After googling this topic and finding nothing, I figured XDA was the place to go. I am looking for a way to get a C++ compiler working on my phone (mytouch slide) or android in general.
Thanks in advance
Que? Like a C++ compiler to compile for android? Why would u want this C++ don't run native on Android it must be called from java so it would be pointless.
There is an sdl port around that required zero knowledge of.java but I believe it still has to compile the java each time. If not it could be possible...

I don't want to run the programs on my phone, just compile
Compile for what?
What is the Android NDK?
The Android NDK is a toolset that lets you embed components that make use of native code in your Android applications.
Android applications run in the Dalvik virtual machine. The NDK allows you to implement parts of your applications using native-code languages such as C and C++. This can provide benefits to certain classes of applications, in the form of reuse of existing code and in some cases increased speed.
The NDK provides:
* A set of tools and build files used to generate native code libraries from C and C++ sources
* A way to embed the corresponding native libraries into an application package file (.apk) that can be deployed on Android devices
* A set of native system headers and libraries that will be supported in all future versions of the Android platform, starting from Android 1.5
* Documentation, samples, and tutorials
The latest release of the NDK supports these ARM instruction sets:
* ARMv5TE (including Thumb-1 instructions)
* ARMv7-A (including Thumb-2 and VFPv3-D16 instructions, with optional support for NEON/VFPv3-D32 instructions)
Future releases of the NDK will also support:
* x86 instructions (see CPU-ARCH-ABIS.TXT for more information)
ARMv5TE machine code will run on all ARM-based Android devices. ARMv7-A will run only on devices such as the Verizon Droid or Google Nexus One that have a compatible CPU. The main difference between the two instruction sets is that ARMv7-A supports hardware FPU, Thumb-2, and NEON instructions. You can target either or both of the instruction sets — ARMv5TE is the default, but switching to ARMv7-A is as easy as adding a single line to the application's Application.mk file, without needing to change anything else in the file. You can also build for both architectures at the same time and have everything stored in the final .apk. For complete information is provided in the CPU-ARCH-ABIS.TXT in the NDK package.
The NDK provides stable headers for libc (the C library), libm (the Math library), OpenGL ES (3D graphics library), the JNI interface, and other libraries, as listed in the section below.
The NDK will not benefit most applications. As a developer, you will need to balance its benefits against its drawbacks; notably, using native code does not result in an automatic performance increase, but does always increase application complexity. Typical good candidates for the NDK are self-contained, CPU-intensive operations that don't allocate much memory, such as signal processing, physics simulation, and so on. Simply re-coding a method to run in C usually does not result in a large performance increase. The NDK can, however, can be an effective way to reuse a large corpus of existing C/C++ code.
Please note that the NDK does not enable you to develop native-only applications. Android's primary runtime remains the Dalvik virtual machine.
The ndk allows u to use c++ c/c++ code in Android. That code must be called from java tho.

I don't think you guys are understanding his question... He's not looking to write apps for Android... he's writing stuff in C++ (presumably for desktop or maybe other embedded applications, I dunno) and just wants to be able to compile that code on his Android device...
Now as far as an answer to that question, they did kinda cover it... Since pretty much everything in Android runs in Java, I believe it would be pretty difficult to write a C++ compiler that could run on Android.
To install an compiler in your Android device, google around for how to install Debian in it. Don't be afraid, you install it in parallel of Android, you will need a command or terminal window as well (available in the marketplace).
Debian comes with everything you need to compile in your device.
I hope I was useful.
Cheers
Thank you abrigham for clearing that up for me. You are exactly correct.
Ernestus, that seems like it would cause more problems then it would be worth
hmm.. i was googling for this as well.. thought it'll be useful to have this around.

Next best option then is to cross-compile to Android/ARM from another platform. The arm-eabi toolchain provided by Google's NDK is one option as others have already mentioned.
Codesourcery ARM toolchain is another, for Linux i686 theres link to the downloadable archive see this post (search for 'wget THISLINK' text on that page).

