As Kai says, has anyone worked on getting D running on
Android before? I've been thinking about attempting an
Android port for years. I thought I'd spin up some x86 VMs
this weekend and take a crack at getting D working on
Android/x86 (http://www.android-x86.org/) as a first step.
If anyone has started on this already, I could chip in on
their branch.
Yes, have a look at an initial port of GDC to Android
https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/wiki/GDC%20on%20Android
Thanks for the link. It looks like Johannes Pfau took a stab
at getting some minimal Android support into gdc a couple years
back, with the handful of small patches listed here:
https://bitbucket.org/jpf/gdc/branch/android
Anyone get any farther than that?
Would it make sense to use dmd for linux/x86 to cross-compile
to Android/x86 or is this a job for ldc/gdc only?
I would say ldc/gdc only, as LLVM/gcc are the supported NDK
toolchains and dmd lacks an ARM backend.
