How to build NDK toolchain in Win 10

Issue

I dowloaded NDK through Android studio, added ANDROID_HOME and NDK_HOME variables, and run the below command, but nothing happened:

${NDK_HOME}/make_standalone_toolchain.py --api 28 --arch x86_64 --install-dir NDK/x86_64

Solution

I noticed that in NDK19+ the linker are coming prebuilt, and can be accessed as:

[target.x86_64-linux-android]
ar = "C:\Users\${user}\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\ndk\${NKD_version}\toolchains\llvm\prebuilt\windows-x86_64\bin\x86_64-linux-android-ar"
linker = "C:\Users\${user}\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\ndk\${NKD_version}\toolchains\llvm\prebuilt\windows-x86_64\bin\x86_64-linux-android23-clang"

where the linker should include the minSdkVersion for example x86_64-linux-android23-clang means minSdkVersion is API 23
