Another approach would be to package the extract functionality as
different activities and services, in a completely new APK. Users
would install the "lite" free version and then when they want more
features they can pay and install the extra package.
Using the PackageManager or via Intents you
Maybe you can build your app using Maven or Ant? I think it should be
possible to configure building both a free app and a paid app based on
the same source. Even package renaming and all that can be handled.

For what it is worth, the 1.5 SDK does move the R.java out into a
different directory (myProject/gen/com.needle.noo), which may solve
one of your problems.
But I don't see how you'd get round having the package name in all the
source files (or, at least, in all the activities & so on) without

I'd love to hear if anyone has an elegant solution for this. Mine is
very ugly:
I have one manifest file for my full version and one of

Yuck. I was afraid that would be the answer. I don't know what Sun
was thinking when they decided to have no pre-processor for Java.

Yes, I'll probably do it that way if I can't find another way.
Problem is that I also want to remove a lot of code from a case()
statement, remove a lot of functions that won't be called, and remove
a lot of resources. Are we sure that the Java compiler will actually
remove the dead code?

We actually maintain two separate codebases for our pro and light
products, and take care to port common changes across from one to the
other. They need different package names in the manifest file, in the
layout xml when we refer to custom controls, in the package
declaration at the top of each s
But isn't the real problem that you would need a totally different
package name to upload it to the Android Market?

You can use if-else constructs, as the compiler will leave out any
never reached peaces of code.
Define a var to check against:
public static final boolean FREE_VERSION = false;
and when you want to check:
if (FREE_VERSION) {
// This code won't end up in the final binary
} else {
// Only thi
