Failure to Build OpenCV 2.4 with Snapdragon compiler

Preface:

- I already succesfully built OpenCV 2.4.11 for armeabi-v7a using the standard GCC 4.9 NDK compiler

- I am using the android NDK version r10e

- Windows 7 64bit

- CMake version 3.3.1

- Snapdragon Compiler version 3.7.1

 

Problems:

- At first i tried as specified in the document "readme-install-llvm3-7a.pdf" to just copy the snapdragon compiler in the toolchains/ folder of the NDK; I then changed in OpenCV android.toolchain.cmake the variable ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN_NAME to arm-linux-androideabi-snapdragonclang3.7 which wasn't recognized (selecting the 3.6 Clang included in the NDK would have been accepted though)

- Since that didn't work, i proceded to build a standalone toolchain as instructed in "readme-install-llvm3-7a.pdf" sh make-standalone-toolchain.sh --ndk-dir=C:/Programs/android-ndk-r10e --verbose --arch=arm --platform=android-19 --toolchain=arm-linux-androideabi-4.9 --llvm-version=Snapdragon_LLVM_for_Android_3.7 --system=windows-x86_64 --install-dir=c:/toolchain-snapdragon-v19-3_7

The standalone toolchain was built, however upon running CMake and pointing to the standalone toolchain setting the appropriate variable ANDROID_STANDALONE_TOOLCHAIN, CMake recognized only the GCC 4.9 compiler in the standalone toolchain (the bin folder contains both GCC 4.9 as well as clangSnapdragon_LLVM_for_Android_37++) and it configured itself to build using GCC; trying to manually change the configuration to use the clangSnapdragon is also rejected by CMake

What can I do?
