How to program in Android in C++ using Code locks from Windows

[enriquemesa8080]

Hello. Some time ago I have programmed a símple app as a Linux app using busybox tools and a Compiler from botbrew. It works fine. But it uses the resources of my smartphone and it is not viable. I want to use Code blocks from windows as a cross Compiler with support for Arm. How I can achieve this, using that ide. Do you know a free gnu Compiler that works for Linux and also ARM. I know that Android is not a Linux but my initial test shows me that it is possible. Thanks for your help

Visual Studio can build native Android apps.

VS is not GNU, but the Community edition is not fee-based until you generate large amount of income.

Thanks. I will try it. I need to learn that there are some Microsoft free products. That is good. Thanks.
