**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Feb 09 02:59:58 2015 Feb 09 03:21:59 yiati: thnx solve Feb 09 03:22:13 yiati: i have solve the problem Feb 09 03:43:09 john67: cool what was the problem? Feb 09 04:05:40 How to figure out which child view was clicked in a parent's onClick or onItemClick handler? Feb 09 04:05:58 Got a ListView with multiple clickable regions Feb 09 04:07:47 Seems like setTag can be used to associate a random object with a view. Is it arbitrary? Feb 09 04:08:13 I can easily use the tag to tell the views what to do in their onClick handlers Feb 09 04:08:47 without plumbing back through the listview to the fragment etc. Navigating trees in code is evil. Feb 09 04:15:13 hmm, a Swift compiler for Android and .net Feb 09 04:17:36 from apple? Feb 09 04:18:48 yiati https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9019498 Feb 09 04:19:09 <_genuser_> oh geez, LogCat stopped working. Feb 09 04:19:12 <_genuser_> ove eclipse bugs. Feb 09 04:19:18 <_genuser_> *love Feb 09 04:19:53 probably adb Feb 09 04:19:58 happens to me in AS all the time Feb 09 04:20:06 g00s: interesting, but yeah if it's third party and it comes from apple land then it's not going anywhere Feb 09 04:20:22 unless they decided to make their own clone or buy it Feb 09 04:23:35 <_genuser_> g00s: heh, at least re-starting eclipse is a lot faster than AS. Feb 09 04:23:58 <_genuser_> hey offloading work to IntentService is working!! need to beta test it further. Feb 09 04:24:29 :) Feb 09 04:26:11 <_genuser_> now if my ProgressDialog went away properly.... Feb 09 04:28:05 <_genuser_> seems like while teh IntentService runs the main activity kinda just freezes over. Feb 09 04:30:40 _genuser_ get rid of the progressdialog, thats like froto crap Feb 09 04:30:45 *froyo Feb 09 04:31:43 <_genuser_> so how does one show stuff in progress? Feb 09 04:32:11 _genuser_ what have you observed in newish apps ? Feb 09 04:32:59 <_genuser_> I'll be honest, I'm not that into using apps. I guess hangout is the one I use the most. and I use that once in 6months. and the UI is different everytime. Feb 09 04:33:36 <_genuser_> I can think of the think progress bar embedded at the top of the UI somewhere below actionbar, etc. Feb 09 04:33:43 <_genuser_> s/think/thin/ Feb 09 04:35:40 i see the swipe to refresh spinning disk thing too Feb 09 04:35:59 yeah, i dont use many apps either. play books puts an indeterminte spinner in the content area Feb 09 04:36:21 <_genuser_> so you're saying do something on screen without showing older style pgoress bar. Feb 09 04:36:31 <_genuser_> I can dig that idea of _NOT_ showing older UI patterns. Feb 09 04:38:03 yeah Feb 09 04:38:45 <_genuser_> well, thanks for mentioning that. :) if the app is slow, at least it should _look_ modern Feb 09 04:39:20 <_genuser_> argh stupid timesheet. I just remember to do mine. Feb 09 04:49:05 _genuser_: as an user in general, I prefer when apps are responsive :D Feb 09 04:49:43 <_genuser_> p_l: I'm working on that bit. It's just a lot of processing. I'm looking into caching, background processes, work-ahead, etc. Feb 09 04:50:46 just minimalizing blocking and having some indicator of what is happening (even better if it can subtly show what stage of work the application is on) does wonders Feb 09 04:51:53 <_genuser_> yeah, that's why I was showing a progressdialog. but I think I'll just have an onscreen overlay progress bar. somethign with a transparent background so the UI underneath is still visible. Feb 09 04:52:51 remember that transparency has a huge cost in drawing Feb 09 04:53:32 <_genuser_> well, people _are_ carrying around quadcore pentiums in their pocket, lol. Feb 09 04:56:03 man i hate when i gave to come back up and work on the ui shit, so depressing Feb 09 04:56:16 _genuser_: and use the extra power mostly on less efficient code because "well, it runs good enough when it's the only application on my high-end machine, so of course it does fine on performance, right?" Feb 09 04:57:13 <_genuser_> p_l: no, my last comment was a joke. I'm cutting out all the unneccesarry bits out. For example, I'm on my third implementation for this current feature. Feb 09 04:57:37 <_genuser_> I'm logging time it takes for each individual step in the process using task timers and trying to find the fastest route. Feb 09 04:57:59 oh nice, GTD 2015 edition coming out soon Feb 09 04:58:37 _genuser_: I've recently read some interesting bits regarding using asynchronous tasks coming from a real-time world, where they made even a logging function async Feb 09 04:59:09 isn't logging ususally async ? Feb 09 04:59:19 g00s: log functions tend to be sync Feb 09 04:59:22 afaik :) Feb 09 04:59:32 at least in slf4j-logvack and log4v Feb 09 04:59:35 *log4j Feb 09 04:59:39 <_genuser_> logging would have to sync to get teh log output in the correct order. Feb 09 04:59:44 actually, log4j uses lmax disruptor Feb 09 04:59:46 now imagine that everything that didn't need to was pushing a request to another queue Feb 09 05:00:08 <_genuser_> or at least it would have to be queue in a fifo pipe somewhere to correct order of log stmts is written Feb 09 05:01:38 <_genuser_> opensuse, that's a nice cloak. Feb 09 05:08:44 Can I bubble an event to a parent even though I have an onClickListener set in a child? Feb 09 05:13:31 alternatively, how can I figure out which child was pressed in a parent's onItemClick? Feb 09 05:19:55 g00s: now That's a disruptor http://www.artasylum.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Disruptor1.jpg Feb 09 05:20:37 capella-s3 lol, i've never seen that before but i'm guessing its ... klingon Feb 09 05:21:17 who also had cloaks Feb 09 05:21:30 hehe :p Feb 09 05:22:47 capella is it star trek ? Feb 09 05:23:01 ofc! Feb 09 05:23:26 that looks like original star trek kinda look Feb 09 05:23:50 <_genuser_> TOS FTW!! Feb 09 05:24:19 Yah, just random google... i saw your lmax disruptor comment and that's all I could think about Feb 09 05:28:45 How can I respond to touch events while allowing them to bubble up to the parent (in a list) to let the click animation for the list item go off? Feb 09 05:44:02 hello Feb 09 05:44:12 I have an activity, in this activity I have Feb 09 05:44:15 public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) Feb 09 05:44:30 I was under the impression, returning false would mean the screen is essentially disabled from touch Feb 09 05:44:37 which is the case Feb 09 05:44:44 however, when I return true it is also disabled Feb 09 05:44:54 i don't know why that is happening Feb 09 06:16:32 ir7466, don't call super Feb 09 06:17:08 i'm not calling super Feb 09 06:17:44 it looks like this: Feb 09 06:17:47 public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) { boolean isAdministrator = _appData.User.isAdministrator(); return isAdministrator; } Feb 09 06:18:04 if the user is not an adminstrator, the screen should be disabled to touch Feb 09 06:18:05 ir7466, oh, brcaus you're not calling super Feb 09 06:18:14 oh, i SHOULD call it? Feb 09 06:18:44 you're not actually dispatching if you don't Feb 09 06:18:55 ah okay Feb 09 06:20:03 hmm, now it just works on both Feb 09 06:20:12 whether true or false is returned, the screen is totally enabled Feb 09 06:20:21 I added this as the first line: super.dispatchTouchEvent(event); Feb 09 06:20:25 don't call it when you don't want to dispatch Feb 09 06:20:33 duh Feb 09 06:20:50 don't call super? Feb 09 06:21:18 so it's calling super that dictates whether the event fires or not, not what is returned? Feb 09 06:21:35 I was following http://stackoverflow.com/a/28401496/2884981 Feb 09 06:21:45 How do you handle clicks on children within listviews? I'd like not to screw up the parent's click animations Feb 09 06:21:47 you're misunderstanding how the return value is used Feb 09 06:22:01 quit. reading stackoverflow and read the apidoc Feb 09 06:23:18 learning via stackoverflow sucks Feb 09 06:23:43 ActionBar.OnNavigationListener, obsoleted? What's the recommended way for doing actionbar spinners now? Feb 09 06:24:02 pfn: it works now, thank you Feb 09 06:34:08 I want my background row animation to fire when row's child views are clicked Feb 09 06:34:17 setting onClick listeners is breaking this Feb 09 06:36:02 <_genuser_> so is there a way to load a temporary view in a gridview while getItem() prepares a real view? Feb 09 06:41:51 Phlow, the recommendation is no spinners Feb 09 06:42:31 _genuser_, return a view that will load itself Feb 09 06:43:43 How can I keep a child onClick handler from preventing the parent's click animation? Feb 09 06:44:06 I want the parent to animate normally even though the child is handling the click Feb 09 06:57:12 does anyone know what the default android edittext drawable is? Feb 09 06:57:23 sorry, I meant to say autocompletetextview Feb 09 06:57:55 <_genuser_> pfn: sorry, I do'nt understand. Feb 09 07:02:53 child view focus prevents click animation in parent Feb 09 07:03:22 how do I keep my listviews click animations from getting screwed up by click handlers? Feb 09 07:03:49 disabling clickable prevents click hander from getting called. Not finding the right combination of focusability. Feb 09 07:04:02 https://github.com/chrisjenx/Calligraphy#configuration says "Define your default font using CalligraphyConfig, in your Application class." - should I have an Application class? Should I create it, and what should it extend? Feb 09 07:13:39 I'm following these instructions, and nothing is happening to my actionbar: https://developer.android.com/training/basics/actionbar/styling.html Feb 09 07:13:57 I set the background to just be a color, and I made the parent Theme.AppCompat... Feb 09 07:15:14 got my stuff working by setting background drawable Feb 09 07:16:18 so using a @color won't work? Feb 09 07:17:42 I just tried setting it to the google+ button and it still fails Feb 09 07:19:09 set style Feb 09 07:20:38 nvm ^ I just put it in every activity Feb 09 07:20:54 http://pastebin.com/PA38Zdcn This is the beginning of my styles.xml. My manifest has my application theme set to "AppTheme" Feb 09 07:34:10 hesperaux did you figure it out? your paste is gone Feb 09 07:34:36 drinfernoo, still can't figure it out - I am doing what the dev page says, but the actionbar does not change Feb 09 07:34:47 I'm extending ActionBarActivity and I'm using v21+ Feb 09 07:35:01 using ActionBar or Toolbar? Feb 09 07:35:23 what are you trying to do? Feb 09 07:35:28 I am not sure - I assume it's ActionBar because until about 2 minutes ago I didn't know what Toolbar was, and I'm extending ActionBarActivity Feb 09 07:35:37 I just want to change the background color of the actionbar for the moment Feb 09 07:36:10 wait a sec Feb 09 07:36:20 background="@color/yourColor"? Feb 09 07:36:21 http://pastebin.com/NEFr278S <--here is the start of my styles.xml. In my manifest I've declared AppTheme as the theme for the application. Feb 09 07:36:43 drinfernoo, correct. I've also tried @android:drawable/somerandomgoogle+icon Feb 09 07:37:20 no Feb 09 07:37:31 https://chris.banes.me/2014/10/17/appcompat-v21/ Feb 09 07:37:33 you Feb 09 07:37:40 you're doing it wrong Feb 09 07:37:59 gordon_, so far not helpful Feb 09 07:38:04 lol Feb 09 07:38:12 http://pastebin.com/ctSvdPSe Feb 09 07:38:24 all you need to do is set colorPrimary and colorSecondary Feb 09 07:38:27 and color will change Feb 09 07:38:48 only works with Toolbar, right? Feb 09 07:38:53 no Feb 09 07:38:57 oh Feb 09 07:39:02 interesting Feb 09 07:39:18 brb, trying Feb 09 07:39:20 well, it does only work if you don't want the actionbar to change colors at any point Feb 09 07:39:31 good luck Feb 09 07:39:33 I'm out Feb 09 07:39:41 when you need change style Feb 09 07:39:46 s/when/then Feb 09 07:40:37 hesperaux: if you have more questions highlight me Feb 09 07:40:45 gordon_, thanks, will do Feb 09 07:41:53 awe Feb 09 07:41:55 how goes Feb 09 07:42:10 nice. it worked. thanks gordon_ Feb 09 07:42:18 good Feb 09 07:42:21 hi good morning, can i use contact list