Cannot compilate ProjectGroup with dynamic library

[Delpher2600 0]

Hello. I made ProjectGroup from host FMX-project and dynamic library-project (.so). I'm using standart code for call export function:

{$IFDEF MSWINDOWS}
  procedure DStart; external 'DLLName.dll';
 {$ENDIF}

 {$IFDEF ANDROID}
  procedure DStart; external 'libDLLName.so';
  {$ENDIF}

And when i tryed compilate it for Android. Delphi fired out with next error:

[DCC Error] E2597 C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\22.0\CatalogRepository\AndroidNDK-21-22.0.48361.3236\android-ndk-r21\toolchains\arm-linux-androideabi-4.9\prebuilt\windows-x86_64\bin\arm-linux-androideabi-ld.exe: error: cannot find -lDllName {DllName is library name}

What is it and how fix it?

Not enough information really...

but I would guess it is a path issue. Where is your libDLLName.so? Does it exist? How are you deploying it?

 

Here is a post about deploying it.

Contrary to the Windows platform, the linker for Android/iOS/macOS needs the .so/.dylib, so it must be available when you compile (and link) your project. A quick and easy solution is to put the .so in the $(Platform)\$(Config) folder of your project.

 

There are numerous elaborate explanations out there on why this is the case with the external linkers used for other platforms, but unfortunately I can't locate one right now.

 

But you also need to deploy the .so - that's what Jims post is referring to.

But i don't know haw compilate so-library. When i just press big green button, it's just processing. and in the end RAD fireing out with error and showing me this page. 

And sub-folder bin in a folder Android>Release is empty.
