Re: [andmore-dev] KXML2 IP Providence

Does layoutlib use KXML API directly or does it just use the XMLPullparser code?   We of course need the layoutlib otherwise the visual designer editor is unusable without it.

The main issue is that layoutlib requires KXML but doesn't package it (it's provided by the IDE), so if you were to remove it from ADT you wouldn't be able to render layout anymore.

Xavier, copying the andmore-dev mailing list on this was well.

Eclipse IP has reviewed the KXML2 code and in talking to the maintainers they have some concerns about IP Providence.   As I know this is used by some of SDK support libraries in AOSP, I was wondering if there is a possibility that we can swap in another XML Pull parser, or is the AOSP code tightly bundled with KXML2?
