[Android] Build from source in Android Studio OSX fails :ReactAndroid:buildReactNdkLib

[berickson1]

Using the latest React Native master (a7e5312), I'm unable to build from source inside of Android Studio.

Followed the documents for building Android React Native from source at the following URL:
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/android-building-from-source.html

Attempted with both Android NDK r11b and r10e with the same results.

This looks somewhat related to issue #6608 but using the same NDK version on Mac did not resolve the issue.

OS: OSX 10.11.4
Android Studio Version: 1.5.1
Branch: master

@berickson1 NDK r11e is not supported. Can you try again with r10e:

@berickson1 make sure you change the NDK path in the ANDROID_NDK variable as well as your local.properties file.

[berickson1]

@chirag04 I've verified with that I'm using Android NDK r10e. I've set the ANDROID_NDK environment variable properly (and set android.ndk in local.properties)

The build is failing with the aforementioned error.

[chirag04]

@berickson1 Make sure android studio is not overriding your local.properties(it re-generates local.properties automatically) and android studio can see you environment variables.

Goto Terminal tab inside android studio and see if you have ANDROID_NDK set. otherwise set the variable in Android Studio -> Preferences -> Path Variables.

Looks like my Android Studio was overriding my NDK version and using r11b. Thanks for the help!
