Posted by admin on March 28th, 2012
The answer is ” Android Emulator Faster, More Capable “. Mike James wrote an article title: ” Android Emulator Faster, More Capable ” on http://www.i-programmer.info . It is good read. Mike wrote ” Support for x86 should get better as the facilities settle down from experimental to production. If you do install the x86 emulator then the result runs at close to native speeds – i.e. the sort of response times you would get from running Android on an x86 architecture. This is not surprising as this is exactly what you are doing – only the peripheral hardware is being fully emulated. What this means is that if a consumer version of the emulator can be produced then there is no barrier to running Android apps under Windows, Linux or OSX. Having the emulator prove itself within the SDK seems like a really good way of making sure that it works properly”

Posted by admin on March 17th, 2012
Quick note to point out that I added a few days ago the last modified date and time of files and directories in the web based remote file browser in Meshcentral.com . Some have been asking for this feature since they deal with loads of log files and need to know which file is the latest one, etc. This change is supported in Mesh Agent v.1.55 which is not available on all platforms yet, but as I compile new platforms, this feature will get wider support. As of now, Windows, Linux x86 and MIPS are version 1.55. I will try to compile Mac OS X today along with others this next week. In other news, most of my time has been spent working on the back-end server. So much to do, each day the server works a lot better with improved diagnostics and features. Nothing that anyone else can use, but it’s far from the days where the server looked like a pile of lumber & duck-tape. Below, a screen shot of the remote file manager with the new date/time on the right. Ylian meshcentral.com
