Support for SDK version 11?

Just curious why sdk version 7 seems to be the highest supported by Processing for Android. If I drop version 11 into the version 7 folder things still seem to work, so is v11 actually supported?

The reason I ask is because I'm hitting texture memory limits when testing with the xoom and wanted to use the android:largeHeap="true" to get 256mb of memory instead of the default 48mb on the device. But this is only supported in v11 of the sdk.

Fwiw, I found a hack solution. On my Xoom I can hack the amount of memory the VM gives an app using the following commands (you need the Android SDK installed)

$ cd /tmp

$ adb pull /system/build.prop .

134 KB/s (2975 bytes in 0.021s)

$ mate build.prop << open build.prop in textmate or your favorite editor

[edit the dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit property, i set mine to 200]

$ adb root

restarting adbd as root

$ adb remount

remount succeeded

$ adb push build.prop /system

247 KB/s (2976 bytes in 0.011s)
