Android question: how to connect to swank, running on android?

[Daniel Kochmański]

Hah, that would explain why it has worked for me. In jni driver on 
ecl-android I've dup'ed stdin. See file 
jni/org_lisp_ecl_EmbeddedCommonLisp.c:63

         LOGI("Redirecting I/O\n");

         snprintf(tmp, 2048, "%s/ecl_output", lisp_dir);
         mkfifo(tmp, 0664);
         /* mode is O_RDWR to prevent blocking. Linux-specific. */
         fd = open(tmp, O_RDWR | O_NONBLOCK);
         dup2(fd, 1);
         dup2(fd, 2);
         close(fd);

         snprintf(tmp, 2048, "%s/ecl_input", lisp_dir);
         mkfifo(tmp, 0664);
         fd = open(tmp, O_RDONLY | O_NONBLOCK);
         dup2(fd, 0);
         close(fd);

So stdin had a valid value.

Best regards,

Daniel
