Building
--------
+### Supported target platforms and prerequisites
+
+You need a C++11 compatible compiler to build libadblockplus.
+
+Win32:
+* Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, 2012
+
+Linux:
+* g++ 5.2
+
+Mac:
+* clang 3.6 for OS X
+
+Android:
+* the host system should be linux or OS X
Wladimir Palant 2016/06/20 15:17:51 Nit: it should be "The" and "Linux" (capitalized).

+* android-ndk-r9, android-ndk-r10c. You can download the latter for [OS X](http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r10c-darwin-x86_64.bin), [Linux 32](http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r10c-linux-x86.bin), [Linux 64](http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r10c-linux-x86_64.bin)
Wladimir Palant 2016/06/20 15:17:51 Nit: period at the end of this sentence please.
anton 2016/06/20 15:31:23 Acknowledged.
+* g++ multilib

+If you have a compilation issue with another compiler please [create an issue](https://issues.adblockplus.org/).

All you need is Python 2.7 and Make:
make
The default target architecture is x64. On a 32 bit system, run:

`build\ia32\libadblockplus.sln` (solution for the 32 bit build) and
`build\x64\libadblockplus.sln` (solution for the 64 bit build). Unfortunately,
V8 doesn't support creating both from the same project files.
* Open `build\ia32\libadblockplus.sln` or `build\x64\libadblockplus.sln` in
Visual Studio and build the solution there. Alternatively you can use the
`msbuild` command line tool, e.g. run `msbuild /m build\ia32\libadblockplus.sln`
from the Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt to create a 32 bit debug build.
-### Supported compilers
+### Building for Android
-You need a C++11 compatible compiler to build libadblockplus.
+First set ANDROID_NDK_ROOT environment variable to your Android NDK directory.
-The compilation was tested with the following compilers:
-* g++ 4.8
-* Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, 2012
-* clang 3.4 for Android (from android-ndk-r9)
-* clang 3.6 for OS X
+To build for *x86* arch run:

+ make android_x86

+To build for *arm* arch run:

+ make android_arm
Usage
-----
You can use libadblockplus to build an ad blocker. Or, strictly speaking, a web
content filter. Just like Adblock Plus, it can detect resources that should be
blocked based on their URL and context information, and generate CSS selectors
to hide DOM elements.
