CARTO Mobile SDK is a multi-platform mobile mapping SDK written mostly in C++11 with bindings to numerous languages (Java/C# for Android, ObjectiveC/C# for iOS and C# for Windows Phone).
This project contains the core part of the SDK, for samples, look at the 'Usage' section.
| Platforms | Status |
|---|---|
| Android, iOS |  |
We strongly suggest to use the precompiled SDK versions that can be found in the samples below (in 'Usage' section). The precompiled libraries include support for CARTO online services (basemaps, offline map packages, routing, etc). Also, getting all the SDK dependencies resolved and waiting for the build to complete can be very time-consuming.
Get the prepackaged dependencies from github mobile-external-libs repository (https://github.com/CartoDB/mobile-external-libs). Add links to external-libs/prebuilt at the project root directory level.
In addition, boost library sources should be downloaded from boost.org and configured as described in mobile-external-libs documentation.
Special swig version (swig-2.0.11-nutiteq branch) is needed for generating language-specific wrappers, this can be downloaded from https://github.com/CartoDB/swig. Clone it and compile it using usual ./configure;make routine. Make sure build script refers to this one.
Python 2.7.x is used for build scripts
Android build requires Android SDK and Android NDK r11 or later.
iOS build requires XCode 7.3 or later.
Windows Phone build requires Visual Studio 2017.
Be patient - full build will take 1+ hours. You can speed it up by limiting architectures and platforms where it is built.
git clone https://github.com/CartoDB/mobile-external-libs.git
cd mobile-external-libs/libs-external
ln -s ../../sdk_3d/all/libs/boost # change to folder where you have boost libs!
git clone https://github.com/CartoDB/mobile-sdk.git
cd mobile-sdk
ln -s ../mobile-external-libs/libs-external/

Use precompiled GDAL library containing headers and .so files. Make symbolic links from GDAL_precompiled/android to prebuilt/gdal and GDAL_precompiled/android to libs-external/gdal.
python swigpp-java.py --profile gisextensions
python build-android.py --profile gisextensions --android-abi=armeabi-v7a --android-abi=arm64-v8a --android-abi=x86
Note: you need to copy libgdal.so files from the GDAL_precompiled folder
