How does one retrieve the version info of an Android library programmatically?
I've written an application where I put some of the logic in a library. In my help-about box, I'd like to show the version number of the actual app, and the underlying library it is using.
This post indicates that it is not possible as the library manifest info is lost upon compilation. However, the post (towards the end) also hints at the idea that it might soon become possible (post is from 2010).
