[android-developers] Re: How to use the static fragment library in legacy apps?

I don't understand why Google doesn't provide a good and easy-to-use
example... kind of Plug&Play.

I have tried the API Demos example that Google provides and it just
gives a bunch of compilation errors.

At the end I have had to waste my time creating a new project to make
it work. Just adding the Fragment*Support java files didn't work,
because some of them make use of other files like
CheckableFrameLayout.java or SendResult.java.

I think it's not a good experience for developers who try to learn
some new features if they need to fix the example first.

Please, take this as a constructive note. :)

Btw, for anyone with the same problems, I have get it working on
phones running Android >2.2, if anyone is interested:
