I would like to have a .jar, but the current situation, I would say I
couldn't see this coming any soon.

Because, the .jar is just a binding layer over C++ object files. Which means
it does nothing without those C++ files.

And those C++ files is built depending on ARCH, for example ARM.



That means, the source code we have is not cross-platform. You need
different C++ object files for different platform.

Subject: [dev] IoTivity binary release for Android



It would be nice to have IoTivity binaries (the shared libs and the jar) for
Android. This way a normal Android developer who wants to do something with
IoTivity does not have to compile some C code, but can just use the
precompiled binaries and build an Android app around it.



I think having to use scons is a barrier for new developers and you can
build an Android app with just using Java if we would ship the android
binaries.



It would be nice to have this for the next release.
