Me too. Maybe it’s cos we’re using Android Studio 4 and this tutorial hasn’t been updated from Android 3? Did you figure out what to do?

I fixed it by updating this line in my project’s build.gradle to:

  classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.2'

Thanks for this one. I couldn’t get the Lazy Foo’s one to work or it was missing things. There was another tutorial i had found to do it in visual studio, also had issues with that. Third times a charm they say and this one worked perfectly without any dramas. Although I did get stuck with trying to load assets as it wasn’t really explained and your example doesn’t show how. HINT for others reading, you cannot read files from the assets with just fopen() alone. What I do is inside my java code (the class that extends “SDLActivity”) override the “onCreate” function and add code here to copy the asset files to your apps “Data directory” (the java function to get your “Data dir” is “getExternalFilesDir(null)”) then on your c++ side do this at startup:

chdir(SDL_AndroidGetExternalStoragePath());

Now your “working” directory will be set to the same folder that you copied all the assets to. If you google around you can find some code to only do this asset copying once (first time you run the app)
