This is a good opportunity to remind readers of the difference between the SDK and the open source release.
The SDK presents a set of APIs which is supported, documented, and most importantly, guarantees compatibility across a wide range of Android-based devices. The open source release are the tools to build and modify the Android platform itself, as well as many of the applications that we be a part of many Android devices. The class you're looking for, android.provider.Telephony, is a perfect example of the difference. Yes, as pointed out, you can find it in the open source release and use it to better understand the workings of the platform. No, it *does not* appear in the SDK, and this means you should not try to use it from your applications. If you look carefully at the .java file in the open source release, you'll notice that the class documentation includes the annotation @hide. This means it will not appear in the SDK, either as a class you can compile against, or Javadoc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
