随着Android NDK r5的发布，开发者现在可以完全使用C++编写游戏，无需任何Java代码。这一变化要求目标设备至少运行Android 2.3 Gingerbread。此外，更新的NDK还提供了对STLport的支持，使依赖于标准模板库的应用更易于移植到Android平台。这些改进包括对RTTI、C++异常等特性的支持，以及增强的调试工具。

Nice to see a prediction of mine come true! I suspect that Google has realized that games written in Java do not quite match up to the best games written in C/C++ or Objective-C. There's no doubt that for many types of application Java can match C/C++ for speed but not with high performance games.

Past versions of the NDK have added support for OpenGL ES, debugging capabilities, multiple ABI support, and access to bitmaps in native code. This one now adds access to a native sound buffer and the ability to write directly to window surfaces.

On the Android developer's blog they've announced that with NDK r5, it will be possible to write an entire game in C++ without a single line of Java. The only snag is that it has to be for Gingerbread (Android 2.3 or later) so don't go and buy an Android phone now unless it is definitely 2.3. (Corrected- I had this as 3.0 earlier!)

This version of the NDK also comes with a pre-built version of STLport, making it easier to bring STL-reliant applications to Android. It also adds backwards-compatible support for RTTI, C++ exceptions, wchar_t, and includes improved debugging tools.
