If you guys think this is too complicated, an alternative approach is to use the Android NDK (as I mentioned in my first email in this thread). This would require writing a simple make file, Android.mk, that tells the system what shared and/or static libraries to build, which source file to use for each library, etc. We can then write a java application using the java bindings that will run on Android and call methods in the native brltty libraries.
Of course, as Dave pointed out earlier, the Android.mk file would have to be updated when adding/deleting/renaming files in brltty.
