Hi.I'm back again with my weekly progress. Not easy at all to write after
each week, and i hope i won't soon give up.
Stage 2 Running Tuscany SCA from Android
Running the existing version of calculator-android fires the following error
in the android Logcat:

Regarding my experience with Abdera, the tweakings i performed with the
calculator-android, and the openness of android, i suggest these:
- Creating an eclipse workspace for tuscany’s projects on which the
calculator-android depends on;
- Replacing their references to the JRE library by another reference but
to Android Library (android.jar)
- Replacing all references to external jars by relevant projects source
code. I first thought that checking out those projects in the workspace will
be ok but as they include android’s native packages namespace (ex:
javax.xml), they’ll surely for security reason will be rejected at launch by
android (java.lang.verifyError exceptions). I guess the solution now will be
to rebuild the android.jar with the sources of these projects.
I’ve listed projects that should be included in the calculator-android
build path, and create a new workspace with’em and the calculator-android
project.
tuscany-assembly
tuscany-assembly-xml
tuscany-assembly-xsd
tuscany-binding-sca

I then build a list of the needed jars, and have started downloading
their source code. Here are the concerned projects:
easymock-2.4 --ok
axiom-api-1.2.7 --ok
axiom-impl-1.2.7 --ok
commons-logging-1.1.1 --ok
geronimo-activation_1.1_spec-1.0.1 --ok

jaxen-1.1.1 --ok
junit-4.5 --ok
neethi-2.0.4 --ok

asm-all-3.1 --ok

jsr-181-api-1.0
jsr250-api-1.0
jdk tools (com.sun...)
*Projects for which i already have sources (svn, cvs, zip & jnlp
download), are marked “ok”. *
It just dawned on me that these projects may also have references to some
jars files. It’s going to be harder then i think. Uploading all these
projects into my workspace and resolving their dependencies by getting their
sources too won’t be easy at all.
Later i’ll add those projects sources to android sources and perform a
“make sdk”. I hope to have then an “Tuscanily” operational android.jar.
*Questions:*
- Can anyone give help on how to have the jsr listed above implementation
sources?
- In which directory exactly and how should i organize those source
files in android sources directory to get them built in the new
android.jar?
- Is there anyway rebuilding android.jar, using some jar files? Some
may say that i’m lazy ;.) but!!!!!
