Cocos2d-x compilation error - sdk

Question

I just downloaded the Cocos2d-x SDK and tried to compile the hello world example with the following result:
<code>The Selected NDK toolchain version was 4.8 !

Answer 1

Which cocos2d-x version are you using? Seems like you didn't define your env variables correctly. Please have a look at this tutorial and make sure you define the following variables:
COCOS2DX_ROOT : should point to the root directory of cocos2d-x
ANDROID_SDK_ROOT : Should point to the root directory of the Android SDK
NDK_ROOT : Should point the to root directory of the Android NDK
NDK_TOOLCHAIN_VERSION : Which Android NDK toolchain should be used

Answer 2

See the problem is that the system is not able to compile the cocos.py.
So, if you open cocos.py from the bin directory where you have unzipped the file
it runs smoothly.
The thing is Python3.x is not able to compile the Phython2.x code.
So we must change the path in environment variable so the system doesn't a python2 file with the help of python3 compiler.
Thanks
Summary
1.Go to Control Panel, then type path or environment in search bar
2.open Evnvironment variables
3.Just delete any C:\Python34 or anything starts with python3.x and add C:\Python27 path where you have installed.
