    + +

    The Android {@sdkPlatformVersion} platform delivers an updated version of +the framework API. The Android {@sdkPlatformVersion} API +is assigned an integer identifier — +{@sdkPlatformApiLevel} — that is +stored in the system itself. This identifier, called the "API Level", allows the +system to correctly determine whether an application is compatible with +the system, prior to installing the application.

    + +

    To use APIs introduced in Android {@sdkPlatformVersion} in your +application, you need to set the proper value, "{@sdkPlatformApiLevel}", in the +android:minSdkVersion attributes of the <uses-sdk> +element in your application's manifest.

    + +

    For more information about how to use API Level, see the API Levels document.

    + + +

    API changes summary

    + +

    The sections below summarize the changes to the application framework and its APIs.

    + +

    App Installation on External Storage Media

    + +

    The Android platform now allows applications to request installation onto the +device's external storage media (such as the SD card), as an alternative to +installation onto the device's internal memory.

    + +

    Application developers can express the preferred installation location for +their applications by means of a new attribute of <manifest> +in the manifest file, +android:installLocation. The attribute supports three values: +"internalOnly", "preferExternal", and +"auto". At install time, the system checks the value of +android:installLocation and installs the application +.apk according to the preferred location, if possible. If the +application has requested external installation, the system installs it into a +private, encrypted partition in the external media. Once an application .apk is +installed externally, the system lets the user change the storage location of +the .apk and move it onto the device's internal memory if needed (and vice +versa), through Manage Applications in the user settings.

    + +

    By default, the system installs all applications onto the device's internal +memory, except for those that explicitly request external installation. This +means that the system will always install legacy applications onto internal +memory, since they do not have access to the +android:installLocation attribute. However, it is possible to +configure and compile a legacy application such that it is installed internally +on older versions of the platform and externally on Android 2.2 and later +platforms, if necessary.

    + +

    Note that requesting installation onto the device's external media is not +suitable for all applications, particularly because the external media may be +removable and unmounting/remounting may disrupt the user experience and system +settings.

    + +

    For more information about setting a preferred install location for your +application, including a discussion of what types of applications should and +should not request external installation, please read the App Install Location +document.

    + +

    Backup manager

    + +

    The platform now provides a generalized backup manager facility that +applications can use to backup and restore user data, to ensure that users can +maintain their data when switching devices or reinstalling the application. The +backup manager handles the work of transporting the application data to and from +the backup storage area in the cloud. The backup manager can store any type of +data, from arbitrary data to files, and manages backup and restore operations +in an atomic manner.

    + +

    Any application can use the backup manager to save and restore data. To do +so, the application instantiates a {@link android.app.backup.BackupManager} and +uses its methods to trigger a new backup or restore operation. The application +must also create a subclass of {@link android.app.backup.BackupAgent} and +implement its methods to handle calls from the backup manager to get data for +backup and provide data to restore +({@link android.app.backup.BackupAgent#onBackup(android.os.ParcelFileDescriptor, android.app.backup.BackupDataOutput, android.os.ParcelFileDescriptor) onBackup()} +and {@link android.app.backup.BackupAgent#onRestore(android.app.backup.BackupDataInput, int, android.os.ParcelFileDescriptor) onRestore()}). +A simple implementation of a BackupAgent useful for backing up preferences +and files is available by using {@link android.app.backup.BackupAgentHelper}. +For more information, see Data Backup.

    +

    The ADT Plugin now supports the use of library projects during +development, a capability that lets you store shared Android application +code and resources in a separate development project. You can then reference the +library project from other Android projects and, at build time, the tools +compile the shared code and resources as part of the dependent applications. +More information about this feature is available in the Developing +in Eclipse with ADT document.

    +

    If you are not developing in Eclipse, SDK Tools r6 provides the equivalent library +project support through the Ant build system.
