Is there an API to determine the phone's version of Android? For now,
I'm using try-catch. Sucky but works.
Also, my 2.0 built APK does not run on my G1 phone. Maybe it's
something I've done but I haven't dug into it. Maybe that's what you
meant by "intelligent" class loading.... do you mean Class.forName()
or Class.loadClass() or whatever its called instead of import
blahblh;?
For now I'm having to reverse engineer the URI for 2.0 and use it so I
have files which build on 1.5 but run with 2.0.
Thanks!
