It depends on whether the library references any Android specific API.

HttpServer will not be compatible because of a tiny issue with the temporary folder. I can easily update it. However I have bigger plans

I want to add a "server profile" to B4J, much more powerful than HttpServer library which was built to run on the device.

Hi Erel,

Interesting ... But what do you exactly mean with "server profile" ?

The idea is to allow writing web servers with B4J.

Click to expand...

Would this be strictly HTTP? For example sort of like a Node.js sort of concept?

If so maybe call it something less generic e.g. "HTTPd profile" or something?

Yes, I was referring to a web server (http server).

You can already create a "sockets" server if you like.