image jpeg instead bitmap ? Feb 09 07:42:42 gordon_, do you know if this works the same on 4.2.1-5? Feb 09 07:42:55 it doesnt matter Feb 09 07:43:09 if you are using appcompatv7 - 21 it will work Feb 09 07:43:28 yay. Should I go back and use Toolbar, or keep using ActionBar? Feb 09 07:45:45 technically you are already using toolbar Feb 09 07:46:03 hey lemonxah Feb 09 07:46:06 I dont see any advantage of using toolbar in your layout for now Feb 09 07:46:14 maybe I'm wrong Feb 09 07:46:38 but still, if you will need to, you can always define new style for that one activity and put toolbar in layout Feb 09 07:46:58 I haven't done anything to spice up the actionbar yet. It's just the activity name with nav... Feb 09 07:48:56 I can set the action bar background color, but then if I also set the app background color the action bar becomes that color too? Feb 09 07:49:35 i am trying to subscribe to location updates but get an exception cuz the location provider is off but i also can't get the event onProviderEnabled... Feb 09 07:50:22 http://dpaste.com/35T3YAZ Feb 09 07:51:01 without the android:background line, the app is white and the actionbar is @color/action_bar. with the android:background line, both the app and the action bar are @color/background. I want action bar to be @color/action_bar and the app to be @color/background, obviously Feb 09 07:52:11 Is there a reason why a textPassword EditText has wider letter spacing than that of for instance textEmailAddress ? Feb 09 07:58:15 duncannz, I had a working action bar color, but when I set my theme's android:backround="@color/bleh" it made the activity and action bar backgrounds @color/bleh. Feb 09 07:58:59 hesperaux: that is the exact same problem I am having :/ Feb 09 07:59:00 any solution? Feb 09 07:59:15 I don't know - I just ran across it so I thought you would want to know Feb 09 07:59:36 I'm guessing that background overrides the background color of all views, including action bar Feb 09 08:01:45 can i use .jpeg instead bitmap on contact list ? Feb 09 08:02:46 duncannz: because it's not background property... Feb 09 08:03:25 gordon_: what property is it? Feb 09 08:03:58 http://pastebin.com/ctSvdPSe Feb 09 08:04:07 colorPrimary Feb 09 08:04:10 colorPrimaryDark Feb 09 08:04:32 gordon_, for me, colorPrimaryDark doesn't change the background color of activities Feb 09 08:04:54 for activity it's background I guess Feb 09 08:05:20 let me check Feb 09 08:05:27 ActionBarActivity for me technically. The issue I think is that he wants to set activity background, but it overrides the actionbar colorPrimary Feb 09 08:05:55 @color/base Feb 09 08:05:59 it's windowBackground Feb 09 08:06:07 ahah! that makes sense Feb 09 08:07:58 android:colorPrimary requires API level 21 Feb 09 08:08:06 oh yep android:windowBackground works, thanks :) Feb 09 08:08:31 duncannz, are you using appcompat? Feb 09 08:08:55 yes, hesperaux Feb 09 08:09:18 android:windowBackground is working and is not giving any compatibility warnings so I think that should be fine Feb 09 08:10:01 thank you again gordon_ :D Feb 09 08:10:17 now it's bed time for me Feb 09 08:27:57 Hi all, can any one help to find where(in which file) exactly in contacts app the blacklist is implemented ? Feb 09 08:31:36 What is the best way to get an app to display nicely on all devices? In Android Studio, the design fits but when I load it on my actual device, some things kind of "get squashed" for example I have a textView that overlaps a button etc Feb 09 08:32:07 need a screenshot Feb 09 08:32:42 Hi all, can any one help to find where(in which file) exactly in contacts app the blacklist is implemented ? Feb 09 08:33:16 If you use a relative layout, make sure not to specific widths of elements, but instead let them wrap around their content or fill the remaining space with layout weight and gravity. Feb 09 08:37:22 yeah I specified widths. can you specific percentages? Feb 09 08:37:32 like if i want an image to fill only 25% of the screen Feb 09 08:37:58 Utils, you design an app in a way that has stretchable content/empty areas Feb 09 08:38:10 doing stuff like "this HAS to be 25% of the screen" will cause you grief, pain and huge performance hits Feb 09 08:39:48 You usually want the UI to have for example a button, but fill the remaining space of that row with a text area. Or have an image, but fill the remaining space below that with text. Feb 09 08:40:25 In that case you specify wrap_content on the button, and a width of 0 with a weight of more than 0 on the text area. Feb 09 08:44:00 or match_parent with margins ;) Feb 09 08:46:00 http://i.imgur.com/0o8b1bT.png well at the moment I have this. Basically what happens is that the Register textView overlaps the button. It doesn't force itself under. The textViews and the button are wrap_content and I use margins and paddings. on the button. Should I be using a grid or something? Feb 09 08:46:57 It's all in a relativelayotu too. Feb 09 08:48:38 Utils: use the android:layout_below attribute Feb 09 08:49:35 On what? Feb 09 08:51:36 well what do you want below the login button in your screenshot? Feb 09 08:51:52 do you want the blue login button below the grey register button? Feb 09 08:53:23 The register button is red? :o Feb 09 08:54:41 If one had to go below the other, I would choose the login button to be below. Feb 09 08:55:09 Okay, so what is your Problem? The textview and the button overlaying each other? Feb 09 08:55:45 First, I'd set a leftOf="@id/whatever_I'd_your_button_has" on the textview. Feb 09 08:56:13 This means it stays left of the button, and becomes multiple lines if not enough space exists. Feb 09 08:56:56 Utils: do just add android:layout_below to your login button with the value of what is above it Feb 09 08:57:02 id value Feb 09 08:58:57 Ah! Is the layout_below/above used to determine how it's displayed on smaller views? Feb 09 08:59:21 Not really. Feb 09 09:00:02 It is used for where to align it. Feb 09 09:00:03 It tells the system "this layout will always be below this one", so you don't position with pixels. Feb 09 09:03:59 hi. i need some help for setting up jdk for android studio. android studio is unable to find a valid JVM after the recent update. Feb 09 09:06:21 I tried that Napalm but "Exception raised during rendering: Circular dependencies cannot exist in RelativeLayout" what exactly does this mean? Feb 09 09:06:38 it means what it says Feb 09 09:06:48 lol Feb 09 09:07:03 pastebin your xml layout so we can see it to help you Feb 09 09:07:43 http://pastebin.com/AXXwUbML here Feb 09 09:13:46 Napalm interesting that the ble callbacks occur on different binder threads Feb 09 09:14:23 there must be a pool of threads used for each call Feb 09 09:19:42 g00s: yes there is Feb 09 09:20:13 Utils: sorry you didnt mention my nick so I didnt get an alert Feb 09 09:22:01 Utils: have you ever used Styles? Feb 09 09:22:55 having problems with mavericks + jdk + android studio. Android studio cannot find valid jvm. java command not found. Feb 09 09:23:08 well I'm almost fully new to this. I have two styles although it's simply the style tags for themes that I use in the manifest, otherwise no I haven't used them. Feb 09 09:23:18 Napalm ^ Feb 09 09:24:15 jdk installation from oracle keeps failing! anyone can help? Feb 09 09:24:17 :/ Feb 09 09:24:38 Utils: just fixing up this layout for you Feb 09 09:24:55 Is it that bad, Napalm lmao. Feb 09 09:25:38 http://i.imgur.com/0o8b1bT.png Feb 09 09:25:45 thats the layout you want? Feb 09 09:25:49 whats the problem exactly here Feb 09 09:26:39 The main problem was that the register textView overlapped the button when on a smaller device. You suggested adding layout_below to the button in which I did and then I apparently ended up with a circular dependency issue Feb 09 09:27:12 ok, one moment Feb 09 09:31:34 i have deleted Current under /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/ in mavericks. Can i restore this? Feb 09 09:31:57 oops Feb 09 09:34:07 tty all you can try