Android(安卓)Framework 基础

Android is a stack of software for mobiles that comprised of operating system, middle wares and various basic applications. The tools and APIs necessary are being provided by Android SDK to develop various applications on the platform of Android while using the Java language.

Features of Android: Application framework: with the help of AF components can be reused and replaced.Dalvik virtual machine (DVM)is used for devices like mobile.Integrated browsercreated on the basis ofWebKitengine.Optimized graphics,SQLite used to store structure data storage. InMedia supportwe can use multimedia files such video and audio and still images. The technology such as GSM Telephony is depends on hardware. Same in the case with Bluetooth & Edge & Wi-Fi, they all depend on hardware for their functionality. And again we can say that Camera, GPS & Compass and accelerometer is also depends on hardware for their respective functions. At last but one of the most important features is RDE: Rich Development Environment inclusive of device emulator and various tools used to debug memory and PP (performance profiling) and Eclipse IDE functions.

Libraries in Android includes set of key libraries which performs various function available in the libraries of Core Java Languages.

Android application manipulates its process with the help of the Dalvik-Virtual-Machine (DVM). To run multiple VMs perfectly Dalvik is written there. Minimum memory is being utilized by the Dalvik with the help of (.dex). The VM is based on register which runs classes composed by java language and that has been converted into .dex with the help of ‘dx’ tool.

The Dalvik VM depends upon the Linux kernel for backdrop functionalities like threading and memory organization.

Applications of Android
