This is a sample Android executable that can be used to test the Google Breakpad client library on Android. Its purpose is simply to crash and generate a minidump under /data/local/tmp. Build instructions: cd android/sample_app $NDK/ndk-build Where $NDK points to a valid Android NDK installation. Usage instructions: After buildind the test program, send it to a device, then run it as the shell UID: adb push libs/armeabi/test_google_breakpad /data/local/tmp adb shell /data/local/tmp/test_google_breakpad This will simply crash after dumping the name of the generated minidump file. See jni/test_breakpad.cpp for details. Use 'armeabi-v7a' instead of 'armeabi' above to test the ARMv7-A version of the binary. Note: If you plan to use the library in a regular Android application, store the minidump files either to your app-specific directory, or to the SDCard (the latter requiring a specific permission).
