My Java 1.6 version of rt.jar is 5MB and has around 17,000 classes, including its own copies of many of the java.* and other core packages found in the Android runtime. It would shock and amaze me if rt.jar actually *worked* on Android. > Is there a way to know what Android will accept, and what it won't? Definitively, up front? Not that I am aware of. Generally speaking, I have had better luck using source code (either directly in my Android project or as a JAR I compile myself with the same compiler as I am using for the Android code) than precompiled JARs. Precompiled JARs *can* work, but your kilometerage may vary. So, for example, the two classes you cite, and presumably their dependencies, are in GNU Classpath. Perhaps those would be a better fit for your needs. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training in Sweden -- http://www.sotrium.com/training.php --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
