Getting started with Android Library Projects. As a great software
developer, you learned early in your development career that
duplication of code was not a good idea. With development patterns
such as SOLID, developers are trained early that code duplication is
evil.

To help avoid code duplication, and allow parts of Android
applications to be reusable, the Android platform has recently
introduced library projects to add to your development arsenal to help
battle these issues. In this session, we will explore Android library
projects and the benefit they can provide to your application.


Jeff McWherter is the Director of Development at Gravity Works Design
and Development (www.GravityWorksDesign.com). Jeff graduated from
Michigan State University with a degree in Telecommunications, and has
thirteen years of professional experience in software development. He
is a founding member of the Greater Lansing Users for .NET (GLUG.net).

He enjoys profiling code, applying design patterns, finding obscure
namespaces, and long walks in the park. His lifelong interest in
programming began with a Home Computing Magazine in 1983, which
included an article about writing a game called Boa Alley in BASIC.
Jeff currently lives in a farming community near Lansing, MI. When he
is not in front of the computer he enjoys rock and ice climbing with
his smart and beautiful wife; which leads to his favorite activity of
all, road trips.
