I suspect that not everyone know or wants to learn Java. Not only that, its
not that straight forward with Java. There are a number of tools around that
mean you DON'T have to learn Java.

Hi,

 

Why not just do it the 'standard' java way? Free tools and very easy to get
started... access to all the APIs and lots of examples and docs as well as
how to get started tutorials.

 

Regards

Colin

That Basic4Android looks really interesting, maybe a silly question, but how
to make an app available to an Android device? As a download obviously, but
not quite sure how this is suppose to work. Thanks

Or wait for Embarcadero to get the Android stuff out.
The FPC stuff is a bit of a faff IMHO to get working.

I have been using a tool call Basic4Android. Don't let the "Basic" part put
you off this is a fantastic tool. It uses a language similar to VB.Net but
compiles down to a proper Java classs etc.
There is a LOT of help available and its really well supported.
Best of all, its only $49US for a 3mth support/upgrade path. But I highly
recommend it.
