One of the plugins that I am trying to incorporate requires me to add the below to the manifest

code
<meta-data android:name="com&#46;google&#46;android&#46;gms&#46;version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
/code

Where / how exactly in the androidmanifest.xml should the google play services be included?

thanks

M&M,

You can see it here https://developers.google.com/maps/do..., chapter "Add the Google Play services version to your app's manifest", but please note that this is outside the scope of our support

Ok thanks but can I know if play services has been added before by some successfully? Because when I try to add it in the manifest file, It throws an error when building the APK. Anyway let me try it couple of times more.

But I think something like being able to incorporate play services is very important for building rich and enhanced mobile Apps. So I believe something fundamental like this should not be considered to be outside the scope. I don't think in-depth support is needed or should be provided but just enough support to incorporate the service into the app :)

Thanks,
M&M
