**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Feb 03 02:59:58 2016 Feb 03 03:00:00 g00s, great Feb 03 03:00:20 well, luckily i can afford it, but... man, seems so wasteful... never needed this much ram for anything... Feb 03 03:00:43 yeah; my 2009 MBP is actually good for anything these days - except running bloated java crap Feb 03 03:00:57 can still use Adobe Lightroom like i did in 2012 Feb 03 03:01:03 :) Feb 03 03:04:53 Guys I want to put a notification counter in a viewpager tab when new content comes in. Where do I refer to, to research on this? I never done this before. Feb 03 03:05:33 The content may come from an API call Feb 03 03:05:44 Do I need some event listener library to do this? Feb 03 03:10:32 I had a 2008 mbp until last year Feb 03 03:11:33 ron_frown pretty much any app i use works fine (except chrome with lots of tabs - and java stuff) Feb 03 03:12:01 yeah I really only upgraded because I was doing android shit at the time and because I needed eoy writeoffs Feb 03 03:33:28 meh, can't write anything off from last year :-/ Feb 03 03:33:33 I need to buy a ton of shit this year to write shit off Feb 03 03:35:16 switching over to a 15 year mortgage is gonna fuck me in the ass for taxes, too Feb 03 04:22:53 is it possible to align everything center in a vertical layout? or i'd have to use a relative layout for that? Feb 03 04:24:10 never mind I got it Feb 03 04:24:10 :p Feb 03 06:09:42 * Beautiful ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) Feb 03 06:29:41 Beautiful: unicode art > ascii art? Feb 03 06:32:27 is Dwarf Fortress made from unicode art? Feb 03 06:33:30 wyoung, my art > ur art Feb 03 06:35:28 I've made changes to my application in Android Studio, but when I run the app on my hardware device, it does not reflect these changes... any thoughts? Feb 03 06:36:04 Tried deleting the file in data/local/temp/ Feb 03 06:42:33 Beautiful: I don't art so that statement isn't hard to be True Feb 03 06:44:20 wyoung, your comments has "programmer" written all over them :D Feb 03 06:48:18 Beautiful: for(Skill skill : getSkills(wyoung)) if(skill.getName().equals('programmer')) System.out.println('You got it!'); Feb 03 06:49:38 you're thoughtful Feb 03 06:49:47 wyoung ^ Feb 03 06:50:40 :P Feb 03 06:52:06 although I would rather python: [print 'You got it!' for skill in getSkills(wyoung) if skill.name == 'programmer'] Feb 03 06:54:22 getSkills, really? surely wyoung.skills Feb 03 06:55:05 Python doesn't sprinkle getters and setters everywhere... Feb 03 06:55:12 Leeds: you are correct :) Feb 03 06:55:23 plus I forget the () on the print function Feb 03 06:55:28 but any way :) Feb 03 06:57:55 Leeds: yeah, the @property decorator takes care of getters and settings :) Feb 03 06:58:02 setters* Feb 03 07:20:04 Hello people, i'm looking around on my adsense account for a way to view amount of feeds that occured to a specific adunit. Does not look like I can get that ? Feb 03 07:22:38 oh wait. I think I have it. Feb 03 07:22:43 thanks for reading. Feb 03 07:25:39 np Feb 03 07:34:41 friends, is volley the preferred http library for marshmallow? Feb 03 07:37:11 People also like retrofit/okhttp Feb 03 07:37:27 ok.. will check them out Feb 03 07:47:50 How can I made blink animation on image button? Feb 03 07:50:21 Ozymandy: use ImageButton and supply a custom drawable as the background Feb 03 07:52:10 br0mahn: but it will be simple image button Feb 03 07:53:37 Is it enough to test my app on one android device per android OS version (kitkat, lollipop...) or do I need to test different models too? Feb 03 07:55:50 If i have a paid app thats a Work-in-progress. is it best to release it for free first to see how it does? or just release a $5 version first and keep improving it until its final product Feb 03 07:56:41 keep in mind you cant release a free app and then switch to a paid Feb 03 07:56:45 but you can go the other way around Feb 03 07:58:10 maintain two apps.. one free and another paid Feb 03 07:58:57 depending on what your doing you could also do IAP to unlock content Feb 03 08:10:26 couldnt i also just delete the free