Apple-Samsung patent case

[Ladas]

Does anyone have an idea of how the Apple-Samsung $1Billion case might affect the Basic4Android developers' environment? I have heard reports that Samsung might have to change software such as that of the Galaxy series. Any likelihood of that happening?:sign0163:

Basic4android creates native applications. Assuming that Samsung will not break existing native APIs then there there will be no direct impact.

Thanks Erel, I would really hate to see something bad happen to this wonderful development platform.

Erel,
In the WCS, will the impact be on Samsong mobiles only or all Android phones.

 

[Erel]

What is WCS?

Erel,
sorry I mean worst case senario
I am writing for Samsung clones

Basic4android applications are exactly the same as other Java created applications. This means that as long as Samsung remains compatible with the 700k Google Play applications then Basic4android will also work fine.
