I'm trying to develop/port a game to Android, but it's in C, and Android supports Java, but I'm sure there must be a way to get a C app on there, anyone knows of a good tutorial on the subject?

Is there anyway to write android applications in PHP? This page clearly mentions that Android apps should be written in Java. Just wondering if there is another way. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've already written a game engine in java using eclipse and opengl es, I had one project (an android project) which contained both of my packages com.logic.engine com.logic.testapp I wanted a way to keep my engine and test app seperate, I've made an earlier post about how this is done, and I figured out how to reference one project in the build path of another (or just creating a jar file). My problem is that, lets say I now have my engine all wrapped up in an android project com.logic.engine, and now someone would like to use this engine to create a game, so they create an android project com.someclient.game, well now because we have one android project referencing another, it crashes everytime. Now obviously i need the android sdk in my engine package in order to reference things, but its also required on the client app, since the activity is what is actually being run by android. I guess my question is, how can i create a project for my game engine without it being an android project, but still referencing the android sdk, and without causing it to crash the client app using it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy program contains a file with the name "size.text", which contains just a word "15". If a user choose a value from a spinner,say 17, then the chosen value should be stored in the file and replace "15". I have added the permission to the program <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"></uses-permission> But somehow i can not make the chosen value be written to the file. Here is my code...

I wish to avoid it happens before writing.
How should I do?
I'm considering writing an internet filter app for Android which would allow parents to block objectionable web sites on their children's phones. I'm assuming this would also be useful on GoogleTV when it comes out. How would I even start? Is it possible to block access to specific sites without requiring the user to root their phone?
I'm guessing I could do it with iptables, but that would probably require a rooted phone.
Edit:
If the phone was rooted, how would one go about doing this? Are ip tables the way to go or is there a better way?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do I create a shared directory with read/write permissions to all applications installed on my phone and that is not on the sdcard?
I tried that :

Is it possible (without violating any licenses) to write a native C/C++ application on top of the Android OS and make it run as a daemon process?
There are already several daemon process' running which one can see with the 'ps' command, the legal part concerns me the most. And also the lack of documentation on how to exactly do this.
For the writing part, I guess one could use basic Linux programming concepts, since Android supports at least to some level the standard Posix API. To make it run as the phone boots, some modifications is of course required in init as well.
I have no plans to have this app in the Android Market, so installing it manually to the phone is not a problem. As long as it does not require re-compiling the whole OS or kernel.
So I use my Eris as a GPS from time to time and when I do, I do not want the screen to shut off automatically. I know how to change this in settings but what I want is a widget that I can keep on my home screen that will disable the screen time out, and then turn it back on again (the way the wifi short cut allows me to turn my wifi receiver on and off without going through settings.
I do not think such a short cut already exists, I would happily write it myself, but not sure how to go about starting.
