<br>
I have ported Erlang/OTP R15B03 to Android, to work with Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A). This involved some patches to the Erlang/OTP source and build scripts (configure, Makefile, etc). I also wrote the installation app to install is under SL4A. Access to the SL4A API is provided, but I have not tried all available functions. I have included all OTP applications except the ones that are only useful with a gui.<br>
<br>
It is possible to use the interactive shell or to specify a .erl file (which will be compiled if not yet compiled) and run its main/0 function.<br>
<br>
I have tried the port on some Android devices, and it worked on all of them. The device does not need to be rooted to use the port.<br>
<br>
What would be the best way to release this to the public, considering the license of Erlang/OTP? Should I put the entire source on some repository provider, or just a script that will modify the original Erlang/OTP sources?<br>
<br>
