When Android NDK gdb reports missing .oat files, it usually indicates an issue with the build process or the environment setup. Here are some steps you can take to address this issue:

Check Build Configuration: Ensure that your build configuration is correct and that it includes the necessary flags to generate .oat files. Verify that the APP_OPTIM variable is set to debug or release as needed.

Update NDK and SDK: Make sure you are using the latest versions of the Android NDK and SDK. Sometimes, updating to the latest versions can resolve compatibility issues.

Rebuild the Project: Clean and rebuild your project to ensure that all necessary files are generated correctly. Use the ndk-build script with appropriate options to rebuild the native libraries.

Verify Debug Symbols: Ensure that debug symbols are correctly generated and included in the build. This can help gdb locate the necessary files.

Check Environment Variables: Verify that your environment variables are correctly set up and that the paths to the NDK and SDK are correctly configured.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue with missing .oat files when using Android NDK gdb. If the problem persists, consider consulting the official Android NDK documentation or seeking help from the developer community.
