Is it possible to create android apps with the help of tcc (tiny C compiler) ?
Normal ndk APK's looks simple zip to me.
There were only some signatures under /META-INF folder, dynamic *.so libraries under /lib, AndroidManifest.xml and resources.arsc.
├───lib
│ └───x86
│ └───gdbserver
│ └───libAndroid1.so
├───META-INF
│ └───CERT.RSA
│ └───CERT.SF
│ └───MANIFEST.MF
├───AndroidManifest.xml
├───resources.arsc
And also, it seems like gcc/clang compilers can be replaced by tcc. I got managed to compile an general *.so file with command:
tcc -r dllmain.c -o dllmain.o
tcc -shared dllmain.o -o dll.so
But now I'm NOT sure, how gonna I compile a full ndk project by replacing gcc/clang with tcc.
Here's my dead attempt:
C:\Users\gray\source\repos\Android1\Android1\Android1.NativeActivity>tcc -shared -r main.c -o libAndroid1.so -IC:\Microsoft\AndroidNDK\android-ndk-r15c\platforms\android-19\arch-x86\usr\include\
tcc: warning: -r: overriding compiler action already specified

And also, I renamed main.cpp to main.c to make it work with tcc.