If your looking to corss compile for android, check this link out.
http://teslacoilsw.com/dropbear
Installing debian isn't too bad, and would give you the most flexibility for compiling on the phone.
You could also ssh into another computer using connectbot or some other terminal and code/compile remotely.
Another way to do remote compiles is continuous integration. Edit/upload the file to your repository, and using a server such as Jenkins, run the compile and view the results through the browser or an app such as Hudson2Go. Jenkins will also auto-compile on edits and can send you a text if the build fails. Jenkins is very easy to setup.
Try finding an online c++ compiler or you could connect to a windows or linux machine/server to upload andcompile your c++ files.

Use "c4droid" this is a paid app.. anywy if you like search on the market.
Another alternitiv is out there now. Not sure how good it works.
C / C++ Compiler
im looking for compiler too i found i market a4droid compiler but it costs... and i couldnt find enywhere free apk
Easiest thing to do would be a chroot Linux environment from an existing distribution, like Ubuntu. Then compilers for nearly any language you can think of are an "apt-get install" away.
If you're running CyanogenMod 7, you have a large SD card, and you don't mind repartitioning the SD card and shaving off 2 GB or 4 GB for Linux, then I'll be posting a howto in the next day or two. I have Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot running out of /sd-ext cleanly, using only files from official sources (<32 MB file from cdimage.ubuntu.com and everything else via apt/dpkg with signature verification) rather than from rapidshare-like sites.
Or about a year ago there were instructions posted for unzipping a ~2 GB image containing an older version of Ubuntu downloaded from a filesharing site. You could do that if you have an immediate need.
you can download from my blog
http://dateno1.egloos.com/855501
it from https://market.android.com/details?id=com.n0n3m4.gcc4droid&feature=more_from_developer
it has some library problem but work well (i already compile few binary for my phone )
I think c4droid maches perfectly what you were looking for. I'm using it to work on my projects "on the road" and so far it works pretty well.
A little tricky to set up, since you need "gcc plugin for c4droid" but to choose g++ compiler, and builds are saved at "data/data/com.n0n2m3.c4droid/files/temp" or something like that...
There's another option, but you still have to pay: DroidEdit Pro. Perhaps better editor (didn't test it though) but without it's own compiler, you have to set up an external compiler from sftp server.
Is there any way to compile java applications in android?
i wanna write simple java applications like i do in ms-dos
"javac file.java, java file".
could somebody tell me if i can do it?

if you want to build an app of course you can but i don`t know if that`s so simple. depends on knowledge
but you can start here:
1. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
2. http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
3. you will need java too
are you sure i do this on my mobile?
if i got it,right this is how i make application in my pc,not in my xperia!
i want that, in my android

download terminal emulator from market and you will have access to shell through phone
well u cant , cause Android doesnt have a JVM , it has a Dalvik Virtual Machine, and its optmized for mobile aplications and for the hw of the device, but u can emulate some plataform, but if u want to compile just some java code, there some solutions in the forum like install ubuntu and compile there, but an aplications native for android is a lil' hard
edit---
you can read this, is very helpfull...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_(software) Dalvik VM
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Compiler.html Compiler API ANDROID (u can use it =) in ur aplication)
installing/emulating ubuntu just for compiling java is a bit out of my limits!
i dont want to compile any crazy program, just some easy programs.
there is not other solution, than this?
java compilation on android device
I'm looking to do likewise for various reasons.
One is I live in a tent and the droid device consumes less power than my laptop.
Two is that I'm developing a platform that moves some 'programmer space' activities to user space. Though with java the later can normally be accomplished wo authoring any source or compiling by using introspection and object serialisation (granted an android based dx is needed here) there are use levels of the platform that afford source authoring and compilation.
Having said that as far as I can tell a javac for android is in order.
Thus: openjdk.java.net/groups/compiler/README.html
One needs to verify the source's class dependencies and see if the android vm (the dalvik vm really) implements those classes. If and where not either the compiler code needs to be modified to use dalvik implemented java classes or the dalvik vm extended to accommodate the additional classes, again if any, that the javac source uses.
The determination as to which direction to take need consider the effort involved
either way and the legalities of either way while noting that the dalvik vm is allready the subject of a lawsuit (see Controversy at en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_(software) ).
Personnaly I'm leaning to modify the javac source if necessary as this
openjdk.java.net/legal/
doesn't look prohibitive in so long, I think, as the language specs are met or more simply.in so long as the modified to run on android javac produces the same results as the original.
If you're ready to get yor hands dirty (not all coding is drag and drop) here ya go
download.java.net/openjdk/jdk6/
Maybe we'll meet somewhere along the way.
Sp
I got ClassCycle and ran it on the classes that resulted from me compiling the javac sources
in the openjdk's langtools directory . These sources are a programatic interface to javac and
are said to be used at one's own risk.I had trouble compiling the 'actual' sources
but will try again.
Once I can make heads or tails of the ClassCycle report I can provide a list
of javac's class deps.
Why one might ask would is any of this class deps stuff needed?
Dx the Java bytecod+e and run it. Droid has a vm, should be ok.
The problem is that Dalvik, at least does not implment awt and swing. What this means is that there is no native implementation for those classes' bytecode to be runtime instantiated towards.
Likewise if there are javac class deps that the dalvik vm does not implement there will be no native implementation in those areas and the bytecode won't run.
Till I get the list,
Steve

