I'm not sure what the options are, which is the basis of my question. I have some code that is general (geometry calculations, Android UI helpers, ... etc). I would like to have multiple applications have access to the same code. I don't need this done at runtime, but I do know that is an option. I would like to start with sharing the source and then move to sharing the compiled code (.class?). I don't know how to set up the project to do this. I guessed by creating a new Java Project and leaving off the Activity, which worked as far as the Eclipse environment was concerned (no warnings, errors, etc), but when it runs, it's ugly and unhelpful as to what's wrong. Even debugging doesn't help.
I assume there's a model here for sharing code. Source sharing, compiled code sharing, runtime sharing, ... I simply don't know what the options are for sharing.