version from store when ready and up it to paid? Feb 03 08:48:48 aand he left Feb 03 08:58:04 hi! Feb 03 08:59:55 I try to read a file from c code, ndk, but when I do: fp = fopen("/sdcard/sample.txt", "r"); I always get NULL pointer Feb 03 09:00:01 can someone help me? Feb 03 09:00:38 There's just so much wrong with that line. Feb 03 09:01:11 I have the time if you will help :) Feb 03 09:02:19 guys, check out two links Feb 03 09:02:20 http://developer.android.com/images/mediarecorder_state_diagram.gif Feb 03 09:02:28 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3458641/how-to-know-whether-a-mediarecorder-is-in-running-state-or-not Feb 03 09:02:59 HunterD, ok, first of all, neverhardcode paths on Android since they can differ, most devices won't have sdcard at /sdcard Feb 03 09:03:18 Which can be one of the issues you have, resolve the sdcard path via `getExternalStorageDir()` in Java and then pass it to your NDK code. Feb 03 09:03:32 HunterD, second of all, you also probably didn't ask for permission for SD card access if you have Android 6.0 Feb 03 09:03:39 if you don't ask for permission you're not getting access Feb 03 09:05:27 I indeed have android 6, did not checked on the device. I will pass the path from java. for the permission, how can I request it? Feb 03 09:06:02 I'm afraid you'll have to do a callback to Java for that as well Feb 03 09:06:24 HunterD, https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html#perm-request Feb 03 09:07:06 HunterD, note that if you store files in your own private directories on SD card (returned by getFilesDir(), getCacheDir() or getObbDir()) then you don't need the permission Feb 03 09:07:21 sorry, getExternalFielsDir, etc. Feb 03 09:09:05 Mavrik: It's not on a private dir, it's directly in /sdcard/ . Now I think I can get it to work. thank you! Feb 03 09:10:25 Wow, just came across this question. StackOverflow can be harsh. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31746300/how-to-show-snackbar-at-top-of-the-screen Feb 03 09:19:09 negative vote on question Feb 03 09:26:21 surf2b1: https://www.google.com/search?q=signalError+omxError+0x80001001+internalError+-2147483648 Feb 03 09:27:29 surf2b1: at least your question is popular :) Feb 03 09:28:20 squ, o.O what's the link for? Feb 03 09:28:33 can't find answer Feb 03 09:28:54 ah Feb 03 09:29:12 hate android Feb 03 10:04:56 preferred json library for marshmallow? Feb 03 10:17:53 hey Feb 03 11:00:11 Bonjour, Gutentag, Hello, Salam alikoum and Ni Haou :) Feb 03 11:00:19 Holla Feb 03 11:02:34 I haven't much experience with animation, I played a bit like moving a button off the screen and so on, it was cool :) Now I have an animation that scales a textview, it works, however when animation finishes, the view returns to its original state instantly. What do I miss here to keep it scaled? Feb 03 11:04:33 This is my animation: http://pastebin.com/qn8gzAx9 Feb 03 11:05:03 Number5: the animation runs separately, you actually need to set the scale on the object. Feb 03 11:06:01 justJanne, so I need a listener when the animation ends and than change the size property? Feb 03 11:07:02 As you might have noticed, the animation renders independently from what is actually set. Feb 03 11:07:27 Afaik, changing it in the moment you start the animation should work. Feb 03 11:07:56 Use the "new" animation api.. view.animate().scaleY(...).scaleX(...) Feb 03 11:08:22 SimonVT, is this backwards compatible? Feb 03 11:08:32 I need it from Android version 15+ Feb 03 11:08:46 Back to when it was added, which is a long time ago Feb 03 11:09:46 SimonVT, ok, but does this mean it will keep it scaled or will bump back to its original state? As that was my little problem. Feb 03 11:14:02 It changes the actual view properties, like setting them directly would Feb 03 11:15:21 Great, thanks! Feb 03 11:15:26 Another question, if you have time. I have a layout with a view below the bottom, so you can't see it. What I wanted to do is to move the ViewGroup which contains the "hidden" view by animation. Surprisingly only the ViewGroup moved upwards, but my view