If you wish to refer to things that only exist with API Level 11+, yes. and if i did that - it'll still be compatible with api-4??? Done carefully, yes. The build target merely controls what you compile against. You can have an API Level 4 build target and still have something that will not run on API Level 4 (e.g., you access newer stuff via reflection and screw it up), so it's not like the build target is some magic elixir for compatibility. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in NYC: http://marakana.com/training/android/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Make sure your build target is API Level 11 or higher.

[android-developers] Re: ICS - checkbox style
using your suggestion, added this to my android v1.6 project (from the above link) style name=LightThemeSelector parent=android:Theme.Holo.Light ... /style i'm getting a syntax error on the theme name. i'm thinking because the project is built for v1.6 and the Holo theme is for a later api. does this mean i have to build for api 11. i'm trying to get a v1.6 compatible project - but if it happens to be running on a api 11+ ...use the holo theme. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
