Re: [xmlvm-users] Problem with demo Android projects

[Sascha H. <sa...@xm...>]

Well, one of the things we will need to do for the cross-compilation of
Android projects is to add the Android SDK. We can do this two ways: Either
we put it  into a JAR, just like the OpenJDK JAR or we assume the developer
has Android installed and use an environment flag to point to the classes.

The advantage of the latter is that we don't blow up the size of our
repository and one-jar further and I guess we can assume that every dev has
Android installed.
