Acum posesorii de Android se pot bucura și ei

Chiar și cei care folosesc Android se pot bucura pentru că niște tineri au găsit soluția de portare a aplicațiilor de iOS pe Android folosind Cider. Cider este un fel de mașină virtuală cu ajutorul căreia poți instala aplicații pentru iOS direct pe telefonul tău Android. Senzația momentului.

Cider enhances the domestic operating system, Android, of a device with kernel-managed, per-thread personas to mimic the application binary interface of a foreign operating system, iOS, enabling it to run unmodified foreign binaries. This is accomplished using a novel combination of binary compatibility techniques including two new mechanisms: compile-time code adaptation, and diplomatic functions. Compile-time code adaptation enables existing unmodified foreign source code to be reused in the domestic kernel, reducing implementation effort required to support multiple binary interfaces for executing domestic and foreign applications. Diplomatic functions leverage per-thread personas, and allow foreign applications to use domestic libraries to access proprietary software and hardware interfaces. (sursă)
