Android NDK. Loading ETC1 compressed texture from .PVR file

Issue

Since PVR file format and PVRTexTool utility supports ETC compression -- I want to use it for my textures in the Android project.

Unfortunately I found no libs or samples how to load ETC1 OpenGL texture from PVR file.

One source I have is Objective-C PVR loader for iOS. But I need some example on C++ for Android NDK.

Solution

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be much info on this out there, however there are a couple of things. http://www.brokenteapotstudios.com/android-game-development-blog/2011/05/loading-opengl-textures-in-c-and-etc1-texture-compression.html provides most of the info needed. If you want to use the header version, the header format is described here http://www.mhgames.org/2012/03/android-development-loading-etc1-textures-from-ndk/

Hopefully that's helpful :)
