Unity 4.5 Android AAR Support

    does Unity 4.5 support AAR libraries? or any of the patch releases? I want separated resources, and most threads say converting to jar, which is not what I am looking for. currently I have all the resources setup in Unity but I want to reuse android code/res on another Unity project and rather trying to merge android library changes back and forth, I am looking into making AAR library to make things simpler.
    I am looking into Android Studio but doesn't have much documentation on Unity.
    thanks.

    Not yet. However this is something we would like to add in the future. That said, perhaps you could create a script that automatically unpacks the AAR library into a subfolder of Assets/Plugins/Android. That should work™. If you also have class dependencies you may have to copy classes.jar into either libs or the bin directory of your newly unpacked library project.

    I can check that Unity5 supports AAR.

    Is there any plan for Unity4.x supports AAR?

    Thanks.
