Cannot link libzmq.a on Android Studio (unsupported dynamic reloc R_ARM_REL32)

[vb-mich]

Issue description

I successfully built on Linux libzmq for Android following the instructions here, now I'm trying to compile on Windows with Android Studio a shared library linking to it the static build of libzmq. The linker gives me this errors: libzmq/armeabi-v7a/libzmq.a(src_libzmq_la-address.o): requires unsupported dynamic reloc R_ARM_REL32; recompile with -fPIC libzmq/armeabi-v7a/libzmq.a(src_libzmq_la-ctx.o): requires unsupported dynamic reloc R_ARM_REL32; recompile with -fPIC

I confirm the static library has been built with fPIC as well as my library I also tried the solution here https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/issues/2300 with no luck.

Digging on google I found this https://github.com/gavinpugh/vs-android/issues/124 Maybe a bug of Android Studio?

Environment

libzmq built on Ubuntu Linux Android Studio 3.6.3 running on Windows 10 NDK r21 (on both win and linux)

• libzmq version (commit hash if unreleased): latest

I have experienced this issue as well on Ubuntu 16.04 gcc-8 c++17 libzmq-4.3.2

Are you using Android Studio as well?

[austinbenincasa]

No, forgot to follow up I had to build libzmq using the following, ./autogen.sh --with-pic then ./configure
