This folder contains the java parts needed to build an Rockbox as an
application for android.
* Prerequisites
Download and install the Android SDK[1] and NDK[2].
After you extracted the SDK, you need to run <sdk-dir>/tools/android in order to
install the actual platform sdk from the available packages tab (SDK Platform
Android 1.5 or above should work).
In the virtual devices tab you can also setup a emulator.
Then, make sure you have the ANDROID_SDK_PATH and ANDROID_NDK_PATH (pointing to
the each's root directory) environment variables set up, otherwise configure will fail to find the compiler and
compiling the java files will fail.
* Build instructions
Use this as your build folder, using '../tools/configure' etc.
$ ../tools/configure # type 200, then chose A for android and your screen resolution
$ make
After the build finished, build the apk file:
$ make apk
You can install that on your device or emulator with the following command:
$ $ANDROID_SDK_PATH/tools/adb install -r bin/Rockbox.apk