For rooted systems there is a way to run Ubuntu in the phone/tablet. I don't remember the details, just google for it. I only remember that you should use a VNC viewer to connect to the xserver running in your own system.
I don't know if you can access from that Ubuntu to the resources of your Android (sensors, GPS, camera, and so on).
If you want to be able to create small programs in an easy way for your Android and being able to access all sensors and peripherals of your phone you should consider using SL4A (Script Layer for Android).
It's a base scripting system. On top of it you can install Python, PHP, Bash. So you can write your own scripts using any text editor in the phone, and run it without using any computer in the process
java compilation on android device
A year later and:
JavaIDEDroid: http://code.google.com/p/java-ide-droid
AIDE: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aide.ui&hl=en
and probably others as well.
I will no longer be updating this guide, to keep up to date with the project please see the App thread HERE. The Free app can be downloaded HERE and the Paid HERE
First and for most this guide has been created from a mixture of a few guides to get it all working on the tablets, I do not take any credit for the methods all I have done is taken the time to work out how to get it working on our tablet. This guide is for windows or can be done all on the tablet. Anyway on with the guide
How To Install Ubuntu on the Desire S
Before we start you will need a ROM and kernel that supports loop devices.
This works best on UrukDroid but may well work on stock roms, due to the lack of RAM ubuntu isn't very fast but everything works unlike running it outside of ubuntu.
It is also recommend that you have the Android SDK install so that you can access adb however all commands can be done on the tablet via the terminal emulator
Also make sure that you have debugging mode enabled Go to Settings->Applications->Development and make sure USB Debugging is checked ON.
You will also need atleast 3.5GB of memory card space
Download and extract ubuntu.zip
Once you have a working ROM with loop support you must now download the special modified ubuntu image. I have hosted the file on my own server however if this is not quick enough feel free to mirror it or message me and I shall host else where as well.
There are now three versions to use as you wish, however the new 10.10 image has pretty much everything working, see change log at the bottom of the next post. the 11.10 image's UI does not work right and the 9.04 image is well rather old
[*]10.10 image V2 (Recommend)
[*]10.10 image OLD
[*]11.10 image
[*]Old 9.04 image
Once you have downloaded this .zip file you will need to extract it to a folder on your sdcard name this folder "ubuntu".
Install and run Ubuntu!
If you do not have the android SDK install or wish to do all the commands via your tablet please skip to step 7
1) Connect your Desire S to your computer via your USB cable and make sure USB mode is set to “Just Charge”.
2) Your Android device should be recognized as “ADB Device” under Device Manager. If not, install appropriate drivers.
3) Now open a command window and navigate to the directory that you have installed the android SDK for example
Code:
cd c:\android-sdk
4) From here then navigate to the platform-tools directory
Code:
cd platform-tools
5) Now type “adb devices” to double-check your Android device is recognized. It should display something along the lines of
Code:
Lists of devices attached
HT09SR204261 device
If not then you have not installed the drivers for your tablet or it is not in debugging mode.
6) Next type “adb shell” to enter the Android shell
7) Now type su to enter super user mode, then type cd /sdcard and then cd ubuntu to enter the directory on the SD card that you stored the ubuntu files.
Code:
su
cd /sdcard
cd ubuntu
8) Then type sh ubuntu.sh this will run the included script to ready your ubuntu image, do not worry about any error messages that are displayed!