is reinstalling the apple and/or oracle jvms Feb 09 09:34:26 dont eff around with that unless you really know what you're doing :) Feb 09 09:35:01 you could screw things up you need to reinstall the OS, or at least the latest service bundle Feb 09 09:36:20 g00s: do you think this will help? http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572 Feb 09 09:36:57 Post Date: May 29, 2014 Feb 09 09:37:13 hm, dunno i would think you want one for 10.10 Feb 09 09:37:21 i'm still using 10.7 ;) Feb 09 09:37:26 10.9 here Feb 09 09:37:45 ah ok, yeah apple does a crappy job of listing those things Feb 09 09:38:09 g00s: I'm using 10.10 Feb 09 09:38:13 it's mmmkay Feb 09 09:38:17 not good, not bad Feb 09 09:38:28 g00s: ok. installed. java now is a valid command. Feb 09 09:39:13 thepoosh yeah, i dont know if it will work well on my 2009 MBP Feb 09 09:39:19 4G memory Feb 09 09:39:31 g00s: he. 2008 MBP here :P Feb 09 09:39:43 10.9 is doing good.

Feb 09 09:45:30 oh, I have a MBP 2012 Feb 09 09:45:33 i think Feb 09 09:45:36 even 2013 Feb 09 09:45:41 i have the retina display Feb 09 09:45:44 whatever that is Feb 09 09:45:55 nice Feb 09 09:46:11 anyone ever tried http://www.rushorm.com/ ? any feedbacks ? Feb 09 09:46:33 g00s: I told them I'll do with a Linux machine Feb 09 09:46:53 but the CPO changed to the MBP 2014 (and then to the 2015) Feb 09 09:46:56 so I got his Feb 09 09:47:16 lol, devs should get first dibs Feb 09 09:47:29 what the hell does the CPO need the latest MBP for ? Feb 09 09:48:31 well, i guess its Certificed Pre Owned :D Feb 09 09:48:59 Morning all Feb 09 09:49:02 what type of exception is a "CalledFromWrongThreadException" -exception? Feb 09 09:49:38 Troffel did you try googling it ? Feb 09 09:49:49 yap, might google fuu is shit apparently Feb 09 09:50:45 how about Sewer Overflow? Feb 09 09:50:57 WrongThreadException Feb 09 09:51:29 had to look at a bit of an obscure place, since all stackoverflows provide the "runonuithread" solution Feb 09 09:58:54 O.o Feb 09 09:59:03 what exactly are you doing you're getting that exception? Feb 09 10:00:03 blusky, yet another orm lib? ^^ Feb 09 10:04:00 I feel like im using way to many layouts since Material Design Feb 09 10:04:28 such a waste to have to wrap Relative Layouts in a CardView just to get the look Feb 09 10:05:25 Hmm? Feb 09 10:05:38 g00s, worked with retrofit a lot? Feb 09 10:05:48 lemonxah not at all Feb 09 10:05:51 oh ok Feb 09 10:05:52 You should only wrap stuff in a cardview anyway if the user can swipe it away and it actually makes sense. Feb 09 10:05:53 nvm thne Feb 09 10:06:02 then even Feb 09 10:06:09 Mavrik, great question. it's a simple function that sets visibility of a textview on adverts, implemented inside a viewpager adapter. It's called everytime a swipe occours, but from a 100k installed devices we get 300 reports of a wrongthreadexception. Feb 09 10:06:10 lemonxah how are your kotlin adventures going ? you have to keep us posted :D Feb 09 10:06:26 i will :) its still early days Feb 09 10:06:41 haven't had much time this weekend though Feb 09 10:07:02 lemonxah do you know what parts of the app will get kotlin love yet ? Feb 09 10:07:20 i'm assuming this is mixit right ? Feb 09 10:07:23 my app .. all of it :) but i am starting with my mqtt service Feb 09 10:07:32 oh yeah, that :D Feb 09 10:07:34 no its not mxit its a loadshedding app Feb 09 10:08:24 the power provider in south africa has grossly misused its funds and never done any maintanance Feb 09 10:08:34 so now the entire country has loadshedding Feb 09 10:09:01 once a day at a determined time (or out of the blue) they shut off all power to designated areas for 2 to 4 hours at a time Feb 09 10:09:02 lol Feb 09 10:10:58 i know right .. Feb 09 10:11:13 lemonxah government corruption ?

