Go 1.3 is going to target android/arm: http://talks.golang.org/2014/go1.3.slide#12 http://talks.golang.org/2014/go1.3.slide#12. I'm not sure if this will lead to a full blown SDK for Android.
- axaxs 13y agoDon't be mislead... this is just running on Android, which has long been possible. You still can't write/distribute a purely Go application in say, the play store.
- aray 13y agoAndroid runs on more than just arm -- anything supported by the platform needs to support MIPS and x86 as well.
- yebyen 13y agoIt does have support, but I've seen exactly one MIPS droid (a budget tablet called a 'Cruz' that had great battery life and terrible performance) and zero x86 androids (other than ones I put together for myself from android-x86.org). So, I wouldn't say it needs to support these platforms. Just that not supporting them would be a glaring omission.
- yla92 13y agoIMHO, it doesn't mean you can write for Android in go as much as you do in java.
