<dt>description:</dt>
<dd>Specifies a shared library that the application must be linked against. 
This element tells the system to include the library's code in the class 
loader for the package.

<p>
All of the {@code android} packages (such as {@link android.app}, 
{@link android.content}, {@link android.view}, and {@link android.widget}) 
are in the default library that all applications are automatically linked 
against.  However, some packages (such as {@code maps} and {@code awt} are 
in separate libraries that are not automatically linked.  Consult the 
documentation for the packages you're using to determine which library 
contains the package code.
