I checked it out.  An Android app is written in java.
you can include  C++ code by using the java native interface.
The C++ stuff is compiled into a shared library which
is loaded by the java code.

This is all done using the NDK (native development kit)
and for the java side on linux the SDK optionally combined with eclipse
which does all the boiler plate.

Most of the work is setting up eclipse to do all the right stuff.
