Clement Escoffier resolved FELIX-1156.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Fixed at revision 774881.
Allow Felix to run on a regular Android phone (Android 1.5). 
This is possible by using the loadDex method of the android.dalvik.DexFile 
class.

So, the resulting framework runs on Android 1.5.

> To run Felix on Android, it generally require to have the root access to the 
> device to grant permissions on the dalvik-cache 
> (http://ipojo-dark-side.blogspot.com/2008/10/ipojo-on-android.html). 
> Moreover, Felix loads dex files by relying on an internal/private API of 
> Android.
> Android 1.5 (CupCake) provides a method to load DEX file. This method is 
> public, is part of the API and allows to turn around the permission issue.
