I need to retrieve minSdkVersion from AndroidManifest.xml programmatically.
I need to enable a flag based on its value. Is there no way to do it?

You already asked this in your own thread, which I have responded to.

I release a tool to dumping all classes (includes disclosed and
undocumented) at Android device, maybe this tool can help you to check if
undocumented API was available at target Android version.
You can get my tool by URL below.

Oh, sorry, didn't see that the specific information you need is part of
what is available from stable APIs.

I should have taken a lot more time to both think about the problem and to
explain it. My apologies.
An app with targetSdk set to 4 should run on API 15, Android 4.0.3, and
hopefully beyond (or may not, although this should be very rare).
An app with targetSdk set to 15 most likely will run
The platform never looks at maxSdkVersion. The entire concept of
maxSdkVersion is broken as shown by what you are trying to do -- having
your apps suddenly not work when you get a platform update just because
they have declared a maxSdkVersion in their manifest is a horrible user
experience.
Fair enough. Looks like my little plan is dead in the water unless I try
something as daunting as what Kostya suggested.

This has been educational in more ways than one. Thanks.

I see that almost everything from an apps AndroidManifest.xml file get be
retrieved programmatically. What I do see is how to pull the apps min and
max API levels for the SDK as in:
uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion=15 /
uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion=7 /
Is it possible and can anyone
You can only easily get targetSdkVersion, from here:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/ApplicationInfo.html#targetSdkVersion
There generally isn't a reason to what minSdkVersion. (Or really
targetSdkVersion unless you are writing compatibility code within the
platform.)
I am not looking for the min sdk. I should have made that clear.
My intent is to write and app that pulls the targetSdkVersion from all of a
user's installed apps in order to present them with a clear picture of what
should and should not run on their device in the event that they update to
