How can I use newlib with android NDK?

Issue

Can I use newlib or newlib-nano with android NDK to build a dynamic library? I know this is not a to-the-point question. But couldn't find much write-up on this. Any help is appreciated. I'm a newbie to android.

Solution

Android uses bionic, not newlib. The C runtime is already loaded as part of the zygote in any app so this is not optional.
