I wasn't aware of the NDK for android -- wow, it looks awesome, and it would *really* help my app with some image processing. So here's my dilemma:
Does anyone know if all android devices are ARM at the moment? It seems a bit of a risk to depend on this as an app developer. Or should we just presume that any non-ARM tools/compilers would become available to us app developers as non-ARM handsets appear? Can anyone shed some light on the facts? I could really benefit from some native code without potentially alienating a subset of Android users. I'm sure there are people who have considered all this with respect to Native Code vs. Different Handset Manufacturers. -broc On Sep 22, 12:56 am, "Mark Murphy" <[email protected]> wrote: > > i am working on a android project that usestesseractOCR engines..i > > hv been searching on internet from past few days about any support for > >tesseractfor android platform..but i didnt get any help...Plz help me > > about how i do usetesseractfor android platform...or how do i > > install it on android.. > > > any kind of help is highly appriciated... > > Tesseractis not Java code.
