[android-developers] Re: NativeActivity over another Activity?

Internet timed out, sorry if this double-posts. I have that document
and code examples already (they are what my project is based on).
However they deal almost exclusively with the native code, and do not
even talk about graphics, native or otherwise. The one example that
even has a Java component merely passes input through JNI, nothing
about setting the content view of the NativeActivity, which is what my
question here is about. Know of anythe examples somewhere on how to
do that?