either stayed invisible or didn't move up. Any Idea SimonVT? Feb 03 11:17:05 Animating translationY/X only moves the view you're animating.. If you want other views to move, animate those as well Feb 03 11:23:49 SimonVT, Thnx for your previous answer, this view.animate().scaleY(...).scaleX(...) works perfectly well, I can give you kiss buddy :P Feb 03 11:24:16 justJanne, thnx for your help too :) Feb 03 11:28:21 SimonVT, about the ViewGroup, I managed to move all the child views just by animating the ViewGroup. Once again, except the view that is off screen. I aligned a view X to the bottom and set View Y belowOf view X, what makes View Y below of the visible screen. After animating, all the visible child views moved except the one that was off screen (View Y). I added a background color to distinguish the views. Feb 03 11:50:45 So amazing day, my app got suspended/removed without any warnings Feb 03 11:51:20 So if someone flags it as spam, it gets automatically removed without any warning ? Feb 03 11:53:12 no clue, but don't bother asking google, they're notoriously bad at telling you anything about their reasons Feb 03 11:53:40 vegetablesalad19, no. And you usually get a mail about the reason Feb 03 11:54:19 if you show us your app, we might be able to help you find the reason Feb 03 11:54:26 what is ‘nexus’ plural form? Feb 03 11:55:03 nexi? :D Feb 03 11:55:06 It sends sms for registration, exactly like whatsapp or telegram Feb 03 11:55:10 squ, in latin, where it comes from, theres no plural Feb 03 11:55:18 yeah Feb 03 11:55:25 one nexus, many nexus Feb 03 11:55:34 someone marked it as sending spam/sms so it got removed Feb 03 11:56:05 https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nexus Feb 03 11:56:05 and I didn't receive any warnings Feb 03 11:56:07 danijoo: nexi/nexae Feb 03 11:56:40 does it send spam/sms ? :p Feb 03 11:56:51 Zharf: google nexus is fem or masc? Feb 03 11:57:00 I have no clue Feb 03 11:57:11 I'd just use nexuses Feb 03 11:57:15 danijoo, it sends sms, but not spam Feb 03 11:57:24 it uses sms registration just like whatsapp Feb 03 11:57:46 and then uses sms if phone doesn't have connection Feb 03 11:58:08 vegetablesalad19, did you make that clear to the user and in the app description? Feb 03 11:58:14 its a city parking app, you can send START/STOP via sms to manage your parking Feb 03 11:58:59 danijoo, yes it is clear for user when it's working in sms mode Feb 03 11:59:24 but even if it wasn't shouldn't they send a notice/warning first Feb 03 11:59:28 before removing app Feb 03 11:59:29 vegetablesalad19, try to contact google then Feb 03 11:59:52 it's one week till they give any response Feb 03 12:00:04 at least 2 days or so, yeah. Feb 03 12:00:39 1:58:30 PM - squ: 10 pcs of Google Nexa six-pi Feb 03 12:00:39 1:58:41 PM * Armand stabs squ Feb 03 12:00:39 1:58:53 PM - squ: I brought home dozen of Google Nexa six-pi this evening Feb 03 12:00:39 1:59:01 PM * Armand stabs squ some moar Feb 03 12:00:39 1:59:12 PM - squ: do I sound like English Man? Feb 03 12:00:40 1:59:15 PM - Armand: No Feb 03 12:00:51 hi guys - I'm writing an app that gets a copy of an external Database via query - however, this app will not always have internet connection, so I need to store a local copy of those results. I'm trying to optimise my code as best as I can, so I was wondering if it'd be better to store the copy in a local SQLite database, or in a List/Dictionary, in terms of I/O operation speed? Feb 03 12:00:57 stop that squ Feb 03 12:01:11 this is important and relevant Feb 03 12:01:38 ChrizC, in terms of speed, sql will be faster Feb 03 12:02:27 danijoo: so I'd be better off having a local SQLite db that I query every couple of seconds, rather than a large list/dictionary? Feb 03 12:02:41 yes Feb 03 12:02:44 this db copy will be "queried" every few seconds, is why I ask Feb 03 12:02:57 thats what dbs are for Feb 03 12:03:04 danijoo: thanks. any reasons/sources as to why? just want to increase my knowledge Feb 03 12:03:42 ChrizC, a dictionary file must be read line by line for searching or as a whole for filtering Feb 03 12:03:49 databases are optimized for that Feb 03 12:04:05 ah awesome, sounds good. thanks for the advice danijoo, much appreciated Feb 03 12:04:08 ie getting a list of all entries with certain conditions is super fast Feb 03 12:04:25 assuming you can't keep the whole thing in memory Feb 03 12:04:26 for small datasets files often work too, but they are not scaleable Feb 03 12:04:38 yeah. and what Zharf said Feb 03 12:05:48 ah, what if I could keep the whole thing in memory? Feb 03 12:06:16 (I know that's probably not advisable but this app is for a dedicated device so memory competition is not an issue) Feb 03 12:06:16 then it doesnt matter because you load it into memory once and dont read any file anymore Feb 03 12:06:55 danijoo: so a Dictionary/List in memory would be quicker than querying an SQLite db? Feb 03 12:06:57 ChrizC, remember 2gb memory doesnt mean your app can use 2gb. it may can only use 64 mb or so Feb 03 12:07:05 ChrizC, probably Feb 03 12:07:16 and most likely not noticeably faster Feb 03 12:07:39 ah okay, sounds like I should go for the db anyway just to be scaleable Feb 03 12:07:50 good decision Feb 03 12:07:57 thanks danijoo / Zharf Feb 03 12:07:59 I have an app that uses an sql database and it gets queried for every char a user enters in a textfield (to show suggestions) Feb 03 12:08:08 and theres no noticeable lag. so this is fast enough Feb 03 12:08:12 ah, brilliant Feb 03 12:08:14 +1 Feb 03 12:09:40 I'm planning on doing something similar as well, but for me there's a network socket in between so I think there will be some lag... :p Feb 03 12:10:20 oh fuck. Feb 03 12:10:21 http://android-developers.blogspot.si/2016/02/marshmallow-and-user-data.html Feb 03 12:12:16 Mavrik, what about it Feb 03 12:12:41 Well, they just killed all point-to-point apps that need to access MAC to communicate. Feb 03 12:12:51 Playing babysitters without giving alternative via dangerous permisison. Feb 03 12:12:56 Or in other words: Feb 03 12:13:08 Why the fuck am I still using Android if it's crippled the same way as Apple toys. Feb 03 12:16:09 * Mavrik gets more coffee. Feb 03 12:20:32 Mavrik, I'm not concerned, but if there's enough people who care, there's probably going to be some changes, I'd wager Feb 03 12:20:43 Mah I don't know. Feb 03 12:20:57 The trend of dumb "security" API changes in last few Android versions is problematic. Feb 03 12:21:16 Since they just revoke/close stuff off without giving an alternative for apps that need those accesses. Feb 03 12:21:26 (Secondary SD card access for example.) Feb 03 12:22:32 how do you mean? was there ever any real way to use secondary sd card? at least I couldn't for the life of me find any APIs that would give me a path to one Feb 03 12:24:47 Zharf, exactly. Feb 03 12:25:08 They just "fixed" the issue by slapping write protect on it in 4.4 with no way to override it. Feb 03 12:25:11 but you can't revoke/close something that never existed :p Feb 03 12:25:26 Does that make it any less broken? Feb 03 12:26:36 no, and I agree the write protect in kitkat was retarded... I haven't tried it in lollipop yet but I read something about it being changed there again Feb 03 12:27:49 Yeah, they added the option that you ask for access via SAF. Feb 03 12:28:07 which is what they should've done in the first place Feb 03 12:28:11 But that's still terrible UX for apps that actually work with files (like file explorers) Feb 03 12:30:52 I don't remember ES file explorer asking me anything though Feb 03 12:32:05 but maybe I've never written anything with it Feb 03 12:34:00 if I ever get off my lazy ass and write that music library syncing app I've been planning, I might look into that more Feb 03 12:34:42 is there any lightweight launcher in android that doesnt lag? Feb 03 12:35:22 i found one in f-droid text only and even that stutters Feb 03 12:36:15 o.O Feb 03 12:36:28 :) Feb 03 12:36:37 are you sure there's nothing wrong with your device? Feb 03 12:36:49 i debloated all i could Feb 03 12:36:55 wrong channel and if all launchers lag you might want a better phone :p Feb 03 12:37:13 idk i think its bad