Actually I want to know that if in my application’s libs folder, any library file(e.g .jar file) is present, then after installing(running) that application, will library file present in .apk file?
According to my understanding, library FILE should present in generated .apk file. If I am wrong then please correct me.
If my question is below standard, then extremely sorry for that. Any help will be well appreciated
With recent versions of the Android tools, .jar files in the libs folder are automatically included in the build. (See Dealing with dependencies in Android projects.) So, yes, the library is included in the compiled bytecode (not as a separate file).
If you use ProGuard in a release build, then it will attempt to strip out any code which is not actually used. So, it may be that some parts of the library are included in the final .apk, and some parts are removed.
