I want to use DTLS (on OpenSSL) using JNI on Android 2.1/2.2.

Can someone help me get started (tutorials, howto, pointers etc) with building OpenSSL for Android (2.1/2.2) using the Android NDK?

Anything important that I should be aware of before doing it.

Thanks.

I guess you don't need help with basic building of programs and OpenSSL.

For specifics of Android and OpenSSL, take a look at Fries's GitHub repository called android-external-openssl.

Take a look especially at README located here: http://github.com/fries/android-external-openssl/blob/master/README.android

There you have step by step instructions on how to build OpenSSL on Android.
