I've put up the latest native and cross-compiler ldc 1.1.0 beta
builds for Android, fresh from the master branch and using the
2.071 frontend:
https://github.com/joakim-noah/android/releases
I believe I've fixed the issue that was causing random crashes in
the sample apps, a regression from porting the NDK's C wrapper to
D, found by Vadim Lopatim. I've added three sample apps that
demonstrate calling D code from JNI.
The sample C++ Teapot app from the NDK has been ported to D and
mostly works, including calling Java methods from D through JNI,
but I need to track down some other touch-related bugs from the
port before committing it. I'm finishing up reggae files to make
building the sample apps very easy. I'd like to write up the
process to build and use ldc natively on your Android mobile
device, from the Termux app, on the wiki.
Once those three are done, I'll create a new thread to properly
announce this beta; in the meantime, nothing will change with
these new beta builds, so try them out.
