Cannot build ROS2 humble (rclcpp) with Android NDK

edit

I'm trying to build ros2 humble release using the Android NDK compiler (v 25) and am receiving issues in trying to build ament_cmake and rclcpp

After following the instructions here for building on Windows 10 (x86): https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/Instal...

At the "Build ROS2 step" I'm trying to run colcon build and specifying the Android NDK as cmake arguments:

colcon build --cmake-args -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=D:\Android\Sdk\ndk\25.1.8937393\build\cmake\android.toolchain.cmake -DCMAKE_ANDROID_NDK=D:\Android\Sdk\ndk\25.1.8937393 -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Android -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=31 -DCMAKE_ANDROID_API=31 -DCMAKE_ANDROID_ARCH_ABI=x86_64 -DCMAKE_STL=c++_shared -DANDROID_TOOLCHAIN=clang --merge-install --packages-up-to rclcpp

I receive the following error:
