Compilable for older Android versions? #2

Open nakohdo opened 11 years ago

Is the application also compilable for older Android versions (e.g. 2.3)?

headrevision commented 11 years ago

Short answer: No, it isn't.

Long answer: I decided to use the most recent UI features of Android. Among those is the ActionBar, which was first introduced in 3.0. It is possible to use the support library (http://developer.android.com/tools/support-library/index.html) or ActionBarSherlock (http://actionbarsherlock.com/) in order to make the UI backward-compatible with 2.3. However, I haven't done that because I thought it wasn't worth the effort (2.3 devices will disappear eventually).

Nonetheless, feel free to fork! :)

Thanks for the quick and thorough response. As I'm more interested in Behat than in Android I think I will refrain from forking ;-)
