1)Download ndk from http://developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/index.html
2)Install from http://www.cygwin.com/
3)add location of cygwin1.dll to PATH environment variable.
4)change the valiable : ANDROID_NDK_ROOT
you can find it in your System properties->Advanced->Environment Variables.
For example, if Cygwin was installed into c:\cygwin and Android NDK to
c:\devl\androidndk, type in command line:
PATH=c:\cygwin\bin;%PATH%
set ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=c:\devl\androidndk
cd c:\devl\androidndk\build\prebuilt\windows\arm-eabi-4.2.1\bin
arm-eabi-gcc --version
..............
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

I'm not a facebook subscriber....
anyway, this morning I could not find references to this project on
the facebook page... and now your screenshot shows "fivetech"....

What should we see?
Viktor
What do you mean exactly?

Do you think we can see your privat chat?
Viktor
I think that he would really like that you started working on the
port.... well, me too.... it would fill that 128-134 gap ;-)
Francesco
PS: the promised android-based phone will not arrive soon.... I'm back
with a S60... what about a port to symbian ???? :-)
:)
Android is running a slightly modified Linux, and
compiler tools are familiar GCC, so the challenge
factor doesn't look very high here. It rather looks
like 'adding support' for the platform at this point,
rather then a new port.
Also, last time I checked there weren't any meaningful
components that would help develop anything interesting
on Android, f.e. the UI was only accessible from Java.
Then comes Massimo every second month and asks again
about an Android port without telling anything new
about the development of the platform/NDK.

I'm still using ages old Nokia S40 platform and
plan to switch to iPhone4. BTW, if someone sends me
an Android phone to play with, I promise to make a
port ;) [ yes, I know it runs in an emulator too. ]

Yes, for text-mode programs shouldn't be a big problem... android is
actually a fork of linux, and then google did crippled bits of it...
there was a "flame" on this matter last year... what about
multitasking, threads, keyboard ? Gestures ? (does android has
gestures???)

About one year ago I read about the possibility to develop in
languages other than Java, but I never had the time to read more...
It seems that Antonio had some success in running harbour on android,
in text-mode for the moment...
Unfortunately Qt is not supported on Android :-) but porting from
android/iPhone to Qt on symbian is encouraged on nokia site....

Yes, read about it.

It surely has these, but I believe that they are not
(or not all) available from C code. Java is the primary
app dev language, and while C is possible, you can access
only a small subset of functionality (at least last time
I checked quickly).
Anyhow I'd be great if someone did real reading about
it and come back to the list with useful information.
I don't have time for it and guessing is really useless.

Nice experiment, I hope we can see more about it.

Yes, we're back to square one with iOS/Android and the GUI.
