Stop exporting amain for android. #10875
Description
rustc exports amain when build library for android to provide an start point that initiate rust runtime.
Now we have start_on_main_thread exported publicaly, a rust library is able to provide an entry function without amain hack .
#[no_mangle]
pub extern fn entry(argc: int, argv: **u8) -> int {
do std::rt::start_on_main_thread(argc, argv) {
// do what you want.
}
}
Thus I don't think we need amain hack any longer.

Does this also mean that we could remove the logic of sometimes naming the entry point
mainand sometimesamain?ILyoan commentedon Dec 11, 2013
@alexcrichton Yes.
I don't think android libraries need an entry point to start runtime at all. we can remove all related code tagged as "FIXME #4404"
