SMSQmulator for Android?
I was just thinking, as I sit in North Wales, in the rain, watching the sea...that as Android development mainly uses Java, and SMSQmulator is written in Java, could anyone possibly have tried to migrate SMSQmulator to Android?
I'm not a Java developer, although I dabble when I must, and I'm definitely not an Android developer, so I'm not sure it's even possible, just a thought.
I'd love a QL on my tablet!
Cheers,
Norm.

Hi,
QPC 1 can be run uder Dosbox.
There seems to be no Java runtime available for Android, only the rubbish in the Gopgle Play Store.
I did not know that SDL2 was available for Android. How does sQLux get compiled on Android?

Welcome to North Wales, Norman.

When I had a Windoze tablet, I would often run QPC2 on it. Like you, I'd love to have a QL emulator run on my Android tablet.

Re: SMSQmulator for Android?
Apparently, C/C++ uses the NDK and Cmake so, I assume, that there is/should be a way to compile the SDL.
Mind you, it's dangerous to assume!

Re: SMSQmulator for Android?
Hi,
I had alittle search on Android programming, it seems, Android Studio or Ecilse with ADT plugin will be able to provide Java IDE.
I have a T95Z plus Octa-core Androd box, never used maybe a good platform for a Android QL

Re: SMSQmulator for Android?
Not an expert here either, but Android doesn't provide the J2SE API (Swing, etc.) so while the emulation core should work easily enough the rest would have to be re-implemented using the Android API I guess.NormanDunbar wrote:I was just thinking, as I sit in North Wales, in the rain, watching the sea...that as Android development mainly uses Java, and SMSQmulator is written in Java, could anyone possibly have tried to migrate SMSQmulator to Android?

Thanks Marcel, looks like it's QPC we'll have to migrate then!
