# Native Development
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite
|
|
|
|
Install the NDK required to build and develop Magisk with `./build.py ndk`. The NDK will be installed to `$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/ndk/magisk`. You don't need to manually install a Rust toolchain with `rustup`, as the NDK installed already has a Rust toolchain bundled.
|
|
|
|
## Build Configs
|
|
|
|
All C/C++ code and its dependencies are built with [`ndk-build`](https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/ndk-build) and configured with several `*.mk` files scattered in many places.
|
|
|
|
The `src` folder is also a proper Cargo workspace, and all Rust code is built with `cargo` just like normal Rust projects.
|
|
|
|
## Rust + C/C++
|
|
|
|
To reduce complexity involved in linking, all Rust code is built as `staticlib` and linked to C++ targets to ensure our final product is built with an officially supported NDK build system. Each C++ target can at most link to **one** Rust `staticlib` or else multiple definitions error will occur.
|
|
|
|
We use the [`cxx`](https://cxx.rs) project for Rust and C++ interop.
|
|
|
|
## Development / IDE
|
|
|
|
All C++ code should be recognized and properly indexed by Android Studio out of the box. For Rust:
|
|
|
|
- Install the [Rust plugin](https://www.jetbrains.com/rust/) in Android Studio
|
|
- In Preferences > Languages & Frameworks > Rust, set `$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/ndk/magisk/toolchains/rust/bin` as the toolchain location
|
|
- Open `native/src/Cargo.toml`, and select "Attach" in the "No Cargo projects found" banner
|
|
|
|
Note: run `./build.py binary` before developing to make sure generated code is created.
