14. LIBRARIES
Resting on Linux kernel there is a set of libraries
comprising of:
• Open source Web browser engine Web Kit,
• LIBC, well known standard C library,
• SQLite database which is a suitable source for storing
data,
• Libraries to play and record audio and video,
• SSL libraries accountable for Internet security, etc.

15. ANDROID LIBRARIES
This section comprises of those Java-based libraries that
are explicit to Android development.
Andy Rubin
android.app
Offers access to the application model and is the basis of all Android
applications
android.content
Enables content access, publishing and messaging between applications
and
application components
android.databas
e
Enables access to data published by content providers and includes
SQLite
database management classes
android.opengl A Java interface to the OpenGL ES 3D graphics executing API
17. APP DEVELOPMENT
To build application for android, you’ll need :
• Java SE Development Kit (JDK)
• The Android SDK
• Development Environment
(Android Studio or Eclipse)
18. ANDROID SDK (Software Development Kit)
• The android SDK is made up of two main parts: The tools
and the Packages.
• When you first install the SDK, all you get are base tools.
These are executable and supporting files that helps to
develop applications.
• Every time Google releases a new version of Android, a
corresponding SDK is also released. To be able to write
programs with the latest features, developers must
download and install each version’s SDK for the particular
phone.

Debugger
An Emulator

20. COMPONENTS OF APPLICATION
Following four components that can be
used within an application:
• Activities :-
They dictate the UI and handle the user
interaction to the smartphone screen
public class MainActivity extends
Activity {
…
} Activity 1 Activity 2
21. …COMPONENTS OF APPLICATION
• Services :-
They handle background processing associated with an
application
public class MyService extends Service { }
• Broadcast Receivers :-
They handle communication between Android OS and
applications
public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { }
• Content Providers :-
They handle data and database management issues.
public class MyContentProvider extends ContentProvider { }
23. How Android Code Compiles To Deliver .APK
Package File ?
• Android java code files compiles to .class files
via javac command
• .class files (i.e. Java byte-code) further get converted
to dalvik byte-codes
• Packaging is done using android apkbuilder tool(APPT). It
generate a .apk file from a :
DEX file + non-Java libraries + zipped resources.
which is the .apk file what you run on android device
