Hello Rashad,

Wt's android code is intended to build the examples for android. But if
you're writing an application yourself, I expect that you'll have to
provide your own .java files. There are no specific hooks in Wt that allow
to extend the java classes that we provide.

In a project we did, IIRC we extended the JS interface of a webview to
provide access to phone-specific information (call java code from the JS
interface). This will probably also work with GPS and camera. See
http://developer.android.com/guide/webapps/webview.html

BR,
Wim.