Feb 09 10:12:45 anyway Feb 09 10:12:49 always feel safer behaind a big screen Feb 09 10:13:14 does anyone know of a way using gson to decode 1 field that is in base64 or do i have to decode after getting it Feb 09 10:13:24 i am hoping gson will just do it :) Feb 09 10:20:27 hi all, is there any one who is aware of contacts app? Feb 09 10:21:46 ythej: ? Feb 09 10:22:05 yeah a friend of mine was telling me that he was going to ship his brother from SA to Ireland because it was just impossible to get work done down there Feb 09 10:22:18 thepoosh, hi :) Feb 09 10:22:21 hi Feb 09 10:22:51 http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android-apps/4.1.2_r1/com/android/contacts/ Feb 09 10:24:03 bah Feb 09 10:24:12 does anyone know out of his head... in NDK Feb 09 10:24:19 is the bitmap buffer size width*height or stride*height? Feb 09 10:25:26 thepoosh, help to find where(in which file) exactly in contacts app the blacklist is implemented ? Feb 09 10:25:33 no Feb 09 10:28:24 hi, I'm wondering, what is the best way to generate and store RSA keys on Android 4.0 and 4.3? Feb 09 10:28:59 http://stackoverflow.com/a/9965964/1056359 Feb 09 10:31:35 lemonxah, kotlin now eh? Feb 09 10:32:26 and scala Feb 09 10:32:30 comparing Feb 09 10:33:37 i like scala but i dont like the copmlex interface inheritance causeing the app to not run on 2.3 devices Feb 09 10:33:39 Dexopt fails with "LinearAlloc exceeded" for deep interface hierarchies Feb 09 10:34:17 on newer phones that isn't an issue but seing as we are still supporting 2.1 2.2 and 2.3 its causing issues Feb 09 10:34:26 thepoosh, I searched a lot in that repo a lot before too.But couldn't figure out. Can you please tell the exact file ? Feb 09 10:34:27 bummer Feb 09 10:34:29 for now i got around it by narrowing the proguard rules Feb 09 10:34:42 try 2.11.5? Feb 09 10:34:49 ythej: no, I haven't read the code, you need to read it yourself Feb 09 10:35:02 thepoosh: so from what i understand it's best to use spongycastle for key generation and general crypto operations, but how to store private keys in a secure manner? Feb 09 10:35:04 not yet was on 2.11.2 i was having that issue Feb 09 10:35:11 will try 2.11.5 in a bit Feb 09 10:35:26 that is the highest voted answer Feb 09 10:35:26 thepoosh, okay, thanks :) Feb 09 10:35:39 2.11.5 made some changes that may or may not improve it Feb 09 10:36:21 will check it out Feb 09 10:36:38 doing scala for work related stuff and learning kotlin just to know it Feb 09 10:37:08 there is allready one thing kotlin doesn't do as well as scala that is getting to me and that is the pattern matching Feb 09 10:37:31 i mean its there just not as pretty and you have to do extra things to bind to data values Feb 09 10:37:33 meh Feb 09 10:52:05 but i am only a noob Feb 09 11:05:03 anyone familiar with android bluetooth le scanning? Feb 09 11:05:34 i have the standard device advertising every second, but on one phonem it scans then stop receiving the advertising Feb 09 11:05:53 it is just that one phone - i tried also other apps with the same result Feb 09 11:06:11 i think it is actively scanning or trying to connect to device Feb 09 11:06:20 switching scanning on/off mitigates the problem Feb 09 11:06:29 but maybe there is some system-wide bluetooth le setting Feb 09 11:10:21 I've made an Android Library project in Eclipse (MyLib). I've also made an Android Application Project (MyApp). MyApp refers to MyLib. Both projects have resources, and both have an background color in values/color.xml, and both have a set of app_icons under drawable-*. Feb 09 11:10:24 ... Feb 09 11:10:54 do they have the same namespace? Feb 09 11:11:02 Both also have auto-generated R.javas where MyApp appears to overwrite MyLib's background color. But they have different namespaces =) Feb 09 11:11:14 However, how does this lookup work? Feb 09 11:13:16 It seems that java code in MyLib looks up resources from its own library. And MyApp prefers to load its own resources, but fallbacks to MyLibs. But how does this work? My mean, R.color.background is simply and int. This int is the same in MyLib and MyApp. How does Android know which file to load based on the same int? Feb 09 11:14:30 Everything appears to work as expected. I