Api level question

[EduardoElias]

Hi there,

I am writing an application that commonly can be compiled to be target to android 2.x and higher.

And most of the time users will only needs that.

But some users will attach an USB serial cable and for that I need to use android 3.1. From the standpoint of the user that is ok. But my concern is to block a whole lot of other users if I target 3.1

I could have 2 apps. However I am looking if there is some other solution before going to split on 2 apps.

is it possible? otherwise, in case I need to have 2 apps, for each platform target, is there any type of conditional compiling or something else to facilitate the source code maintenance? basically it is one sub calling to be removed.

Thanks

You can put all the USB code in a service and only start this service if Phone.SdkVersion >= 11.
