Hi, im new here. I am familiar with java programming. However, i am not sure if i can create application using Java SE instead of using the Android SDK and installed it on Android Phone?
I have found out a website on this stating : "But Android’s programs are written in Java, using Java-oriented IDEs (it also comes with an Eclipse plugin)… it just doesn’t compile the java code into java bytecode but (ops, Sun didn’t see this one coming) into Dalvik bytecode. So, Android uses the syntax of the Java platform (the Java “language”, if you wish, which is enough to make java programmers feel at home and IDEs to support the editing smoothly) and the java SE class library but not the Java bytecode or the Java virtual machine to execute it on the phone (and, note, Android’s implementation of the Java SE class library is, indeed, Apache Harmony’s!)" Does that mean I can use only Java syntax to do my programming in ANDROID SDK but i cannot directly execute a java application using Android? Android has this R.Java file, follows a Layout Structure using XML. These are different from Java SE. If Android can really support a new compiled Java Application, How should i installed it on Android Phone?