would just like to know why it works -- the inner working of Android's resource lookup. Feb 09 11:17:46 it will first lookup for its own resources Feb 09 11:18:55 then in librarie's Feb 09 11:19:26 also it will first look for values in phone's Locale, i.e. values-de, then fallback to values Feb 09 11:22:29 I've got a pretty good feeling how that works: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/providing-resources.html#BestMatch Feb 09 11:23:37 But I'm still puzzled how (e.g.) id 0x123456789 translates to either an image in MyLib or MyApp. Feb 09 11:30:19 It's all merged into a single res folder Feb 09 11:31:45 mylib.R.drawable.image and myapp.R.drawable.image has the same int value, which corresponds to an image in the final (and only) res folder Feb 09 11:32:42 You can also "override" a library resource by providing one with the same name Feb 09 11:56:02 btw. if someone other encounters this bluetooth le problem - some devices like nexus 4 and nexus 7 show one advertising per scan :f and override is to keep restarting startLeScan/stopLeScan :F Feb 09 12:11:09 SimonVT: but different images are looked up depending on the lookup is done by code in MyLib or MyApp. Feb 09 12:26:47 HI all can i get root from adb ? Feb 09 12:27:21 or be able to write to "/system/etc/permissions/platform.xml Feb 09 12:27:28 in any form Feb 09 12:27:41 Not on production builds. Feb 09 12:27:59 i can pull it to my linux and modify it but not push it back Feb 09 12:28:06 On debug builds you can use adb root, adb remount to get access. Feb 09 12:28:44 ok Feb 09 12:29:13 the NO write permission to externel Sdcard from 4.4x is a miss Feb 09 12:29:31 It exists for a good reason. Feb 09 12:30:00 And I'd have preferred if Google never introduced write permissions directly, but instead providers for media types. Feb 09 12:30:02 i know but on ASTR images at 35MB per image its not good on a 4GB system Feb 09 12:30:17 You can put them on the sdcard. Feb 09 12:30:32 In your apps folder on the sdcard. Feb 09 12:30:51 Android/data/com.example.app/ Feb 09 12:31:52 You have access to that folder, but warning, no other app has. Feb 09 12:32:39 im using dslrdashboard app Feb 09 12:34:47 Oh, hmm. Feb 09 12:35:18 Camera apps can just use the system provider to put photos into DCIM on the SD Feb 09 12:36:26 ok i see then i only can make 2 images in a row and push it to the external via ESfileexplorer Feb 09 12:38:49 justJanne: there are oneClick root apps out that gives root for only to next restart are they able to root Feb 09 12:51:26 Hello friends... Feb 09 12:53:11 Please my content provider is not refreshing after delete... Feb 09 12:59:24 every once and a while, when I come back to using Android studio, I won't get any updated log cat data. I usually just restart Android Studio, but is there a quicker way to do it? Feb 09 13:00:56 You can press the "restart logcat" button Feb 09 13:01:47 Hey, I'm trying to add Google Analytics to my app, the following line of code never returns a value for some reason, GoogleAnalytics analytics = GoogleAnalytics.getInstance(this); have you encountered that? Feb 09 13:03:02 Thanks justJanne Feb 09 13:03:04 The device have play services installed and isGooglePlayServicesAvailable () returns SUCCESS Feb 09 13:11:21 I want to add search button similar to youtube app at top in the navigation bar/action bar. Feb 09 13:12:05 Anyone have any idea how to do this? Feb 09 13:12:07 Look into the search mode of the new toolbar. Feb 09 13:13:43 justJanne: thx look in to that Feb 09 13:13:49 Zta: It'll be the same image if they are looking up the same resource name Feb 09 13:17:37 How do i refresh UI when i delete an item from the list.. using content provider! Feb 09 13:18:33 i've use getContentResolver().notifyChange(uri, null, null) Feb 09 13:19:28 .* Feb 09 13:19:37 i am reading characterstics values from BLE device but it thorugh error ?? Feb 09 13:19:38 .* Feb 09 13:19:38 mBluetoothGatt.readCharacteristic(lv_characterstics); Feb 09 13:19:39
