Statically cataloging the utilized APIs sounds difficult. Or impossible, if reflection is used (as it sometimes has been for hidden APIs). Then there are native code issues, places where developers have resorted to underlying linuxisms to accomplish things that are poorly or intentionally unsupported by the platform, etc. In total, predicting if a given APK will fail on a given version (/build/device) sounds pretty hard. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
