    Accessing RenderScript APIs

    -

    When developing an Android application that uses RenderScript, you can access its Java API in - one of two ways. The APIs are available in the {@link android.renderscript} package - on devices running Android 3.0 (API level 11) and higher. These are the original APIs for - RenderScript. The APIs are also available as a Support Library in the - {@link android.support.v8.renderscript} package, which allow you to use them on devices running - Android 2.2 (API level 8) and higher.

    We strongly recommend using the Support Library APIs for accessing RenderScript because they include the latest improvements to the RenderScript compute framework and provide a wider range - of device compatibility. Using the RenderScript APIs in the Support Library requires specific - setup procedures for your development environment, which is described in the next section.
