It is eminently possible to embed a Web server in an Android app, but you would not be using servlets or WAR files as separately distributable things. Rather, you would have to teach the Web server that on certain URL patterns to go call some internal class within the APK. > My final aim is to run a Rest based web server and client in Android > device. Again, why? If you want to build a Web application that runs natively on the device, you do not need a Web server -- use addJavascriptInterface() as does PhoneGap. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 3.5 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
