Barebones is the first, most basic version of the Saul library in support of the Final Five effort. Barebones seeks out data from various Android API and Java calls and translates and stores returned metadata about the device, operating system, and user and stores the returned metadata in a Cylon object for later use. Barebones does translation to strip all Android specific data-types out of the metadata, and store everything as traditional alpha-numeric types. For contexts where Saul can not find certain data types, or the data does not exist, Saul will populate these fields with default values.

Marrow is a refined version of the Saul library in support of the Final Five Project. Marrow seeks out data from various Android and Java API calls and translates and stores the returned metadata into a unified, platform agnostic mapping that is utilized across all platforms covered by the Final Five Project. The retrieved data includes information about the hardware, operating system, and user, and is collected in the form of a C++ structure to be used by a consuming application. Marrow does translation to strip all Android specific data-types out of the collected information, and does additional conversion to convert the code from Java to C++ for use with native development efforts. For fields where Saul does not have permission to access certain information, or the data does not exist, Saul will populate these fields with default values.

NOTE: Native code requires Android NDK to be installed and working correctly.
