I am trying to run a C code on an Android tablet from my computer which has Ubuntu 12.04. But when I run the application on android the tablet is not getting detected.

Please help me as to what to do.

I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish. An android tablet doesn't natively run "a C code". Can you explain what you try to do, and how you suppose this should work? You can look into the Android NDK to incorporate code into an APK, but I don't think this is wat you are looking for. – Nanne Jan 23 at 8:58

This is important information: please add it to your question (so add what you try to do, EXACTLY how you try to do it, and the exact error you get.) – Nanne Jan 24 at 8:13
@Nanne thnx but i resolved it. – Neha Sharad Umachigi Jan 24 at 9:13
It would be really helpful if you did add some information to the question, and answered it yourself. It helps future googlers/AU-ers, and will give you some more reputation here as well. – Nanne Jan 24 at 9:19

You could do this with adb.

adb is run from the terminal, and allows you to run shell commands on the phone. You could write C code which executes adb via system().

It might be easier to just write a shell script.

My system which has Ubuntu 12.04 on it, even though it was detecting a Tablet PC via usb cable but it was unable to run my application on it since usb driver was not set properly. When i changed the .rules from /etc/udev/rules.d its working well now. I did the following update in the 70-persistent-cd.rules SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev". – Neha Sharad Umachigi Jan 24 at 10:43
After doing this close the file and restart the service as follow sudo service udev restart – Neha Sharad Umachigi Jan 24 at 10:49
