Hello, There was already a previous thread about Android apps with JNI, so I thought I should start one for discussing non-JNI apps, which means that I am really running executables as opposed to linking a .so to Java via JNI.
I succeeded in running a simple FPC Pascal application in Android and showing it's WriteLn output in a message dialog: http://p-tools.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/p-tools/PascalNotes4Android/?pathrev=190 Basically you need to rename your app so that it looks like a .so and then upon initialization the Java app needs to copy it to a folder where it can run the application. The folder is returned by getApplicationContext().getFilesDir which points to /data/data/packagename/ and then I use chmod to make the executable runnable. I don't know how it will fare for apps running for prolonged amounts of time at the moment, some Android developers said it is possible that it won't work. The Pascal app needs to be compiled separately and placed in the lib/eabi folder. Then after that issue "ant debug" to build the APK installer. bye, -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
