Re: Is there any way to build Maemo applications which can run on N800 outside of the scratchbox
With Python it's possible to dynamically detect if you're on maemo or not and load the real maemo stuff or just some proxies. This is the way I develop MediaBox on my Linux desktop. With C it's possible too, but a bit more complicated.

Theoretically, I could do emdebian development for my Nokia, but the dependencies of the compiled applications would be all wrong. I have not succeded at doing qemu emulation of a maemo build environment, although that would potentially be very nice. You'll probably need to build/download your own cross-compiler. What's your objection with scratchbox? Too big? If so, I've had success using my Maemo rootstrap with scratchbox 2, which is a much more generic tool. I did find that I've had to put some work into hacking the path mapping script that scratchbox 2 uses to get the right paths mapped in and out of the build root, but nothing too difficult. --Ken -- Ken (Chanoch) Bloom.

Is there any way to build Maemo applications which can run on N800 outside of the scratchbox
Dear all: I am going to do some application development test on N800, however I do not want to use scratchbox. And I am really confused of how to extract the cross compiler tool chain from Scratchbox and make it run in my Linux environment. Is there anybody who may give me some tips? Thanks in advance!
