LoadLibrary fails when including tango .SO

[chipweinberger]

When adding the shared tango libs into an existing Android Studio project, load Library fails with this exception

JNI DETECTED ERROR IN APPLICATION: JNI NewGlobalRef called with pending exception java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: no "I" field "mNativePtr" in class "Landroid/os/Parcel;" or its superclasses'

There is another person on stackoverflow with the same tango issue, but no posted answer.

I'm also using the Lenovo Phab II tablet, and am having the same issue as this guy

May have solved it. Needed to load the tango_client_api.so first:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    // Used to load the 'native-lib' library on application startup.
    static {
        // This project depends on tango_client_api, so we need to make sure we load
        // the correct library first.
        if (com.projecttango.examples.cpp.util.TangoInitializationHelper.loadTangoSharedLibrary() ==
                com.projecttango.examples.cpp.util.TangoInitializationHelper.ARCH_ERROR) {
            Log.e("TangoJNINative", "ERROR! Unable to load libtango_client_api.so!");
        }
        System.loadLibrary("native-lib");
    }