coding from devs Feb 03 12:37:30 i've seen crapier hardware on iphone and wont lag Feb 03 12:37:32 from _all_ devs that ever coded a launcher? :D Feb 03 12:38:01 lets compare apples and pears.. Feb 03 12:38:08 I'd wager something's using all your device resources instead Feb 03 12:39:04 or its a super old crapphone Feb 03 12:39:12 mali 400 Feb 03 12:39:17 and dual core ye Feb 03 12:39:19 but still Feb 03 12:39:33 no excuse for not even driving a 2d launcher Feb 03 12:39:34 yeah. super old crapphone :) Feb 03 12:39:41 use the stock launcher Feb 03 12:39:54 but i have ios 7.1 on my 4s Feb 03 12:40:00 this crap doesnt lag a bit Feb 03 12:40:12 ios is ios Feb 03 12:40:15 android is shit Feb 03 12:40:26 I have windows 10 on my computer and it doesnt lag! Feb 03 12:40:43 is that helpful? no :p Feb 03 12:40:48 stock launchers lags too Feb 03 12:41:08 libre, go to #android Feb 03 12:41:16 this is the application development channel Feb 03 12:41:23 isnt the same thing? Feb 03 12:41:27 no Feb 03 12:41:28 do ppl there code? Feb 03 12:41:36 you are not asking about coding Feb 03 12:43:07 so noone here coded a launcher? Feb 03 12:44:15 how would it help you if someone did? Feb 03 12:44:27 i guess the devs are too busy handling permissions Feb 03 12:44:55 well yes, i could try the app and give feedback Feb 03 12:45:10 give your feedback in the app store Feb 03 12:45:16 thats where it reachs the devs :) Feb 03 12:45:22 noone reads there Feb 03 12:45:37 thats bs. every dev reads there Feb 03 12:45:48 then why apps are so terrible? Feb 03 12:46:11 libre: please take the conversation to #android, you're off topic Feb 03 12:46:58 wow really Feb 03 12:48:56 libre: this is from devs, for devs. Feb 03 12:49:04 and what devs do? Feb 03 12:49:15 why would i ask such q for a non dev? Feb 03 12:49:25 User → Dev, or Dev → User, or User → User is #android Feb 03 12:49:42 lets just ignore him. he wont stop anyways.. Feb 03 12:49:44 #android-dev is purely Dev → Dev Feb 03 12:50:14 Does anyone know of a workaround to fix this memory leak regarding the SpellcheckerSession? https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=172542 Setting all EditTexts to textNoSuggestions is supposed to work, but what if you actually want suggestions? Feb 03 12:52:10 barq: in which versions does that regression occur? Feb 03 12:53:35 SDK_INT >= JELLY_BEAN && SDK_INT <= LOLLIPOP_MR1 Feb 03 12:54:01 barq: No problem then. Problem only occurrs on obsolete versions. Feb 03 12:54:18 * loke___ only supprots api level 23 Feb 03 12:55:15 Most apps support at least 16 Feb 03 12:55:34 Okay, so it occurs on these versions? Feb 03 12:55:42 Hm. Feb 03 12:55:47 A workaround would be neat. Feb 03 12:55:52 By this point you should basically just code in a way where leaking an Activity doesn't matter.. Amazing how many ways the framework leaks Feb 03 12:56:02 Is the spell checker session available to the activity code? Feb 03 12:56:16 barq: I know. I was being a little bit ironic. That said, I do set my minimum version to 23. Feb 03 12:56:23 danijoo, I'd read the comments in my apps but most of them are in russian for some reason Feb 03 12:56:26 :p Feb 03 12:56:43 OTOH, I'm not trying to make money off of applications, so I honestly don't care if people below Marshmallow can run it or not. Feb 03 12:56:45 justJanne: The SpellChecker ist tied to EditText/TextView Feb 03 12:57:00 Zharf, and the translater is super bad.. i know that feel Feb 03 12:57:07 yeah Feb 03 12:57:11 barq: can we get a reference to the spell checker somehow? Feb 03 12:57:32 If yes, we could just clean up the references via reflection and do System.gc() Feb 03 12:58:01 Haven't tried that Feb 03 12:58:46 It's a horrible hack, but not any worse than the TLS or Zip hacks. Feb 03 12:59:07 (And those are officially recommended) Feb 03 12:59:24 zip hacks? Feb 03 12:59:39 InflaterInputStream is KitKat+ Feb 03 13:00:02 What is TLS or Zip hacks? Feb 03 13:00:06 So the official suggestion is to instantiate a deflater, modify it via reflection, then build a new stream around that. Feb 03 13:00:25 To get deflater streams on pre-kitkat. Feb 