Hi all, I succeeded in using v8 via JNI and the ndk from within my android app. The idea here is to reuse existing JS code but with performance improvements. I have some questions regarding the build flags for the different architectures.
I was under the impression that v8 builds for ARMv5 by default. Is that correct? I also read somewhere that when compiled for ARMv5 v8 would not use the JIT and so performance would suffer. In any case, how would I go about compiling for ARMv5 or ARMv7 explicitly? Would it make sense to compile v8 with softfp and/or neon? I'm working with fairly math intensive code. I would also like to investigate building for MIPS, so that I have all tablet hardware covered. Can I use trunk for that at the moment, or should I try to work with the code from https://github.com/paul99/v8m-rb/? Thanks for your input, and for this best of JS VMs :) Regards, Kevin -- v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users
