OHOS: future proofing - HarmonyOS NEXT support #649

Open clang-clang-clang opened 9 months ago

clang-clang-clang commented 9 months ago

Solar2D may consider planning to support the "HarmonyOS NEXT" in case it cannot be built in the future.

At the time, outlets such as Huawei Central said that “Next” is “a pure version of the HarmonyOS operating system without Android libraries” and that it would replace existing versions of the platform.

Fortunately Solar2D is not dependent on Google’s libraries, only on open source android ones. I hope this will make it easier to port

clang-clang-clang commented 6 months ago

Updates.

Note that HarmonyOS will retain Android support internationally, this mostly affects the home market.

The beta version will be available in June 2024.

Any chance this could be merged to the main repo?

clang-clang-clang commented 2 months ago

Not sure it will be useful to Solar2D users without additional information, maybe we have to wait until after the June HDC 2024 release?

sekodev commented 2 months ago

Of course. I was asking for future releases, after the end of beta maybe?

clang-clang-clang commented 2 months ago

It seems to work.

clang-clang-clang commented 2 months ago

Seems the HarmonyOS development kit is now available.
