sdl2 windows and android

[djoker]

Kotai the sdl2 4 android use java the graphics ,audio and input is build on java and not native look the source codes you need jni to start the sdl and java to pass the android pointers macos linux and windows use opengl and windows api
your code is fine 4 all you systems but 4 android you need eclipse to create the android apk or the command (android)

look this code

Hi again.

I found next site on Paul Foster shared his experiences working with External Java libraries on Android with XE5 :

http://www.pclviewer.com/android/

and PDF: http://www.pclviewer.com/android/XE5.pdf

Do you think with this information would be used SDL2 on Android with Delphi XE5?

Thanks.

Hi @joker


I found how use java in Android from DelphiXE5


I see your demo of SDL2 on Android for FPC in first message of this post, but I do not undertstand it.
Please, can you send me a simple example in FPC for make this:

program SDL2Test;
uses
  System.SysUtils;


  function SDL_Init(flags: UInt32): LongInt cdecl; external 'libSDL2.so' name 'SDL_Init';


begin
     try
        if SDL_Init(0) < 0 then
           Writeln('Can not Init SDL')
        else
           Writeln('SDL Init OK');
     except
        on E: Exception do
           Writeln(E.ClassName, ': ', E.Message);
     end;
     repeat
     until False;
end.

Please if you need other files (libraries .so or java) add it.
I would port my games make with DelphiXE5+SDL2 to Android.

Thanks.

hi KOTAI , plz don't waste time using sdl2 with delphix5, delphixe5 build android full projects this way its not possible use sdl2 or sdl1 , sdl its not full NATIVE (so) sdl use java
and 2 use sdl you need android full project with(AndroidManifest.xml,project.properties, and the most important SDLActivity.java) SDLActivity.java is all the magic.
KOTAI try the fcpcross with delphi7 .
