I have a fully-functional Java program that’s fairly long, and I want to transfer it to an Android tablet. It’s my first time doing anything for the Android. I know that it requires a different type of Java (or whatever the fancy lingo for that is), but I reeeeeaaallllly don’t want to rewrite this WHOLE thing. Are there any easy swaps or equivalent thingies to import for my Android app? Here are the imports I have in the current program:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.geom.*;
import java.awt.color.*;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.text.*;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
Any other tips or links regarding the matter would be appreciated.
You aren’t going to able to port your application without some serious rewriting.
From that list, Android does not have anything from:
Any of your code that uses those will have to change dramatically.
The most significant issue is that Android has its own activity/view system instead of Swing/AWT, so you will have to redo your entire user interface from scratch.
