I restarted my connectiq developments again (after getting myself a new watch) and wanted to start using barrels to make life easier. But most apps I have made now support just about all devices and of course this leads to issues with barrels NOT being supported by all of them. So my questions are: From what version onwards are barrels supported, is that 1.4.x? (And are they then supported by all devices from then on?) Is there a way to make one app, use barrels for those devices supporting them and use the sourcecode IN the barrels for example for the non-suppporting devices? Now I just have a 'common source' project and copy the .mc and other files I need, but using barrels would be helpful and nice. But if that would mean dropping support for devices, or maintaining 2 versions of the app... meh.

Use barrels for supported devices only, use it's sourcecode directly for others?

Yeah, my main desire is to easily maintain common code and include it in other projects... Adjusting the jungle file overriding the paths is perfectly fine for me.
