Multiple binaries

[satanclaus]

Hi,

I want to distribute an android root application that installs a binary suitable for that particular architecture. E.g. armv4l, armv7, mips, x86, etc.

How do I go about it in basic4ppc ?

Are you loading any native library (so file)?

No, it's statically linked, self-compiled.

Your APK will support all CPUs.

Your APK will support all CPUs.

Ofcourse the APK will, but the native binary I want to place into /system/xbin/ is an ARM binary. I have compiled the binary for different architectures but unsure how to install the 'correct' one for the particular device.

(With "native binary" i mean it's an ELF binary)

How do you execute / run this binary file?

 

[satanclaus]

Think 'busybox'. It's installed into /system/xbin/ and can be run from terminal for example.

You can probably run a shell command like 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' to find out the device architecture.
