It's 100% of Java "the language", most of the libraries (no AWT nor Swing), perfectly integrated with IDEA and Eclipse (to the point where you can use the debugger and put break points in your application while it's running on the device). It has its own graphic library with, admittedly, a statically typed resource system that will look a bit unusual to newcomers, but again, that's nothing more than a framework doing things slightly differently, like a lot of libraries in the Java ecosystem. I think one of the reasons for Android's success is precisely because Java developers can get up to speed very, very quickly. -- Cédric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
