Re: [fluid-dev] Official android support.

So you have an unofficial port of glib that can be used to build FluidSynth so it runs on Android?

 

Any chance you can share the binaries (I’m hopeless at building Linux stuff using the command line, only know how to build Android apps) and a simple example?

 

All I want to do is load an arbitrary sound font and send MIDI on/off events to play sounds. I don’t even care about updates to the lib as long as it just works.

 

 

Best regards,

 

Nick

So do I, but this is not going to happens... like ever.

The issue can be summarised to "get rid of glib dependancy".

glib is used as portable layer for alot of FluidSynth internals, unfortunately glib has no Android port...

So we are stuck with unofficial forks like mine...

 

I try to keep it updated with upstream, merge conflicts are minimals but I can only give it so much time.

BTW, I'm always open to PR

Hello everyone,

Although it is a bit late for the next upcoming release, I think that it would be worth to include native audio out and midi in drivers for Android in the official source repository. Afterall we are talking about the most used mobile operating system of the world. I know that there are some forks of the repository with some tries for adding this type of support but having that officially supported would be a nice feature in my opinion.

Just keep this as a possible addition to be implemented/included one day in the future.

Sincerely.
