7<p class="note"><strong>Note: </strong>The Android <code>layoutopt</code> tool has been replaced by the {@code lint} tool beginning in ADT and SDK Tools revision 16. The {@code lint} tool reports UI layout performance issues in a similar way as <code>layoutopt</code>, and detects additional problems.</p>
8<p>For more information about using {@code lint}, see <a href="{@docRoot}tools/debugging/improving-w-lint.html">Improving Your Code with lint</a> and the <a  href="{@docRoot}tools/help/lint.html">lint reference documentation</a>.</p>
