I have the following Application.mk
APP_PLATFORM := android-9
APP_STL := gnustl_static
APP_CPPFLAGS := -frtti -fexceptions -O2 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp
Regarding "package", this is most likely some crlf problem with your XML file. Check the line end characters there. Or, maybe something is wrong in your project.properties
file.
The APP_PLATFORM warning is actually correct: your APP_PLATFORM (android-14) is larger than android:minSdkVersion you set in AndroidManifest.xml. This is only a warning to remind you about this (legitimate) situation, so that at certain stage you decide to drop support for very dated devices.
