OK,
I've become interested in learning the basics of building an App for Androids.
I'm not interested in doing anything fancy at all, just getting an image on the screen.
I'm not very comfortable using Java, which may be needed anyways.
How does the Android NDK work?

Is there any way to have C++ handle things like drawing to the screen?

Any info would be helpful,

just looking at the basics, nothing particularly interactive yet.

Is there any tutorial on using something like the NDK with C, C++?

Thank you,

-Benjamin

0: Well I did hear they were dev'ing a C++ SDK for the Android a while back, I don't know if that went anywhere.
