Refal Android

This project demonstrates how an Android application can be built using the Refal programming language.

Project Structure

• ./rawdrawandroid: Project that allows building Android applications in C
• ./Refal-05-Standalone: Standalone distribution of the Refal-05 compiler
• ./refalrawdraw.c: Refal bindings for the rawdrawandroid API
• ./mvu.ref: Model-Update-View framework (Elm Architecture)
• ./main.ref: Main application logic written in Refal

Prerequisites

• Android SDK and NDK
• make
• adb (Android Debug Bridge)
• Connected Android device or emulator

Refer to rawdrawandroid for more detailed guide.

Development

Clone and initialize submodules:

git clone https://github.com/butvinm/Refal-Android
cd Refal-Android
git submodule update --init --recursive

Generate application keys:

make keystore

Build and upload the application to a connected device:

make push run

Inspect application logs:

# Clean logs
adb logcat -c

# Capture logs
adb logcat > logcat.log

# Grep linker errors
grep "librefal.so" logcat.log

Acknowledgments

This project would not be possible without Refal-05 and rawdrawandroid.
