Hello Compiling barry for Android is not trivial. The two main problems we encountered are barry's dependencies and the lack of some features in Android's C and C++ support (mainly exceptions). What we had to do was to compile statically the binary we were interested in, statically linked with another version of the libc and statically linked with barry's other dependencies. The binary is bigger (and maybe slower, don't know) but it was the least painful solution we could think of.
