**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Sep 07 02:59:57 2008
Sep 07 04:31:02 <squeakypants> umm
Sep 07 04:31:20 <squeakypants> anyone know how to use SQLiteDatabase.replace?
Sep 07 04:31:34 <squeakypants> it doesn't have any way to select what row to replace?
Sep 07 04:31:52 <squeakypants> and the javadoc isn't right, it's a copy and paste of insert
Sep 07 04:34:04 <squeakypants> aha, i should use update, not replace
Sep 07 05:27:42 <plusminus_> anyone got MockLocation-Providing working?
Sep 07 06:58:21 <squeakypants> if i have files in my app
Sep 07 06:58:48 <squeakypants> (in /data/<package>/files/)
Sep 07 06:59:10 <squeakypants> is there a way to include an "original" in the apk?
Sep 07 07:03:00 <romainguy> files in /data are generated by the app
Sep 07 07:03:13 <romainguy> if you want to put a file in the apk, just put it in the assets/ directory
Sep 07 07:36:27 <muthu> yo
Sep 07 07:36:52 <muthu> when exactly the market launches?
Sep 07 07:39:20 <squeakypants> romainguy: aha, thank you :)
Sep 07 07:39:38 <squeakypants> muthu: my guess is october 13th when the g1 (supposedly) comes out
Sep 07 07:39:54 <muthu> yeah, somewhere around that date
Sep 07 07:40:06 <squeakypants> damn, the preorder is in 10 days
Sep 07 07:40:12 <squeakypants> i need to get $150 :P
Sep 07 07:40:25 <muthu> i can only sit and watch

Sep 07 07:43:20 <squeakypants> heh, i don't see why
Sep 07 07:43:36 <muthu> yup
Sep 07 07:43:43 <squeakypants> the american economy is balls
Sep 07 07:43:51 <squeakypants> don't even think of coming here if mccain gets elected :P
Sep 07 07:43:53 <muthu> its not about the economy
Sep 07 07:43:56 <muthu> haha
Sep 07 07:44:02 <squeakypants> well if it's about the phones :P
Sep 07 07:44:02 <muthu> mccain will ban immigrants!!
Sep 07 07:44:13 <squeakypants> europe's phones are so much better
Sep 07 07:44:18 <squeakypants> i was checking out t-mobile UK
Sep 07 07:44:19 <muthu> i'm counting on obama to let me in :))
Sep 07 07:44:35 <squeakypants> their free phones were iphone-likes
Sep 07 07:44:48 <muthu> yeah, europe rocks
Sep 07 07:44:52 <muthu> amsterdam
Sep 07 07:44:57 <muthu> want to go there
Sep 07 07:44:58 <squeakypants> the best phone t-mobile even offers is the Wing which is an awful WM6 phone that costs $300
Sep 07 07:45:00 <squeakypants> do it :)
Sep 07 07:45:06 <squeakypants> i'd love to go to amsterdam
Sep 07 07:45:27 <muthu> i love us becoz i'm familiar
Sep 07 07:45:31 <muthu> with the US system
Sep 07 07:45:36 <squeakypants> system?
Sep 07 07:45:46 <muthu> yeah, whatever
Sep 07 07:46:04 <muthu> and have friends there
Sep 07 07:46:13 <squeakypants> i've never been outside NJ for longer than a week or so :P and not in a long time
Sep 07 07:46:14 <muthu> and you have siliconey valley
Sep 07 07:46:26 <muthu> squeakypants: i can see that.. hehe
Sep 07 07:46:28 <squeakypants> and i'd move to europe or eastern asia in a second :)
Sep 07 07:46:42 <squeakypants> though being in NJ might be part of why i feel like that :P
Sep 07 07:46:55 <muthu> NJ country side is lovely
Sep 07 07:47:17 <muthu> i remember driving through NJ
Sep 07 07:47:23 <muthu> man!!
Sep 07 07:47:27 <muthu> memoirs
Sep 07 07:47:31 <squeakypants> really?
