Hey guys.

Could there be any problems using external libraries that are not part of the original SDK?

Hello,

hard to guess before giving it a try.

If you can get your code to compile using them, I'd be interested to see the results. You would also need to add them into your .apk file so the application can reference the libraries at run-time. The libraries would most likely have to be modified to use Android's version of Java, I doubt you could just copy n paste your regular java libs.

What sort of additional libraries were you looking at including?

I was looking for ways to implement web services and I found this post about kSOAP.
I was actually interested in XML-RPC.
So I was wondering how would that work on Android and what do I need to take into consideration when I'm looking to include a lib.

Hey guys.

Thanks for your replies and guidelines.
I researched this topic a little further and finally made a tutorial to summarize it all.
