1 Introduction
Android is an operation system initially developed by Android Inc., which Google bought in 2005, Android was unveiled in 2007, along with the founding of the Open Handset Alliance — a consortium of hardware, software, and telecommunication companies devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices.
Android's kernel is based on one of the Linux kernel's long-term support (LTS) branches. Since April 2014, Android devices mainly use versions 3.4, 3.10 or 3.18 of the Linux kernel.
Android is far away from a Linux distribution by it does not include the GNU C Library (it uses Bionic as an alternative C library) and some of other components typically found in Linux distributions. Moreover it has a graphical and application stack built on Java VM which excludes initially writing any other program than on the Java language. But in the performance reason JNI uses here to link external native libraries written on C/C++ by a native development kit (NDK). But the LibC Bionic and the core libraries are mostly POSIX compatible. Due more lacks and more limitations into the original Android NDK there was used an user expanded one CrystaX NDK, but last stable version of CrystaX NDK based on NDK r10 and on the task time there allowed original version r13, where more lacks resolved but the native functions of locales still lack.
For developers Google provides Android software development kit (SDK). All projects written to build by Android Development Tools (ADT) and the IDE Eclipse allowed to the packages assemble from the command line and then can be automated, but new projects (see to the current samples) written on/for Android Studio can be built only from the environment and without the command line using. The sub-project implements and tests on Asus Nexus 7 II with the original Android 4.4.4 (Krait) then there uses Andoid-19 SDK version.
Before an action for same OpenSCADA adaption there were read some books, learned some links, created several examples and executed some tests, those are:
- Read books:
- "Android NDK Beginner's Guide — Second Edition", Sylvain Ratabouil;
- "Android Native Development Kit Cookbook", Feipeng Liu.
- Learned links:
- Built examples from the books, links and Qt5:
- By ADT into the command line or Eclipse IDE: "san-angeles" (sample), "Store", "DroidBlaster", "LiveCamera", "PortingExecutable", "PortingExecutableBuildSystem", PortingExecutableAUI
- By Android Studio: "native-activity" (sample), "Store"
- Qt5 examples: "analogclock", "calculator", "charactermap", "icons", "styles".
- Built and executed for tests of features of the system:
- arm_test.cpp — alignment tests of the ARM architecture;
- locale_test.cpp — time tests with a time zone or UTC;
- precision_test.cpp — tests for precision of the tasks scheduling (SCHED_RR) in realtime;
- printf.cpp — tests for performance of different locks: direct RW lock to RD and RW, RW lock wrapped to an object, direct mutex, mutex wrapped to an object.
- string.cpp — tests for some operations on STL string with exceptions processing.
- task_test.cpp — tests for threads.
Due the method of linking of native programs is the primarily and exclusively only through JNI by connecting a share library then all dependent code of the program must be placed and pre-loaded into shared libraries against the common one or builtin as the static parts to the common one. Placing and loading the dependent code as the shared libraries will cause to extra memory consumption but it's will exclusively the program's libraries. Then compiling the dependent libraries of the program as the static ones is a preferred way for Android!
2 OpenSCADA
To simplify and early preparing OpenSCADA to JNI in all its parts there is decided to build the program as a native executable and start it from the command-line. Then:
- To prepare a standalone toolchain for CrystaxNDK r10 there is used the command:
$ /home/roman/Android/Ndk/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-19 --install-dir=./TestTCH --system=linux-x86_64 --arch=arm --toolchain=arm-linux-androideabi-5
- To init the compiler and the linker there forms an environment preparing script with the SoftFloat and HardFloat flags:
#!/bin/bash TARGET=arm-linux-androideabi PROJECT=TestTCH PRJROOT=/home/roman/Android/$PROJECT #Soft float #export CFLAGS="-O2 -ffunction-sections -funwind-tables -no-canonical-prefixes\ # -march=armv5te -mfloat-abi=softfp -mfpu=neon -mthumb\ # -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -finline-limit=64 -Wa,--noexecstack -Wformat -Werror=format-security" #export LDFLAGS="-Wl,--fix-cortex-a8" #Hard float export CFLAGS="-O2 -ffunction-sections -funwind-tables -no-canonical-prefixes\ -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mhard-float\ -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -finline-limit=64 -Wa,--noexecstack -Wformat -Werror=format-security" export LDFLAGS="-llog -landroid -Wl,--no-warn-mismatch -lm_hard -Wl,--fix-cortex-a8" export CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fexceptions -frtti" PREFIX=$PRJROOT export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/sysroot/usr/lib/pkgconfig export PATH=$PREFIX/bin:$PATH #Extended for not autotool export CC=$TARGET-gcc export LD=$TARGET-ld export AS=$TARGET-as export AR=$TARGET-ar
- To init the compiler and the linker there forms an environment preparing script with the SoftFloat and HardFloat flags:
- To init the compiler directly into the CrystaxNDK r10 tree with the SoftFloat and HardFloat flags:

- Before same OpenSCADA compile we need compile:
- the PCRE library by the command:
$ ./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi --disable-cpp --enable-utf8 --enable-pcre16 --enable-unicode-properties
- the OpenSSL by the command:
$ ./Configure -DOPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS no-shared no-idea no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-zlib enable-tlsext no-ssl2 no-ssl3 os/compiler:arm-linux-androideabi- $ make depend; make
- the PCRE library by the command:
- Call and compile OpenSCADA configuration by the command:
$ ./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi --prefix=/data/data/org.oscada --bindir=/data/data/org.oscada/bin --sysconfdir=/data/data/org.oscada --datarootdir=/data/data/org.oscada CoreLibNmToDlOpen=liboscada.so --disable-CoreLibVersion --disable-AllModuls --enable-SQLite=incl --enable-DBF=incl --enable-Sockets=incl --enable-Serial=incl --enable-SSL --enable-SelfSystem=incl --enable-UserProtocol=incl --enable-HTTP=incl --enable-JavaLikeCalc=incl --enable-LogicLev=incl --enable-BlockCalc=incl --enable-System --enable-OPC_UA --enable-DAQGate=incl --enable-ModBus=incl --enable-DCON=incl --enable-FSArch=incl --enable-DBArch=incl --enable-VCAEngine --enable-WebCfg --enable-WebCfgD --enable-WebVision --enable-WebUser --enable-FLibSYS=incl --enable-SystemTests --enable-FLibMath --enable-FLibComplex1 --with-qt5=yes --enable-QtMainThrd --enable-QTStarter --enable-QTCfg --enable-Vision
- Copy files "openscada", "liboscada.so.3", "libcrystax.so", "spec_SystemTests.so", "oscada.xml", "icons/*.png" to "/data/data/openscada/".
- Start:
$ LD_PRELOAD=./libcrystax.so LD_LIBRARY_PATH="./:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}" ./openscada --config=./oscada.xml

In process of adaptation OpenSCADA to work on Android there was performed the significant approaches into the "autotool" based build environment OpenSCADA which can help further for adaption to work on other software platforms:
- Generic cleaning.
- Common adaption for static linking with the dependent libraries.
- The "pthread" library checking by a macro AX_PTHREAD but it's too different on the like kind software environments.
- Core libraries moved from direct pointing to checking, for: -lm, -ldl, -lcrypt, -lz, -lpcre. Which allow to pass libraries implemented into other system libraries and disable it at all in the correct way.
3 Qt5
Qt5 is cross-platform GUI toolkit and framework which historically used into OpenSCADA only as a GUI toolkit into Qt-based modules. Qt5 is a complex one and it has different problems on different versions and building options. For build examples of Qt5 next procedure was used.
$ /home/roman/Android/Ndk/sources/qt5/bin/qmake $ make $ make install INSTALL_ROOT=/home/roman/Android/Projects/icons $ /home/roman/Android/Ndk/sources/qt5/bin/androiddeployqt --output /home/roman/Android/Projects/icons $ ant clean; ant debug
Followed table represents problems of different version of Qt5 represented on an example "icons":
Version | Options | Problems |
5.7 | soft-float | Equal to versions 5.8 and 5.9 but have problems at installing where it tries install to "/var". |
5.8 | GCC 5 | Font is normal into bookmarks of the file dialog. May be it is generic problem into 5.7 5.8, (GCC 4.9), 5.9. |
5.7, 5.8, 5.9 | hard-float | All Qt icons miss or too small. |
5.9 | CrystaX NDK r10, GCC 5 | Build error by StdLib C++ some difference:
src/mbgl/util/http_header.cpp: In function 'mbgl::optional<std::chrono::time_point<std::chrono::_V2::system_clock, std::chrono::duration<long long int> > > mbgl::http::parseRetryHeaders(mbgl::optional<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char> >&, mbgl::optional<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char> >&)': src/mbgl/util/http_header.cpp:38:67: error: call of overloaded 'stoi(const std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>&)' is ambiguous auto secs = std::chrono::seconds(std::stoi(*retryAfter)); |
5.9.3 | NDK r13, GCC 4.9 (standard) | Crashes in calls QScrollArea::takeWidget(), fixed after in the builds 5.8.0, 5.9.7, 5.11.3 |
Up to 5.11.3 | NDK r13, GCC 4.9 (standard) | Does not propagate font from parent to QLineEdit and most widgets in dynamic, so the font must be set directly for dynamic widgets, and after that there can be problems yet. |

5 Appending B. List of the generic progress of the task
- (+) purchase a modern internet tablet with Android;
- (+) read a book about Android NDK, using of Android NDK and Crystalx-NDK;
- (+) compiling for tests, education and execution;
- (+) initially (minimum) build and execute OpenSCADA for console (without GUI): PCRE, OpenSCADA Core, builtin modules: Transport.Sockets, Protocol.SelfSystem, DAQ.JavaLikeCalc, Special.FLibMath;
- (+) make the performance tests for Soft and Hard float;
- (+) compile for all OpenSCADA key modules to include/builtin them into the core;
- (+) compile for needed external libraries: OpenSSL, SQLite, GD [expat,libpng,jpeg,fontconfig,freetype], intl, iconv;
- (+) rebuild all already built parts into the original Ndk (outward the standalone one);
- (+) build Qt5: in the default configuration, with the early built libraries;
- (+) initial build OpenSCADA with Qt5;
- (+) build and observe an example of Qt5 as a Java package (APK);
