It involves compilation with another toolchain, and linking with previously pre-compiled libraries (libusb...). So I think it's rather dependent on the needs and the tools. But I'm not the specialist of the question, I wasn't myself in charge of pppob's compilation under android.
Maybe the simplest would be to provide pre-compiled binaries, but I fear it would be too much time-consuming. > There's not much I can do about the lack of exception support. > > - Chris > > > On Fri, Sep 16, 2011 at 09:43:44AM +0200, Nicolas CARRIER wrote: >> 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).
