Tor Android seems to be the best method for starting Tor on Android that I could find. But this will not be compatible with Java.
If there are any suggestions that will work for both Java and Android, they will be appreciated.
Of course if the unification will not work,we should proceed with maintaining bisq2-android as a fork.
Hi @niyid thanks for creating this proposal.
Have you have a look at the proposal guidelines: https://bisq.wiki/Proposals ?
I am not understanding what you are proposing.
I am also not sure what you are looking to seek consensus on.
@pazza83
Apologies if you find it difficult to understand the thrust of this proposal.
@niyid I think you should just continue as a fork. The current devs do not have the resources to support this work at the current state. Also the proposal area is not the right place for such discussions.
Closing due to lack of discussion
I suppose there is an alternative pathway to building for Android?
It is my opinion that this is the right first step to prepare for an Android app.
Without the protocol being the same for all devices (PC/Mobile/Handheld), it will be impossible to build for other devices.
I had to make changes to several sub-projects (
common
,tor
andpersistence
) to the original Java project for a successful Android build.Currently all the other issues are resolved and should work as well for Java, except for item 2 - the matter of
java.lang.management.ManagementFactory
. The idea is to find a O/S neutral way to start tor (or any process) that works on Both Android and Java.Once this pending issue is resolved, there will be no need for code fragmentation where different versions of
common
,tor
andpersistence
are maintained for Java and Android. Rather a unified code will be maintained.Please find attached the issue list.
