Wine Makes its Way to Windows apps on Android




Android applications on Windows, is it true? Yes, you are not in dream. Now, it is
possible to see android application in your Windows phone with Wine. An update
given by the Alexandre Julliard, the developer of Wine, about the Wine programs
run on Android, at the 2013 Free and Open source Software Developers' European
Meeting. Wine is one of the most popular software that turns Windows apps and
software on Linux into an open source Android platform. Till now, the news for
Windows apps on Android is buzzing, but it is not yet declared when this news turn
into reality as “Wine for Android”. Hearing this news, Android developers are
also expecting huge business from Android application development as users
want to creativeness with Wine.

Being open source software, Wine enables to run Windows applications into UNIX
based operating systems. Additionally, Wine also allows Windows applications to
run on POSIX-compliant operating systems such as Mac OSX, Linux and BSD due
to its high compatibility layer. Wine works by its own ways by translating
Windows API calls into POSIX calls that result into better performance. It is also
best for combining Windows apps into desktop.
Till the time, two interesting projects
are carried by the Wine, i.e. Wine run
on     devices     with    ARM-based
processors and Wine adapted to run
Windows apps on Android platform.
Folks will find ARM-based chips in
the most of Android devices; however,
Intel is using its low-powered Atom
x86 processors in Android based
tablets and phone. Due to this reason,
now wine is trying to run on devices
with x86 chips to increase the potential user base.

                                            Wine also adds a software library,
                                            named as Winelib, which is best for
                                            porting Windows applications into
                                            Linux. It is also expected that
                                            running Android apps on Windows
                                            is handier with BlueStacks and
                                            WindowsAndroid that gives the
                                            best accessing command to the
                                            Play Store and in application
development. Right now, you will find Winulator that allows accessing Windows
games on Android platform. Although, Wine becomes the solution of all problems,
this will take huge time.

                         The performance of this development is quite terrified, but
                         Julliard recognized that such kind of problems emerge due
                         to the Android environment emulated, not because of the
                         software’s implementation from a stripped metal device.
                         Cross-platform apps are also developed by CodeWeavers,
                         which is Wine-based CrossOver commercial software
                         created for Apple OS X and Linux, receives great
popularity and success in the mobile market.
So, we are also hoping an interesting outcome for this development and expected
many more development in the future. Android Application Experts eagerly waited
for this new invention as they want to do professional android app development
for users, who adopt Wine for Android in future.
