Betreff: Re: PLC4X on Android?
Hi all,

Turns out Netty seems to work just fine on Android, but we forgot to
give the app network permission. I just pushed the latest changes to
my example project and you can use for demos etc as you like.

https://github.com/NiklasMerz/plc4x-android-demo

The Android app project itself is not that special. I just added some
dependencies and config code to get log4j properly working and did the
permission requests.

Regards Niklas
