LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_SRC_FILES := libEDSDK.a
/*LOCAL_EXPORT_C_INCLUDES := $(LOCAL_PATH)/EDSDK $(LOCAL_PATH)/EDSDKErrors $(LOCAL_PATH)/EDSDKTypes*/
LOCAL_ARM_MODE := arm

LOCAL_MODULE    := EDSK
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := sample.c
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := EDSDK.lib
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
LOCAL_ARM_MODE := arm
TARGET_PLATFORM:=android-8

Answers to NDK build questions which explicitly use $(LOCAL_PATH) are not correct (I don't know if they were always incorrect, but they definitely do not work for NDK version r8b). You should not prepend paths with $(LOCAL_PATH) - the build system automatically prefixes $(LOCAL_PATH) - hence these scripts prefix LOCAL_PATH twice and fail. This mistake is repeated all over Stack Overflow but I can't go through and correct every answer about the Android build system, so I have posted this in one of the most recent posts on the subject.

I would recommend people answering questions should be using the latest version of the NDK tools, or else qualify their answers with the version they are using.

Basically do it like this:

include $(LOCAL_PATH)/libos/Android.mk

This is just normal makefile syntax (See here:http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Include.html)
