*Title:*
Painless debugging of native code in Android-based devices
*Abstract:*
Advanced Android apps may use native C/C++ code called trough the Java
Native Interface. Such Android apps are made possible by the Android Native
Development Kit.
The Eclipse-based Android IDE is great for creating Java apps, but for
debugging native code on a physical ARM-based device there are many
obstacles. This talk will show how debugging can be made less painful by
using the DS-5 Community Edition Eclipse plugin. Two debug sessions will be
walked trough. The first example shows debugging a shared library belonging
to a stand-alone app. The second example shows how to debug a system
service in a Linaro AOSP-based Android system using real-time profiling to
visualize activity in the device.
The presentation is aimed at developers who are not Linux gurus, but are
entering the Linux community trough Android. That can e.g. be former Java
developers or former RTOS developers switching to Android in their embedded
devices.

CFP deadline is on Friday, so please send me feedback ASAP.

Hi there. We're thinking of getting involved in the toolchain side of
Renderscript. It's LLVM based and has an interesting split model and
there's quite a bit of potential for performance, debugging, and
tracing improvements.
See the wiki[1] for my (limited) notes. Has anyone used Renderscript
in anger? Any comments or people I should talk to?

Happy 2012!
I wanted to give people a heads up. I'll be back Thursday the 5th.
I hope everyones had a great break.
Remember the deadline for submitting to ELC and Android Builders is