03 13:00:27 Source? Feb 03 13:00:42 I can try to find it later, am on phone right now Feb 03 13:00:50 (And only have 64kbps...) Feb 03 13:00:52 I hacked a few fixes using reflections, but haven't found anyone tackling this SpellChecker leak Feb 03 13:00:52 justJanne, was it inaccessible in pre-kitkat? Feb 03 13:01:32 Well, it's inaccessible after KitKat, too. But now we got a new constructor that takes an additional argument and enables Z_SYNC_FLUSH Feb 03 13:01:43 Without reflection. Feb 03 13:02:43 only "fix" I've done in my apps was bundling my own FileObserver because google's implementation didn't give some flags back to the listener so it was impossible to detect file moves Feb 03 13:07:45 Setting all EditTexts to textNoSuggestions worked at least. Feb 03 13:09:39 does that issue cause any actual problems? Feb 03 13:12:08 Zharf: well, the TLS issue means only SSLv3 is before JellyBean, the DEFLATE issue means you can’t use Deflate on networkstreams before kitkat, the SpellChecker issue means your app leaks memory like an incontinent senior before Lollipop. Feb 03 13:12:21 was talking about the spellchecker one Feb 03 13:12:44 but how much would an incontinent senior leak Feb 03 13:13:05 well, every activity ever stays in RAM Feb 03 13:13:10 until your process gets killed Feb 03 13:13:39 if you put each activity and service in their own process, you can prevent it, obviously Feb 03 13:14:22 lollipop included, by the way Feb 03 13:24:33 hm Feb 03 13:24:45 does the keyboard create the SpellCheckerSession Feb 03 13:26:51 also since this only happens when the session is closed before it's connected to the service, it's not as likely to leak as I thought, but sure... a workaround would be nice Feb 03 13:35:31 Why is it unlikely to leak? Feb 03 13:36:46 how often do you find your services taking very long to connect? Feb 03 13:38:05 Services? This is just an EditText with suggestions Feb 03 13:38:37 did you read the bug report? it's caused when the SpellCheckerSession is closed before the service is connected to it Feb 03 13:38:43 if it connects then it won't leak Feb 03 13:40:19 Happens every time for me Feb 03 13:44:50 justJanne, can't really see an easy way to do a reflection hack on the spellchecker issue Feb 03 13:45:10 :/ Feb 03 14:09:38 justJanne, actually, feeding a TASK_CLOSE event to SpellCheckerSession$SpellCheckerSessionListenerImpl.processTask might work Feb 03 14:12:00 I'm trying to query the google fit history API for all it's step data (bucketed by session) between 1970 and now. but I only receive 208 data buckets, the first with 0 steps from 1970 until jannuary 15th, 2016 and 207 since that date until now. Feb 03 14:12:28 Any idea why I don't receive step data from last year? Feb 03 14:12:36 you might be left with a smaller leak if the service connects afterwards though, but at least it would null the references that lead to the activity Feb 03 14:15:08 can anyone suggest a simple to use ORM for a beginner..and also a link to a tutorial,i've tried using active android but its not working its giving a known issue on lollipop.. Feb 03 14:16:02 ormlite <3 Feb 03 14:16:10 batdroid: we're using ormlite and it's ok. overall I prefer writing my own queries though. Feb 03 14:16:14 ormlite is quite nice Feb 03 14:16:25 I absolutely hate writing my own queries Feb 03 14:16:30 I'll go every distance to avoid it Feb 03 14:16:36 simpler to understand imho... Feb 03 14:17:50 i am frustated right now...i tried activeAndroid-hit a known lollipop issue,cannot have a random function in sugarOrm plus its slow and buggy,greenDoa looks quite complicated. Feb 03 14:18:01 please tell me ormlite is easy and not buggy Feb 03 14:18:13 justJanne, I'll investigate further later, my tester just came back to me with a bug (that I think I'm going to blame support library or samsung for) Feb 03 14:19:17 can't say that I've encountered bugs with ormlite and I found it very simple to use Feb 03 14:19:22 Zharf: btw, you noticed the bug in the support library yet, where, if you hold long over a spinner, then slide over the items, then stop touching, and