Code:
sh ubuntu.sh
8.5) If running the 10.10 V2 image you should get this message 'please wait while booting the ubuntu img, please wait as this could take a while.' if you do get this then ubuntu is running and you just need to open vnc and connect to get into ubuntu. Please see the bug section on the second post for more information!
9) Now type bootubuntu to enter ubuntu (note in the future to start ubuntu simply type bootubuntu there is no need to run the script again)
Code:
bootubuntu
You should now see something along the lines of
Code:
[email protected]:/#
If you don't then its likely the ROM your using does not support loop devices and you will need to install one of the ROMs from the top of this guide to get it working.
And thats it you now have a working ubuntu command line running within android! however this isnt really much use so lets now get a more useful system running
How to Install TightVNCserver
This is by far the best program to install first off as it will let you access the GUI of Ubuntu as it run on your Desire S. (note this is already included in the 10.10 (V1 and V2) image there is no need to carry out this step)
0) Before you install any program first we need to update by typing
Code:
apt-get update
1) Now type “apt-get install tightvncserver” to install the VNC server.
it shall then as you if you wish to install the program etc etc say yes and it will install, simples.
How to Install LXDE (optional but recommended)
only need to carry out this step if you are using the 9.04 image
1) Type “apt-get install lxde” and ubuntu will do the rest
Set up TightVNCServer and fix keyboard issues
(note on the 10.10 image this step has been included already! so no need to carry it out)
Before we launch the TightVNCServer we much make changes the the xstartup file to change to it uses LXDE if we want this and also to fix a big issue with the android keyboard not being mapped correctly.
1) Start off by typing
Code:
cat > /root/.vnc/xstartup
To open the file we need to make changes in
2) Now type
Code:
#!/bin/sh
xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
icewm &
lxsession
The last two lines you will only want to type if you have installed LXDE if you want to use XFCE leave these lines off. The line above this (export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1) is what is needed to fix the keyboard mapping.
3) Now press ctrl+D twice and then press enter to the save the file, we are now ready to start up the VNCServer!
Start TightVNCServer
Now we are ready to start the server and connect our tablet or windows computer to the Ubuntu running within our tablet! (This step is not needed in the new 10.10 V2 image VNCserver now auto starts)
1) Start off by typing
Code:
export USER=root
vncserver -geometry 1024×800
you can change the resolution settings 1024×800 to the resolution of your liking. I find 800x480 does work well but limts your work space so its up to you.
2)TightVNCServer will then ask you for a password to connect to it, fill this in and your server will be then ready to accept any incoming connection from your tablet or computer! (on the 10.10 image it will not ask for this, the password is set to ubuntu)
Connect to VNC on your tablet
1) download the free app Android-VNC-viewer
2) open the app and set your IP address to 127.0.0.1 ( set this to localhost in 10.10 V2) and port number 5901 (5900 in 10.10 V2) and enter the password you set before (or ubuntu on 10.10 images) to then connect.
If all works right you will have a working GUI!!!
Connect to VNC on your computer
1)Start by downloading the desktop version of TightVNC Here
and install it
2) Open the TightVNC Viewer from the start menu it will ask for your tablets IP address, to find this type ifconfig in your ubuntu terminal it will display your IP.
3)Type this into TightVNC and remember to add the port 5901 (5900 in 10.10 V2), it will then ask you for the password ('ubuntu' on 10.10 image) , enter this and you should then have a fully working GUI on your computer!

