<p>The Android Support Library package is a set of code libraries that provide
  backward-compatible versions of Android framework APIs as well as features that are only available
  through the library APIs. Each Support Library is backward-compatible to a specific Android API
  level. This design means that your applications can use the libraries' features and still be
  compatible with devices running Android 1.6 (API level 4) and up.</p>

<p>This guide provides information about what features are enabled by the Support Libraries,
  how to use them in your development environment and information about library releases.</p>


<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>

<p>Including the Support Libraries in your Android project is considered a best practice for
  application developers, depending on the range of platform versions your app is targeting
  and the APIs that it uses. Using the features the libraries provide can help you improve the look
  of your application, increase performance and broaden the reach of your application to more users.
  If you use the Android
  <a href="{@docRoot}tools/projects/templates.html">code template</a> tools, you will notice that
  all the Android application templates include one or more of the Support Libraries by default.</p>

<p>The Support Libraries each target a base Android API level and each provides a different set
  of features. In order to effectively use the libraries, it is important to consider what features
  you want to support and understand what features are supported by each library at what Android
  API level. To get started, review the
  <a href="{@docRoot}tools/support-library/features.html">Support Library Features</a> guide.
  After that, go to the
  <a href="{@docRoot}tools/support-library/setup.html">Support Library Setup</a> topic to
  learn how to incorporate the Support Libraries into your application. For more details
  about Support Library APIs, see the {@link android.support.v4.app android.support}
  packages in the API reference.</p>

          <li>Added a <code>MediaButtonReceiver</code> class to forward received playback controls
            to a service that’s managing the <code>MediaSessionCompat</code> class. The
            <code>MediaSessionCompat</code> class has a
            constructor that can automatically find a media button receiver in the manifest. A
            media button receiver is a key part to <a href=

          customizations:</li>
           <ul>
           <li>Change animations no longer enforce two copies of the <code>ViewHolder</code> object,
            which enables item content animations. Also, the <code>ItemAnimator</code> object
            decides whether it wants to reuse the same <code>ViewHolder</code> object or create a
            new one.</li>
           <li>The new information record API gives the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class the flexibility
            to collect data at the correct point in the layout lifecycle. This information is later
            passed into the animate callbacks.</li>
            </ul>

          <ul>
          <li>Provided an easy transition plan for this backward-incompatible API change:</li>
           <ul>
           <li>If you’ve previously extended the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class, you can change
            your base class to <code>SimpleItemAnimator</code> and your code should work as before.
            The <code>SimpleItemAnimator</code> class provides the old API by wrapping the new API.</li>
           <li>Some methods were removed from the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class. The following
            code will no longer compile:</li>
           <pre>recyclerView.getItemAnimator().setSupportsChangeAnimations(false)</pre>
           <p>You can replace it with:</p>
           <pre>
ItemAnimator animator = recyclerView.getItemAnimator();

   ((SimpleItemAnimator) animator).setSupportsChangeAnimations(false);
}

            parallax scrolling of components such as an {@link android.widget.ImageView},

          <li>Added support in <code>ViewCompat</code> to check for and set overscroll
          modes for {@link android.view.View}s on Android 2.3 and later.</li>
          <li>Changes to Fragment APIs:
            <ul>
              <li>Added new APIs to control the visibility of new menus.</li>
              <li>Added custom animation APIs.</li>
              <li>Added APIs in <code>FragmentActivity</code> to retain custom,
              non-configuration instance data.</li>
              <li>Various bug fixes.</li>
            </ul>
          </li>

          <li>Fixed a {@link android.content.Loader} bug that caused issues in
          canceling {@link android.os.AsyncTask}s when running on Froyo and older
          versions of the platform. The support
          code now uses its own version of {@link android.os.AsyncTask} to keep the same
          behavior on all platform versions.</li>

      <dt>Changes for v4 support library:</dt>
      <dd>
        <ul>
          <li>Adds support for {@link android.app.Fragment.SavedState}</li>
          <li>Adds {@code MotionEventCompat} to support newer {@link
android.view.MotionEvent} APIs</li>
          <li>Adds {@code VelocityTrackerCompat} to support a newer {@link
android.view.VelocityTracker} APIs</li>
          <li>Adds {@code ViewConfigurationCompat} to support a newer {@link
android.view.ViewConfiguration} APIs</li>
          <li>All new APIs (available only in the support library) that allow you to create UIs
with horizontal paging, allowing users to swipe left and right between content views. Classes to
support this include:
            <ul>
              <li>{@code ViewPager}: A {@link android.view.ViewGroup} that manages the
layout for the child views, which the user can swipe between.</li>
              <li>{@code PagerAdapter}: An adapter that populates the {@code ViewPager} with the
views that represent each page.</li>
              <li>{@code FragmentPagerAdapter}: An extension of {@code PagerAdapter} for flipping
between fragments.</li>
              <li>{@code FragmentStatePagerAdapter}: An extension of {@code PagerAdapter} for
flipping between fragments that uses the library's support for {@link
android.app.Fragment.SavedState}.</li>
            </ul>
          </li>
        </ul>
      </dd>
      <dt>New v13 support library:</dt>
      <dd>
        <ul>
          <li>Includes the {@code FragmentPagerAdapter} and {@code FragmentStatePagerAdapter}
to support the horizontal paging.
          <p>These are exactly the same as the APIs added to the v4 support library, but rely on
other platform components in Android 3.2. Use this library instead of v4 if you're developing for
Android 3.2 and higher (all other APIs in the v4 library are already available with API level
13).</p>