long press another iem, both are highlighted? Feb 03 14:19:46 no, I don't think we use spinners.. Feb 03 14:20:03 happens also in overflow menus Feb 03 14:20:07 everything using popup theme Feb 03 14:20:39 and what about realm?how good is that? Feb 03 14:21:11 justJanne, just tried that, didnt happen for me. Feb 03 14:21:28 hi is it possible to directly launch a Listpreference from an option MenuItem ; i don't need an intermediary preferenceactivity in my case Feb 03 14:22:18 danijoo: it was fixed in 22.0 for toolbars Feb 03 14:22:53 ah. I think i updated that Feb 03 14:23:05 or was it 21.0? Feb 03 14:23:10 anyway, only for toolbars Feb 03 14:26:42 barq, how do you verify the leak? Feb 03 14:27:05 Analyse the heap after manually triggering a GC Feb 03 14:27:18 Or use LeakCanary Feb 03 14:27:34 so much effort, I'm demotivated to hack it Feb 03 14:38:52 hey guys, what do you do when the debugger won't get to a breakpoint before starting the MainActivity? Feb 03 14:39:49 Twirl, you mean your class reaches that point before the debugger is attached? Feb 03 14:43:26 now with parse gone, what's easiest (and best) way to send push notifications to "groups" of users in an app? Feb 03 14:43:36 parse made subscribing to groups very easy Feb 03 14:44:23 GCM and managing groups manually Feb 03 14:44:38 btw whats the reason for parse being gone? Feb 03 14:44:45 what's parse Feb 03 14:45:06 Zharf, nothing anymore :p Feb 03 14:45:12 what was parse Feb 03 14:45:55 a thrid party service for pushing messages and sharing data accross devices Feb 03 14:46:06 and cloud backend for apps Feb 03 14:46:45 danijoo: can it handle a ton of groups? in parse's example, they had a sports app that had a group for every game Feb 03 14:46:55 so you could subscribe to notifications for the specific game Feb 03 14:47:08 dcope, WhatsApp uses GCM. ;) Feb 03 14:47:34 well that answers that question then :D Feb 03 14:47:38 ^^ Feb 03 14:51:24 oh, gcm can work on ios too? Feb 03 14:51:26 interesting Feb 03 14:53:11 Why can I only query for google fit historyApi data from january 15th 2016 till now? With the google fit app I can manually check back until the begining of 2015... Feb 03 14:53:13 I have a gradle script generated by android studio. If I run gradlew installDebug then the application successfully installs on my device. If I run gradlew assembleRelease and then copy the -release-unsigned apk onto my phone I get a Parse Error. What's the correct way to create an apk with the gradle script? Feb 03 14:54:00 SleepyPikachu, http://imgur.com/jacoj Feb 03 14:54:16 * Zharf sighs Feb 03 14:55:11 Has someone here had similar problems with google fit? Feb 03 14:55:22 danijoo: *laughs* Sorry, the parse error is presented by the android OS it just says "There was a problem while parsing the package." do you think I might be able to collect some more information with android monitor? Feb 03 14:55:47 I'm replacing fragment A with fragment B in a transaction, then I come back up the backstack to fragment A and go to fragment B again... parts of fragment A are still visible on the screen and they're bugged when I go back to fragment A -.- Feb 03 14:56:00 (parts of fragment A overlay fragment B that is) Feb 03 14:56:25 only device I've seen this on so far is samsung galaxy young though Feb 03 14:56:26 SleepyPikachu, no idea sorry Feb 03 14:56:33 danijoo: In verbose mode I see 'W/PackageInstaller: Parse error when parsing manifest. Discontinuing installation' but no stack trace, sadly. Feb 03 14:56:42 (api16) Feb 03 14:57:00 Zharf, are you sure you are using replace and not add Feb 03 14:57:05 yes Feb 03 14:57:13 all be sure to always use support manager Feb 03 14:57:16 yep Feb 03 14:57:25 blame samsung then :p Feb 03 14:57:34 yeah Feb 03 14:59:23 Samsung is the new Internet Explorer, if it works on samsung then it will work everywhere Feb 03 15:00:11 danijoo: Ok, further progress. I've produced the debug apk from gradle and this also installs sucessfully. Perhaps you simply can't uninstall an unsigned production apk? Feb 03 15:00:12 SleepyPikachu, paste all logcat of PackageInstaller