[android-developers] Re: Google Play Services adds nearly 10,000 methods!
The latest version and the Google Play Services (4.3) now adds about 2,500 more methods (since 4.2)!! (Adding Google Play Services to your project will add about 14,000 methods to your app) seems to be getting worse and worse!

This is happening also on Ubuntu 9.10. The work-around fixes the issue for me too. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
