Inside the Android OS

Building, Customizing, Managing and Operating Android System Services

Beschreibung

Inside the Android OS is the first comprehensive guide and reference for developers who want to customise and integrate Android into their own embedded devices. Replete with code examples, it encourages you to create your own working code versions as you read -- whether for your own personal insight or for a workplace project in the fast-growing marketplace for non-phone Android devices. G. Blake Meike responds to the real-world needs of embedded and IoT developers moving to Android, providing indispensable information without becoming obscure or too specialised. Meike teaches through a book-length project that covers everything developers need to know to create their own custom Android service. You will find approachable yet precise coverage of: * Why Android is becoming a pervasive embedded platform * Using the Android four-tier architectural model in embedded devices * Setting up a build platform, downloading the AOSP source, and building an Android image * Walking through system startup on a running Android system * Running native services on embedded systems * Using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK) and HAL to link interpreted Java with native C/C++ code * Taking a deep dive into the seminal Zygote application and its Dalvik interpreter * Quickly building Java system services * Working with Binder, the heart and the root of the Android security and access control models * Establishing permissions and access control * Enabling apps to use the services you have created