and PackageManager Feb 03 15:00:33 of course you can't install unsigned apk Feb 03 15:01:07 SleepyPikachu, try to sign it and youll see. Feb 03 15:01:29 but in general it must be at least debug signed Feb 03 15:01:33 vegetab__, the problem is to get it to work on all samsung Feb 03 15:01:55 Hello guys Feb 03 15:02:54 pfn: http://pastebin.com/Vw3vMeLw Feb 03 15:03:16 SleepyPikachu, doesn't matter, unsigned apk cannot be installed Feb 03 15:03:30 pfn: danijoo: Ok, does the signing process normally take place with an unsigned apk? Feb 03 15:03:41 Otherwise I don't see why you'd be able to generate an unsigned apk at all Feb 03 15:04:53 SleepyPikachu, if you dont give gradle the signing infos, it cant sign Feb 03 15:05:00 debug apk is automatically signed with debug key Feb 03 15:05:01 some people do it manually Feb 03 15:05:53 danijoo: For sure but can I start with an unsigned apk and make a signed one? Feb 03 15:06:05 yes. by signing it.. Feb 03 15:06:59 I have the following situation, my app has like 10 fragments, but in 1 fragment I need a transparent AppBar. The problem is, I made it transparent but grabbing the AppBar and Toolbar objects and setAplha(0). The problem is, if I animate a view to the AppBar's position, the view is covered with the background. How can I have a transparent AppBar such that a view won't be covered if I put it in the same position? Feb 03 15:07:18 danijoo: It's alien to me, it's strange to be able to sign a binary after the fact. I've now found the docs on how to sign the apk after generation. Thanks to you and pfn for your help, you're both super helpful. :-) Feb 03 15:19:43 danijoo, more fun, the artifacts aren't visible in view hierarchy dump Feb 03 15:19:51 signing a binary always occurs after the fact Feb 03 15:19:58 for every system, SleepyPikachu Feb 03 15:20:06 danijoo, well, they're visible on the screenshot but not in the tree Feb 03 15:34:02 danijoo, I fixed it by hiding the elements that cause the artifacts in onPause and show them again in onResume Feb 03 15:34:08 * Zharf sighs at samsung Feb 03 15:37:19 Hi, may someone explain the accepted answer in this thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8479833/cursoradapter-with-different-row-layouts Feb 03 15:38:08 the method getItemViewType never gets called from the newView method Feb 03 15:42:45 anyone? Feb 03 15:47:45 looking for some direction here: I created a membership card passbook that is delivered via a backend for iOS, the client is wanting to also support Android. I see google wallet, google pay, samsung wallet, do any of these have the capability of ios Passbook membership card? Feb 03 15:48:34 Is there a way to update the local google fit history cache? Feb 03 16:12:57 how can I include prebuilt c libs (e.g. libcurl) and use them in my cpp code? I'm using gradle plugin 0.6.0-alpha6 and gradle 2.10, and you can check the repo here: https://github.com/jsvgoncalves/jni-webrest Feb 03 16:34:39 how can I include prebuilt c libs (e.g. libcurl) and use them in my cpp code? I'm using gradle plugin 0.6.0-alpha6 and gradle 2.10, and you can check the repo here: https://github.com/jsvgoncalves/jni-webrest Feb 03 16:35:19 for the record I do not what to use them in my java code, only in my native code Feb 03 16:37:40 I created a class so i can have objects represent a particular data structure (4 strings, 1 int). Seems clean but are there any other alternative? I dont think i can use hashmap as there's an int Feb 03 16:38:06 Hello is this #android-dev? Trying to connect using an IRC client Feb 03 16:39:00 maybe Feb 03 16:39:19 I'm getting a strange problem with my CoordinatorLayout.Behavior implementation. If I overload onNestedPrescroll() and make the child view to move upwards consuming the scroll of the target view, in the moment I don't consume because I don't want to move the child view past a certain point, this child view gets placed again in the starting position and back to the new position again in a very short period of time, Feb 03 16:39:19 sometimes leaving this child view in the starting position instead of the new.
