The Bridge
is part of the elixir-desktop project and bridges all wxWidgets
calls that an Elixir application is making to
a connected tcp-connection. This allows externalizing platform UI on Android and iOS to the native widgets instead of porting wxWidgets
there.
The Bridge
will be pulled in automatically by mobile builds of the elixir-desktop
project. It uses a system environment variable BRIDGE_PORT
to know on which TCP-port the bridge server is listening.
To understand how this is working in practice, check the Android example app that implements a bridge server.
Work in progress
