android/ndk#379 (comment)

libc++ is in much better shape than it was back then, but it's still not quite to the point that I'm comfortable recommending it. For a timeline on that, see our roadmap.

NDK r17 is officially out with libc++ as default now.

Thanks. I see @ruslo has already added android-ndk-r17-api-24-arm64-v8a-clang-libcxx14 in @polly. We can update the r16b toolchain toolchain to r17.

Caveat: I tested a beta version or r17 and it didn't support MinSizeRel + LTO yet, although a gcc + libc++ combination could be used as a workaround.

You'll need to use CMake 3.12 (unreleased) as well.

@xsacha CMake 3.11.1 works fine with Android NDK r17:

Oh right. Some of my packages complain about FindThreads in NDK r17. Thought it would affect this project too.

Also, Boost will fail to compile with NDK r17 if you target API 21,22,23. Only works on older APIs or 24 and above due to removal of libandroid_support.
