Yes, rename the extracted folder android-ndk-r13b
(probably the exact name will be outdated someday soon) to ndk-bundle
(you can put the NDK
[and SDK
for that matter] anywhere, and leave the name alone if you want {do not do this, I’m sure seen one case of hard-coded sub-path}),
then, make the settings point to the location where you put it.

(short-cut: ctrl+Alt+Shift+s):
It might also be helpful to you to set/check the following environmental variables
:
NDK_HOME=C:\Android\sdk\ndk-bundle
NDK_MODULE_PATH=C:\Android\sdk\ndk-bundle
EXTRA stuff:
While were doing environmental variables
(belt-and-braces for SDK
):
ANDROID_HOME=C:\Android\sdk
For JDK:
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_112
JAVA_PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_112\bin
JDK is the Java Development Kit.
JRE is the Java Run-time Environment.
If your tight on memory (RAM
) for Gradle
(700 Megabytes is about as low as you can go, other tools like monitor.bat
use this variable too, it’s ubiquitous) (clearly you want to make it as big a possible, without swapping making it extremely slow to build {note the underscore VERY important ! [it’s a reserved name space conflict operator, don’t ask me to explain it’s VERY complicated !]}):
_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx700m
