There is no packaging difference between developing for a platform or an add-on.
The only difference is that the custom task "setup" will resolve the target property from default.properties, see that it's an add-on, look up the list of additional library provided by the add-on and set up a the class path to contain android.jar from the base platform and the libraries from the add-on (maps.jar in your case). This allows you to use the new API in your application. Look at SDK/platforms/android-1.6/template/android_rules.xml in the "compile" target. The interesting attribute is bootclasspathref="android.target.classpath" You can look at the custom Ant task code to see how it's setup. It starts at line 164: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/development.git;a=blob;f=tools/anttasks/src/com/android/ant/SetupTask.java;h=04afba7c5456465af52a61e8c92b47f435213f45;hb=donut#l164 Xav On Thu, Oct 8, 2009 at 9:08 AM, Raja Nagendra Kumar < [email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Fred, > > Thank you for the pointers, could you pl. explain more on where > exactly is the difference in compiling and building the application > for Target 2 and Target 3. > > I understand Target 3 has maps.jar add on as booth path and for target > 2 one needs to add the maps.jar as class path (i.e as external > library) in case the application is using maps.
