Lets Android application developers build portions of their apps in native code. The Android NDK is a companion tool to the Android SDK that lets Android application developers build portions of their apps in native code.Android NDK is designed for use only in conjunction with the Android SDK, so if you have not already installed the Android 1.5 SDK, please do so before downloading the NDK. Also, please read What is the Android NDK? to get an understanding of what the NDK offers and whether it will be useful to you.The Android NDK provides tools that allow Android application developers to embed components that make use of native code in their Android applications.Android applications run in the Dalvik virtual machine. The NDK allows developers to implement parts of their 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. Here are some key features of "Android NDK": · 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 application package files (.apks) 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. · Android NDK also provides samples, documentation and tutorials.
