Two important questions:

i) Do you have the source?

ii) Does it use any system calls whatsoever, or is it completely standalone?

Hi MarkMLl

1)- I don't have the dll source code

2)- I can deal with the dll via exported functions

Hi,
The variables used in functions and methods and how they are read and written vary according to the operating system.
As far as I know, there is no magic method to convert directly.
But if you have the source code or you can write it yourself;
Video prepared by me, showing how to do the conversion, more precisely how the shared object file (so file) is prepared and how to use it in android studio;
