Re: [android-developers] Enable android:hardwareAccelerated, but build against a target earlier than 3.0

That's the point of this attribute, just add android:hardwareAccelerated to your manifest.

On platforms < 3.0, it will be ignored, on platforms >= 3.0, it will tell the system to use the hardware-accelerated canvas implementation (that provides the same API than the software based one).

Just ensure that you test your application on a 3.0+ device, the hardware-accelerated canvas implementation doesn't support all the features of the software one.

I want to enable hardware acceleration for my android app, but I still
want to build against Android 2.1 (in order to make sure I don't
accidentally rely on APIs introduced in 3.0, for example). Is there
anyway to turn on a feature and still build against a version before
it was introduced? I know I can use reflection in code to check for
say, an API added after my build target, but I'm not sure if I can do
something similar for android:hardwareAccelerated.
