How to compile project proj.android created by new cocos2d-x v 4.0 in new Android Studio 4.1.1?

[Vasiliy229]

The cocos2d-x v4.0 installer generated a proj.android folder for me, apparently this is an Android studio project. I open it in Android Studio 4.1.1 - it says "ndk not found". I write the path to ndk:
"sdk.dir = C: \ Users \ user55 \ AppData \ Local \ Android \ Sdk
ndk.dir = C: \ Users \ user55 \ AppData \ Local \ Android \ Sdk \ ndk \ 22.0.7026061"
Next error:
"A problem occurred configuring project ':'. Java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)"
To compile on the JDK command line in the jni folder, the files are not the same as in the cocos2d-x 4.0 compilation manual
Android Studio 4.1.1

I'm having the same error as well. Guess I'll have to move to some other platform then.

@Vasiliy229 downgrade your NDK to 21 or less. you may have to specify the exact directory inside local.properties

i was able to build the project by upgrading the gradle version to the latest one: ! :
in gradle-wrapper.properties:
...
distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.5-bin.zip
...

in build.gradle:
...
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.1'
