Note further that the philosophy of UCI is to dump workload onto the GUI (in this case Polyglot), while WB protocol tends to dump it on the engine (in this case Polyglot). So by using Polyglot, you have the best of both worlds! Cool


Well, it doesn't count, because we're talking about the android plattform and not a x86 computer. So, basicly the environment is completly different and you can't compare them.

Just for example, we're talking about a Java UI which runs in a special VM - Called Dalvik. There are importent system states, which only send to the App (in our case the chess GUI). So, basicly we need a protocol where the UI is the master.
Even if wb could handle this, you planing to run a C based adapter on a Java environment ? Well, you could do a Java rewrite of course or support both protocols on your own way (like a Java adapter/controller).

Well, it's all a question of time and how many hours do you wanna spent on interface stuff. If we're looking deeper and using modern design pattern, classical view - model - controller, it makes no sense to write the same stuff two times (based on your adapter idea).
