Referencing a library project in Android

Question

If I decided to use a library project in mine I still have to keep this library project in my workspace. Is there a way to avoid this? Also, does it mean I have to deliver an addition folder of library project with a folder of mine?

Answer 1

Library projects works like a charm, but of course you need to keep them open in the workspace as everytime eclipse builds your project it needs to access all the stuff from the library project.

If you don't want to keep this project open AND you don't plan to change it a lot AND it's not an Android project, it's a JAVA commom project you can build it once and instead of using a library project reference a JAR in your android project
