It is too late but someone may find it useful.
First place the libopencv_java.so for opencv 2 or libopencv_java3.so for oepncv3 in the app/src/main/jniLibs folder under different architecture add if you have also linonfree.so to the jniLibs folder. Link the cmake into gradle.
Here is the CmakeLists.
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.4.1)
set(EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/main/jniLibs/${ANDROID_ABI}")
add_library( # Sets the name of the library.
native-lib
# Sets the library as a shared library.
SHARED
# Provides a relative path to your source file(s).
src/main/cpp/native-lib.cpp )
#the nonfree optional if you have build the nonfree.so of the xfeature2d module
add_library( # Sets the name of the library
nonfree
# Sets the library as shared library.
SHARED
# indicate the library is prebuilt.
IMPORTED )
set_target_properties( # Specifies the targeted library.
nonfree
# Specifies the parameter you want to define.
PROPERTIES IMPORTED_LOCATION
# Specifies the location of the library.
${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/src/main/jniLibs/${ANDROID_ABI}/libnonfree.so )
include_directories(C:/Users/what/Documents/OpenCV-android-sdk/sdk/native/jni/include)
add_library( lib-opencv SHARED IMPORTED )
set_target_properties(lib-opencv PROPERTIES IMPORTED_LOCATION ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/src/main/jniLibs/${ANDROID_ABI}/libopencv_java3.so)
find_library( # Sets the name of the path variable.
log-lib
# Specifies the name of the NDK library that
# you want CMake to locate.
log )
target_link_libraries( # Specifies the target library.
native-lib
# prebuilt library nonfree.
nonfree
# prebuilt library opencv java.
lib-opencv
# Links the target library to the log library
# included in the NDK.
${log-lib} )
Set the jniLis.srcDirs folder path in build.gradle(app).
sourceSets {
main {
// let gradle pack the shared library into apk
jniLibs.srcDirs = ['src/main/jniLibs']
}
}
