checked the tools/depends/target by using "make -C target/binary-addons ADDONS="pvr.iptvsimple" and when it executed, it used Toolchain.cmake, so this must be the appropriate call.

So I've build APK sucessfully, but get the following error when enabling a binary addon:

10:10:47.388 T:18446744073573319120   DEBUG: PVR - Create - creating PVR add-on instance 'Tvheadend HTSP Client'

10:10:47.389 T:18446744073573319120   ERROR: UpdateAddons - failed to create add-on Tvheadend HTSP Client, status = 6

I checked to make sure those dependencies where built, and they exist but like this:

gonzalo@GONZALO-S256GB:/opt/xbmc-depends/arm-linux-androideabi-android-21/lib/kodi/addons/pvr.hts$ ls -l
total 6328
lrwxrwxrwx 1 gonzalo gonzalo      18 Jan 20 02:10 libpvr.hts.so -> libpvr.hts.so.17.5
lrwxrwxrwx 1 gonzalo gonzalo      20 Jan 20 02:10 libpvr.hts.so.17.5 -> libpvr.hts.so.3.4.27
-rw-r--r-- 1 gonzalo gonzalo 6479076 Jan 20 02:10 libpvr.hts.so.3.4.27
gonzalo@GONZALO-S256GB:/opt/xbmc-depends/arm-linux-androideabi-android-21/lib/kodi/addons/pvr.hts$

When I look at addon.xml, it points to libpvr.hts.so, but this is a symlink and it cannot resolve it to libprv.hts.so.17.5 which is also a symlink and resolves to libpvr.hts.so.3.4.27 which is the actual binary.... My head hurts!

Is there a reason the addons build with symlinks? how can I fix this?

EDIT: just for fun I tried changing the addon.xml to library_android="libpvr.iptvsimple.so.3.4.27", and it says could not locate either... I'm puzzled, but it seems as if the final APK does not contain these files.

Is there a way for us to use <Python.h> in binary addons when cross compiling?

If I build natively for linux, it builds no problem (after installing python-dev).

However if I try to cross-compile for android, I got stuck at:
Could NOT find PythonLibs (missing:  PYTHON_LIBRARIES PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIRS)

I went and looked at the toolchain, to determine where it was looking for the libs at. After copying libpython2.7.a and include from xbmc/tools/depends/target/python27 to xbmc/tools/depends/target/binarry_addons/build/depends

Then it build sucessfully as it was able to find the python library compiled by the toolchain for android, but when I run my addon I get the following in log:
could not locate symbol GENERAL_NAME_free required by ...

Can anyone point me in the right direction, I'm trying to compile the following addon for Android:

Hello, 
i'm try to compile the pvr.demo addons in Windows, with visual studio 2019, but when i have the two solution correctly generated, how i can generate the pvr.demo with my changes?
Where i must edit and recompile when i need to edit the code of pvr.demo? In kodi.sln or in kodi-addon.sln? when i recompile the solution, the changes of the addon are in the kodi-build/addon or in cmake/addons/build/pvr.demo-prefix/src/pvr.demo-build?

Sorry for the bad english and the stupid question...

How does one handle the p8-platform dependency when building like that (for Android)? I get it to pick up my source code but it fails to resolve that dependency.
