Hi,
I want to check file capabilities on a device. I can easily do that in Linux by using the capability API defined in the libcap2 package. I want to list down all the capabilities associated with a file and a process. The calls to cap_get_file() and cap_get_proc() gives us the required capability listing. How do we do the same calls on an Android device via an NDK App? We tried a sample app linking to sys/capability.h and did an ndk-build. It fails with the error: C:\d_drv\android-ndk-r9-windows-x86_64\android-ndk-r9\samples\xyz>ndk-build Gdbserver: [x86-4.6] libs/x86/gdbserver Gdbsetup: libs/x86/gdb.setup "Compile++ x86 : xyz <= cap-set.cpp jni/cap-set.cpp:7:28: fatal error: sys/capability.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make: *** [obj/local/x86/objs-debug/xyz/cap-set.o] Error 1 Thank you for the help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
