Hi,

In the rowboat source code camera source code is there.After compiling
source code, when we create filesystem, Camera apk is also there. But
when android application screen is coming, Camera app is not shown
there.

How to run/use camera apk in rowboat ??
Is there any way we can run any app from command-line ??

How can we add any app to android app screen ??/

any suggestions ....

Mohan

What is "rowboat"?

You can run Android applications from the command line with the "am" command.  Run that command by itself with no arguments for help.

thx for reply...

Rowboat is an another android distribution like embinux, oxdroid.

Can you give an example to use "am" command to run any application.
like "am camera.apk or something else"

Okay...  I guess the question here doesn't have anything specifically to do with this being on rowboat, then?

Anyway, the "am" command has help text for how to use it when you run it.  The "start" version of it is for starting activities, basically the same as Activity.startActivity(); you'll want to read the docs on that, and build the same Intent using the syntax for am.
