[android-developers] Re: Like Quartz
You could always try to adapt Quartz to Android. From my experience with other open source software (like Neuroph or Sudoku Explainer) they normally need some tweaks to make them work on Android (mainly due to memory/stack and/or performance issues) but in the end it will work. On the other hand I'm not sure if using Quartz on a mobile device isn't taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I used Quartz in a J2EE environment and it was a great product but maybe there are easier ways to do what you need to do (you might want to elaborate on what your intentions are to get more advice).

Unlikely for Quartz, unless you re-design it considerably. Quartz needs to run all the time, with threads periodically waking up to check triggers and jobs. Plus it's purpose is to handle lots of jobs, possibly running for a long time and interconnected. 'Enterprise' level stuff, that you are quite unlikely to do/need on Android. Very much *unlike* porting 'Sudoku Explainer'. On the other hand I'm not sure if using Quartz on a mobile device isn't taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
