Right, but by that argument you could also have a shared object for the ndk
that you'd migrate to the android platform.  But since this question is on
this list, I'd assume he wants the same sort of semantic function as a dll.
 In this case, I'd imagine lots of programs accessing some shared
functionality that does something on your behalf.  (And it's different
because of sandboxing, but you get the idea.)   The android equivalent of
this is a service which sits in the background and allows apps to bind to
it, send intents to it, etc...
