(12/17/2013 12:00:19 AM) Day changed to 17 Dec 2013
(12:01:34 AM) xranby_ac100: so in order to write a npapi plugin for android the icedtea-web code needs to get updated to use the  android_npapi.h     https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/plugins/base/android/android_npapi.h
(12:27:02 AM) sgothel: hmm
(12:28:21 AM) xranby_ac100: https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/plugins/base/npapi.h  <- 471 typedef struct _NPWindow 472 { 473   void* window;  /* Platform specific window handle */
(12:28:22 AM) sgothel: for native window parenting ok .. just thinking loud about whether to use dalvik or jdk8 ..
(12:28:57 AM) sgothel: and this interface does not solve mouse/keyboard input handling .. or does it ?
(12:29:57 AM) sgothel: however the details are: we have 2 options: dalvik or jdk8
(12:30:32 AM) sgothel: jdk8 = jamvm+ .. I guess
(12:31:08 AM) xranby_ac100: if we can statically link and bundle eglibc with jdk8 and jamvm then it should run on andorid
(12:31:14 AM) sgothel: ok .. that API incl. even input events
(12:31:45 AM) xranby_ac100: easier than porting jdk8 and jamvm to bionic
(12:31:45 AM) sgothel: 'eglibc' ?
(12:31:58 AM) sgothel: really ?
(12:32:08 AM) xranby_ac100: the flavour of glibc used by all recent gnu linux distributions
(12:32:09 AM) sgothel: but then, why not simply using Dalvik
(12:33:04 AM) xranby_ac100: you can run classes
(12:33:12 AM) xranby_ac100: instead of dex
(12:33:14 AM) sgothel: sure .. users would need to provide APKs besides JAR files .. or we would need to add the JAR->APK handling
(12:34:14 AM) sgothel: performance is probably better w/ Dalvik that w/ JamVM .. but we will see how all that goes
(12:34:42 AM) sgothel: *than*
(12:34:49 AM) xranby_ac100: i leave the benchmark numbers to the benchmarks to decide
