Map of SDKName : SDKDescriptionTaskOption
Specifies the SDKs (Software Development Kits) used by the task.
SDKs represent development kits that are available in the build environment and to the task. They are used to find the necessary tools to perform the necessary operations.
You should specify the AndroidBuildTools and AndroidPlatform SDKs so the build tasks can find the relevant tools to perform their operations.
If you don't specify these SDKs, then the build tasks will attempt to locate them automatically. If they fail to do so, an exception is thrown.
You can use the saker.android.sdk.buildtools() and saker.android.sdk.platform() tasks to retrieve SDKs with specific versions.
The SDK names are compared in a case-insensitive way.
