- Java 1.6 or higher is required for ADT 21.0.1. +
- Eclipse Helios (Version 3.6.2) or higher is required for ADT 21.0.1. +

- Build
+
-
+
- Updated build to detect and handle package name conflicts between an application and + the libraries it depends on. Libraries cannot share package names unless all of them + share the same package name. + (Issue 40152, + Issue 40273) + +
- Added a flag to disable dex merging to deal with cases where merging could generate + a broken dex file. If this happens to your project, add the following setting to your + {@code project.properties} file: {@code dex.disable.merger=true} This setting + causes the build system to revert to the older, slower dex processing that does not + pre-dex libraries. +

ADT 21.0.0 (November 2012)
SDK Tools, Revision 21.0.1 (December 2012)
+
+
+
+-
+
- Dependencies: +
-
+
-
+
- Android SDK Platform-tools revision 16 or later. +
- If you are developing in Eclipse with ADT, note that the SDK Tools r21.0.1 is + designed for use with ADT 21.0.1 and later. If you haven't already, update your + ADT Plugin to 21.0.0. +
- If you are developing outside Eclipse, you must have + Apache Ant 1.8 or later. +

- Updated build to detect and handle package name conflicts between an application and + the libraries it depends on. Libraries cannot share package names unless all of them + share the same package name. + (Issue 40152, + Issue 40273) + +
- Added a flag to disable dex merging to deal with cases where merging could generate + a broken dex file.

+
+ - Renderscript
+
-
+
- Added support for + Filterscript + compilation. +
- Added new project setting to control the Renderscript compilation target separately
+ from an Android project. Adding the following line to a {@code project.properties}
+ file causes Renderscript code to be compiled for Android API Level 17, while the
+ containing application can target a different (lower) API level:
+
renderscript.target = 17
+ Previously, the Renderscript compilation target was tied to the + {@code android:minSdkVersion} setting in the manifest. + (Issue 40487) +
