It says "Shared lib already loaded in same CL" and doesn't re-call the constructors.

They're loaded the first time you call System.loadLibrary. But there's no way to unload them manually. I guess the OS eventually unloads them "whenever it feels like it".

Be careful about those lines leading to "Process is killed". You can go directly from onPause to onCreate without passing through onStop/onDestroy. This caused some pretty nasty bugs in my C++ code because the C++ libs are not always reloaded when onCreate is called.

In fact, if you're doing NDK programming you can just ignore this graph completely except for onPause/onResume.

I would recommend learning Java first, then jumping into the Android SDK afterwards. Learning two things at once is a recipe for frustration. There are a good list of Java tutorials for the absolute beginner on Stack Overflow.

Are we allowed to post videos? I made a video showing my progress so far on an Android game I'm developing. Nothing too exciting, just some placeholder art with parallax scrolling and a demonstration of my debug information for input gestures.

Things are moving slower than I would like right now, 60-hour weeks at work kill my available free time and enthusiasm. Hopefully things will pick up in the future!

They're blog posts not tutorials, they're aimed at game programmers who have already used these concepts in the past and just need to know the Android specifics.

Even if all you've got is some coloured squares on a screen, all our projects start somewhere, and we promise we won't laugh.

You promised you wouldn't laugh so here's what I've got so far (visually), just doing some rendering tests with placeholder art.

I'm writing an Android game and blogging about it.

Android Game Development Blog

I'm a full-time console games programmer who is writing an Android C++ 2D OpenGL game in my free time and blogging about it. I'm basically blogging about every single new thing I learn about Android programming that would be of use to some one else with a similar background to mine.

Sorry this one took so long, writing and testing my data packing program and filling in the outlines of my rendering engine took a while.

Would anyone be interested in my data packing workflow? It's not 100% Android related but if people are curious I could give an overview and maybe post the source code.

I'm trying to use /assets with the AssetManager, but I still have to use files certain file extensions like .mp3 or .png, it fails to find the asset if I call it .pkm or .txt for example. Any idea why?

descriptor = mContext.getApplicationContext().getAssets().openFd("tex.mp3");

Thanks! I've added a link.

By the way, how did you get that syntax colouring for your code boxes? (I'm using movable type, and I'm pretty new to blogging)

I'll let you know if WinGDB releases a working debugger in the future.