What is Ubuntu? and why would I want it on my tablet
Ubuntu is a linux based operating system normally for the computer, however with this port we can run it on our tablet, this allows you to pretty much install any software available for linux and run it on your tablet.
What are the best settings for Android VNC Viewer?
I find full 24-bit colour works very well and there is no need to down step this, also Input Mode is best set to touchpad as the GUI is not very touch screen friendly when its this small! using touchpad makes the touch screen act just like the touch pad on a laptop and I find this very easy to use.

New 11.10 ubuntu 4GB image
Changed guide for new image
+MUCH more (will add later)
Bugs
At the moment to use the new 10.10 V2 image you have to carry out steps 7 to 8.5 each time in order to get into the GUI, which means the only way to use terminal for ubuntu is within the GUI, this isnt to bad as the build is now very stable
At the moment once you start ubuntu it seems to prevent the sdcard being mounted and as there is no way to shut down the ubuntu session you must reboot if you wish to mount the sdcard via usb
Java might still not be working right please test!!
Other Programs to Install
Ok so as I start working on testing more programs I will post here how well they work and what does and dosnt work. Most programs that run from terminal and don't require any hardware like wifi etc seem to work well!
JAVA SE FOR EMBEDDED
To install the Java version for arm open up the terminal and type the following lines of code
Code:
wget http://android.zpwebsites.com/java.tar.gz
This will download the java package from my server!
Once downloaded type
Code:
gunzip java.tar.gz
Code:
tar xvf java.tar
This will extract the java package into a folder called ejre1.6.0_27
then type
Code:
export JAVA_HOME=ejre1.6.0_27
Code:
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
Java should then be completely installed, please test by typing
Code:
which java
TipsSome android terminal emulators (e.g. better terminal) allow you to specify an initial command that is run as soon as you launch the application. Multiple initial commands can be defined by pressing return between each command when you define it, so for example the initial command:
Code:
su <return>cd /sdcard/external_sd/ubuntu <return>sh ubuntu.sh <return>
This way to load the new 10.10 V2 image simply open the terminal emulator
Help Needed
I would love for people to test there fav linux programs, also anyone that knows alot about ubuntu/linux to help getting the image to run faster etc etc

Then you didn't read the instructions, as that is the directory you are creating when extracting the files from the rar.
You are supposed to copy the whole directory to the archoos, not the files in there.
put the folder on the sdcard or internal storage?

A side note, If this does work as well as it should I shall be making a app some what like the one you liked to kylon, It will include everything in this guide along with some extras, the app will be free but there will be a paid version for those wishing to donate
The server died due to so to many http requests at once , so I have removed the files as I need my server for my websites etc
They will all be moved to multiupload, the first being my new release, the problem is my upload is max 100KB/s so going to take a few more hours likely
Ok new download link is up, sorry it took so long, you can download here
The first version of the app is now online, the UI is basic but It guides you through the install and give a easy way to download the newest version I have built.
You can download the app here
And I have made a donation version for those that want to support me, its only 99p and you will be the first to get new builds and features! this can be download here
To anyone not using the app, the newest version of my ubuntu.sh and the newest images seem to work much better on the Gen 8 tablets I will update the guide at some point but for now please download the app and use the image and script included in the app!

Not great on Ubuntu but it a permission issue, you have to type 'su' without the quotes before the command
sudo apt-get install -name of file
Come to think of it you can use the Ubuntu software manager to download the java jdk ..

Architekt is a custom Virtual Machine that can be used with Mac OSX, Windows, and Linux. It includes everything you need to sync with the repo of your choice (Cyanogenmod, AOKP, AOSP, etc) and start compiling Android ROMs. This version includes Java 6 for compiling Gingerbread thru Kitkat. To compile Android L, switch to OpenJDK7.
Features:
- Latest Arch system
- XFCE Desktop Environment
- All necessary packages for compiling
- No junk (games, etc)
- Geany for editing code
All you have to do is download the source!
The only requirement is that your host machine supports a 64 bit OS. 32 bit systems will not work!
Instructions:
1. Download and install VirtualBox for your host system from here.
2. Download the latest architekt zip archive and extract architekt.ova to your hard drive.
3. Start VB, click File > Import Appliance. Select "Open Appliance" and choose architekt.ova, then click Next to import the virtual machine.
4. Highlight architekt in VirtualBox Manager and open Settings. Under "System" you will want to give it more RAM and Processor Cores. The higher these values are, the faster you will compile ROMs.
5. Start the machine, pull up a terminal and initialize a git repo. Once the source is finished downloading, you're ready to go!

You might want to try BuilduntuVM instead.
Architekt is getting pretty dated, and I don't have any time or plans to update it. BuilduntuVM received a lot more attention and is up to date with the latest versions of OpenJDK etc. for compiling Android M.
