Android 1.5 compatibility #79

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Since r2431 compatibility with Android 1.6 is broken. Android documentation 
suggests to use:
uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="4"

Can you provide the source url of that suggestion. So far I was told that 
minSdkVersion="4" is correct for the Android 1.6

Sorry, it whas typo. minSdkVersion="4" specifies minimal target as android 1.6 
and break compatibility with 1.5.

So your problem is with the Android 1.5 compatibility, is it?

Yes. So, with r2443 was added new Level 4 manifest attributes, then you do not 
want support 1.5 (Level 3) SDK?

Changed the summary because we are talking about the 1.5 version

I intentionally dropped the 1.5 compatibility, during the past months I 
experienced several problems with maintaining support for 1.5. From the Android 
stats of November 1, 2010 version 1.5 is used on 7,9% devices and that value 
will be dropping:

You still can have local modification that removes minSdkVersion="4"
