Also as of 2.2 aapt will automatically include the appropriate minimum version for new configurations, so that older platforms do not see them. Though I notice that it uses -v4 for a resource that has ANY density specified, so if you don't have default resources for images you may break on 1.5. That is, you'd want drawable/, drawable-hdpi/, etc; and aapt will turn this in to drawable/ and drawable-hdpi-v4/ for you. If you have drawable-mdpi/ and drawable-hdpi/ you will end up with drawable-mdpi-v4/ and drawable-hdpi-v4, neither of which v3 (1.5) can accept. I should probably leave -mdpi as not having a version config... I think 1.5 can still handle those, though I'll have to check. (Note aapt also adds -v4 for -normal, -large, -small, -long, and -notlong; and -v8 for -car, -desk, -night, and -notnight.) -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.
