Expected behavior

The app should not crash on start.

Notes / preliminary analysis

We are using the NativeScript framework to develop our apps, so it is hard to create a sample project that you would be able to run (without installing all the NativeScript stuff). And of course, I know that you guys are not officially supporting that framework.

But as I already mentioned here my issue occurred for the first time when using com.mapbox.maps:android:11.0.0-beta.2
However, it was working as expected using 11.0.0-beta.1 (and also v10 and v9 before).

@felixkrautschuk many thanks for the detailed ticket. The root cause is clear and it is that Mapbox Maps v10 are built with NDK 21 while Mapbox Maps v11 are built with NDK 23. There are no easy workarounds sadly apart from aligning all your 3d party dependencies with C++ code to have the c++_shared.so built with the same NDK toolchain.

We are not planning for now supporting Maps v11 built with NDK 21.

However quick googling showed that NativeScript just bumped to NDK 23 as well, see NativeScript/android#1803 and it's available in this alpha release, so using this release of NativeScript with Maps v11 should fix the crashes.

@kiryldz thanks for your quick response and the detailed information.
You are right, using the alpha version of @nativescript/android package does the trick!
