title: Targeting Android with Scala 2.8 Trunk builds
body: <p>The definitive reference for using Scala on android seems to be here: <a href="http://www.scala-lang.org/node/160" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.scala-lang.org/node/160</a></p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, all the references on using scala with android are based around Scala 2.7 and refer to a custom build android-library.jar, with a couple of cryptic references suggesting that this custom build isn't needed for later versions of android (I'm using 2.1 / API v7)</p>
  
  <p>So... What are the steps needed to use Scala 2.8 in an android project? Preferably using eclipse and the Android tools that Google supplies for that IDE.</p>
