Why thank you. I return the compliment.

Are you arguing that one cannot write Android code in C++?  One merely 
has to tolerate having load the C++ code with a jni Activity adapter 
and some jni event glue. Game over.

Yawn. Of course the platforms are different, that is why one would try 
to ensure that the bulk of the logic is in a common code base 
independent of the platform.

Naturally the portable  C++ code contains its own event dispatching and 
UI rendering (which is done with OpenGL in 2D mode). You can render 
precisely the same UI on IOS or Android and algorithmically adapt to a 
device's screen resolution.

You appear not to know that IOS native code is compiled with Clang 
which out of the box supports C, Obj-C and C++. In fact one can freely 
mix all three in the same source code module.  You obviously have no 
experience in this but feel compelled to voice your ignorance 
regardless. Oh well.

Oh I see. Let's suppose that one of the jobs of your application is to 
process 44.1kHz audio data from multiple  concurrent audio sources 
(tracks) and perform some transformation on the data (like a 
convolution, delay or filter), and then pass the audio to the sound 
driver.  You will also need to render a UI with stuff like real time VU 
meters  and keep up with the video refresh rate.

I sure as hell don't want to be doing that in Java on a relatively 
piss-weak ARM CPU 'cuz you're going to hear lots of clicks and pops and 
stuttering.
