Re: [xmlvm-users] New user missing Android resources

[William W. <flu...@gm...>]

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be working either.  Creating a project
using the xmlvm android skeleton works but has the same problem - neither
the AndroidManifest.xml file nor any other resource exist anywhere in the
--out directory and are not referenced in the xcodeproj file or Makefile.

As for the relative vs absolute path issue, I really don't think that is the
issue, else I would expect an error in the build phase in Xcode.  I looked
in the generated xcodeproj and found no references to any kind of xml file,
whether relative or absolute paths.  In any case doing my Android
development on the Mac is a non starter even if I did think it would work.

Is there any way I can just add these resource files manually to the iPhone
project?  The cross compilation part, which is what I am actually interested
in, is working fine.  I just don't know where to put them.

As an alternative, would it be possible for me to just cross-compile the
logic of my application and copy it into an ordinary iphone app, which I
could then invoke from my own Objective-C code?  This way I would build the
UI again, but not the meat of the app, which would probably be fine - and
then I don't need to worry about the cocoa compatibility library.  My app is
mostly networking and cryptography anyway, I can afford (and halfway expect)
to redo the UI.
