I hate Java. ... It could run on several Os but painfully slow. C++ is better.
Ah but: Libraries written inC includethe surface manager, OpenCore [21] media framework, SQLite relational database management system, OpenGL ES 2.0 3D graphics API, WebKit layout engine, SGL graphics engine, SSL, and Bionic libc. The Android operating system consistsof 12 million lines of code including 3 million lines of XML, 2.8 million lines of C, 2.1 million lines of Java, and 1.75 million lines of C++. [22]
