## How to import the project:
## Building the JNI-related files for Phoenix.
1. - Open Eclipse, do: File->Import->Existing Projects Into Workspace.
1. If you haven't already, install the Android NDK (http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html)
2. - Choose "Select root directory", and also check "Search for nested projects"
2. In the Phoenix root directory you should notice the folder named "jni".
3. - Browse to the location of the folder named "phoenix" in the RetroArch repository and select it as the root dir. (as of writing, it is /android/phoenix).
3. Open Command Prompt/Terminal and cd into this directory.
4. - You should see two projects have been found, "RetroArch" and "android-support-v7-appcompat". Import both of these.
4. Run ndk-build within this directory (just type "ndk-build" and hit Enter) and wait for everything to finish building.
5. - Let Eclipse finish building the workspace, or whatever.
5. All built libraries should now reside within the "libs" directory.
6. - You should now be able to build it normally like any application.
6. Continue to the next section of this document.
