Although most development on android uses java its supposedly possible
to port over c programs as well. I wonder if its possible to port over
the OLPC version of csound onto android?

I guess that depends upon what's possible with the low level coding on android.

It would be awesome to run csound on my android phone, even in
deffered time to be able to work on pieces when I only have my phone.

It seems like its basically got as much power as the OLPC, but I need
to look at the low level stuff.

I'm motivated to try to make it happen because it would be a good way
to advertise my skills if I can pull it off.

First you would need to port libsndfile and the other dependencies (I
don't know if OLPC builds need anything else). It should be possible,
though: ARM builds for csound exist in debian for quite some time now.

If Android doesn't break much compatibility with other linux OSs, then
it should be fairly straightforward.

Yeah I need to take a closer look at the lower level of android and
see if anyone else has done c cross compilation to arm for the android
platform.

Ironically if Google is only allowing java apps on android then it
would be more possible to port csound to windows mobile than to
android.

The guys who make edgelib got there c++ code to work on the android
emulator in 2007, but that's a while ago, it may be that the android
platform won't allow native code anymore.

I'm doing android dev at the moment for work. As far as I know JNI is
not supported for developers to use in 1.0 or 1.1, though I could be
wrong.  Otherwise, it's available if you are working on the platform
code itself, but then you'd have to compile a whole system image and
flash the ROM on you device. That's as far as I know.

That makes sense, until we get jni its likely better to write an osc front end that can control csound on my mac or olpc with wifi.

It seems it's not exactly difficult to compile a C app for android
(although it is not supported):

That was 2007, now its more locked down. That's why sugar is the best for netbooks because its actually a full featured creative platform.
