Determine target API

Is there a way for an Android app to determine its target API level? (Particularly in the case of a JAR library, which cannot influence which apps it is embedded in, while app developers may not be able to change the code of the JAR.)

Solution

  • For a given context, call:

    context.getApplicationInfo().targetSdkVersion

    Same for minSdkVersion, which will give you the minimum SDK version.
