#ANDROID-IMAGEMAGICK

###Introduction This Is a free to use,change and reproduce multi CPU-architecture port of ImageMagick on Android Platform, this repo provides you with the ".so" files necessary to perform android native processing using the Image Magick library version 6.7.3-0 on Android devices with Armeabi, Armeabi-v7a, Intel x86 or Mips processor CPUs/ABIs.

It also provides the C/C++ code in the ImageMagick Library, its dependant libraries as well as the Android.mk files necessary for rebuilding using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK) within the android application,

ImageMagick methods are accessed by use of Jmagick included in the src folder, JMagick is an open source Java interface of ImageMagick. It is implemented in the form of a thin Java Native Interface (JNI) layer into the ImageMagick API. please take a look here http://sourceforge.net/projects/jmagick/ To see all features and learn how to use them please check out http://www.jmagick.org/jmagick-doc/

###USAGE: For quick ImageMagick Usage in your android app, .....the following instructions are based on none-gradle build

1. Simply copy the "libs" folder to your project folder
2. Delete the CPU architecture folders of those CPU's architecure's you aren't targetting in the "libs" folder you've just copied.
3. Go to "src" and copy "Magick" and "fakeawt", copy these to your "src" folder of your project
4. Create a"jni" folder
5. In the "jni" folder create an "Application.mk" file where you put "APP_ABI := <your_target_CPU_architecture>"" , this allows Google Play to know what CPU that particular APK targets
6. Your basically done at this point, you can look at "teste.ndk.testendkactivity" and "AndroidMagickActivity.java" for basic Imagemagick usage you can copy to your own Activity.

###REBUILD: If you want to rebuild with your own toolchain/compilers and what not or even maybe add other libraries e.g "Ghostscript" to support for PDF.

1. Naviagate to "jni" and edit the "android.mk" file accordingly
2. Also edit the "application.mk" file accordingly
3. using your "Cygwin" or whatever you none Windows guys use, navigate to the project's "jni" folder and run "ndk-build"
4. These .so files were generated using NDK r9d.

NB: If your adding support libraries such as "djvu" or "ralcgm" etc for djvu and meta file format support, build them as static libraries in the android.mk file but make sure to include their modules in the magick and libimagemagick "LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES", dont forget to add thier include paths as well. Then proceed to the format's corresponding c file in ImageMagick/Coders folder e.g "jp2.c" if it's there anyway, look for if statements of the form "if defined(MAGICKCORE__DELEGATE)", remove them and their corresponding "endif"s. Do the same for also the ImageMagick/magick/static.c file. I successfully added support for JPEG2000 and webp formats, if you manage to add others or even update the libraries, please commit/fork or whatever the word you guys call it, sorry im new to github :-) ,It took me 3 hours just uploading this my first repo .

###NEED HELP TO: If you'd like to contibute i'd look forward to the following improvements:

1. Compiling and adding Ghostscript to support PDF,
2. Compiling and adding JPEG turbo
3. Making the final ".so" file smaller using any optimizations you experts know of.

Well, there you have it. If it works for you don't forget to star.
