Android ndk std::to_string support

You can try LOCAL_CFLAGS := -std=c++11, but note that not all C++11 APIs are available with the NDK's gnustl. Full C++14 support is available with libc++ (APP_STL := c++_shared).

The alternative is to implement it yourself.

#include <string>
#include <sstream>

template <typename T>
std::string to_string(T value)
{
    std::ostringstream os ;
    os << value ;
    return os.str() ;
}

int main()
{
    std::string perfect = to_string(5) ;
}

With NDK r9+ you can use llvm-libc++ which offers full support for cpp11.

In your Application.mk you have to add:

APP_STL:=c++_static 

or

APP_STL:=c++_shared

Gradle

If you looking for solution for Gradle build system. Look at this answer.

Short answer.

Add the string

arguments "-DANDROID_STL=c++_shared"

in your build.gradle. Like

android {
  ...
  defaultConfig {
    ...
    externalNativeBuild {
      cmake {
        ...
        arguments "-DANDROID_STL=c++_shared"
      }
    }
  }
  ...
}

Experimental Gradle Plugin

If you're looking for a solution for the Experimental Gradle plugin, this worked for me...

Tested with com.android.tools.build:gradle-experimental:0.9.1

model {
  ...
  android {
    ...
    ndk {
      ...
      stl = "c++_shared"
    }
  }
}
