java - Using serviceloader on android

Question

I am very new to java and android development and to learn I am trying to start with an application to gather statistics and information like munin does. I am trying to be able to load "plugins" in my application. These plugins are already in the application but I don't want to have to invoke them all separately, but be able to iterate over them. I was trying to use serviceloader but could never get the META-INF/services into my apk. So I am wondering if it is possible to use serviceloader on android Thanks
EDIT: I am asking about java.util.ServiceLoader, I think it should, but I can't figure out how to get my services folder into META-INF on the apk
