jni

I am completely new to the NDK.

I have done a couple of the tutorials including the hello from jni one and another one that calculates the sum of two numbers.

They involved using cygwin and the ndk to create the library so file and I have a bit of a grasp on how to insert my own libraries into the libraries layer of Android.

I have now been asked to access the native libraries on Android and see what I can use them for.

My question is can I do this?

The STABLE-APIS.txt document is a bit vague and mentions the following as Stable C++ API's in Android 1.5

cstddef

new

utility

stl_pair.h

Does that mean I can access them?

If so then how do I go about it? I dont think that following the tutorials I have already done would be any help?

Any pointers on how to do this or links to tutorials etc.. would be greatly appreciated
