[2012-12-08 06:13:28 - SDK Manager] Done loading packages.
then i tried to make new Gridlayout on my XML layout but eclipse eclipse doesn’t recognize this layout.
- has the gridlayout installed?
- if yes how could i use it
- if i could use it, when i will install the apk on my phone(2.2) have i installed the library on my phone too? of it is moved with apk?
Edit
this is what i got when i open the SDK manager , i am from Syria so is that because Google forbidden its products to syrian?

Set it up as dependency of the project you’re working on. After that, you’ll need to make sure you point any references throughout your project to this one, and not the level 15 version, in order to support pre-ICS devices. Usage should be similar, if not identical.
