> For my honours thesis I ported various parts of Android to run on OKL4 on
> the Android Developer Phone 1 (HTC Dream). This includes the Dalvik Virtual
> Machine and input framework with both keypad and touchscreen implemented.
> The display can also be accessed from within the Java code by using
> Android's 2D graphics library. It is also possible to run multiple
> applications which can communicate over L4 IPC.

> Currently, only one graphical application can be run at a time which is
> determined at build-time. You can download the source code
> http://www.ertos.nicta.com.au/software/androidokl4/ here  and follow the
> guide to setup the build environment. It's a bit long-winded, partially
> because there are two source trees (one for Android and one for OKL4).

> The port is preliminary and only supports running the LunarLander
> application unmodified which is found in the Android SDK. However, new
> applications can be written using 2D graphics and input. At this point in
> time there is no guide on how to write such applications, but if there is
> interest I may consider writing one.