Sep 07 07:47:39 <squeakypants> well i'm in south jersey where it's all suburbs :-/
Sep 07 07:47:42 <muthu> was in bridgeport, doing my masters
Sep 07 07:48:09 <muthu> at that time, it was all lovely
Sep 07 07:48:18 <muthu> US was innocent and fun
Sep 07 07:48:22 <muthu> not like today
Sep 07 07:48:22 <squeakypants> when was that?
Sep 07 07:48:27 <muthu> 96
Sep 07 07:48:40 <squeakypants> daamn :P
Sep 07 07:48:48 <muthu> yup
Sep 07 07:48:51 <muthu> its surreal
Sep 07 07:49:23 <muthu> and how things changed!!
Sep 07 07:50:05 <squeakypants> before we had a landscape, now our main attraction is a linux phone :P
Sep 07 07:50:21 <muthu> haha
Sep 07 07:50:56 <squeakypants> so what kind of android apps have you worked on?
Sep 07 07:51:13 <muthu> let me give you the url
Sep 07 07:51:28 <muthu> http://code.google.com/android/adc_gallery/
Sep 07 07:51:41 <muthu> now i'm working on a kickass search engine
Sep 07 07:52:59 <squeakypants> you won?
Sep 07 07:53:05 <squeakypants> which is yours?
Sep 07 07:53:19 <muthu> cooking
Sep 07 07:53:34 <squeakypants> damn man, congrats!!
Sep 07 07:53:40 <muthu> thanks man
Sep 07 07:54:20 <muthu> i'm going to lock myself the next 15 days
Sep 07 07:55:12 <squeakypants> what do you mean?
Sep 07 07:55:24 <muthu> and get mobeegal kick ass
Sep 07 07:55:24 <squeakypants> also, where do these "cooking shows" come from?
Sep 07 07:55:29 <muthu> and be ready for the launch
Sep 07 07:55:36 <muthu> the shows are produced
Sep 07 07:55:40 <muthu> by a professional crew
Sep 07 07:56:01 <squeakypants> that you hired?
Sep 07 07:56:09 <muthu> not me
Sep 07 07:56:14 <muthu> i'm part of a big team
Sep 07 07:56:22 <squeakypants> gotcha
Sep 07 07:56:31 <squeakypants> wow though... i assume this isn't gonna be a free program? :P
Sep 07 07:56:44 <muthu> not sure
Sep 07 07:56:51 <muthu> may not b
Sep 07 07:58:29 <squeakypants> i've gtg, good talking to you ;)
Sep 07 07:58:36 <muthu> bye
Sep 07 08:04:14 <Adamant> dude, get out of NJ
Sep 07 08:04:29 <Adamant> I'd hate America too if I lived there
Sep 07 08:41:54 <_avatar> can someone tell me the syntax to use android.R.drawable.divider_horizontal_bright as the background in a view? if it were in my drawable directory i could use android:background="@drawable/whatever"
Sep 07 08:43:42 <_avatar> (in an xml layout, not using java)
Sep 07 08:44:06 <romainguy> @android:drawable/whatever
Sep 07 08:44:09 <anno^da_> src = "@drawable/..."
Sep 07 08:44:21 <anno^da_> ah yeah romainguy is correct
Sep 07 08:44:37 <_avatar> thats it, thanks romainguy. i've seen it before, but couldn't find it :)
Sep 07 08:53:48 <_avatar> ok, so it works, but divider_horizontal_bright/dark doesn't seem to be what i'm looking for. i'm trying to find the default listview separator drawable. does this exist as an accessable resource?
Sep 07 08:54:50 <romainguy> separator or divider?
Sep 07 08:56:37 <_avatar> what's the difference? what i'm looking for is the single pixel gradient that separates listview items.
Sep 07 08:57:06 <romainguy> it's the divider
Sep 07 08:57:39 <_avatar> out of curiosity, what is the separator?
Sep 07 08:59:15 <romainguy_> anyway, @drawable/divider_horizontal_dark is what you're looking for
Sep 07 08:59:22 <romainguy_> I mean, @android:...
Sep 07 09:02:41 <_avatar> hrm, that one doesn't seem to draw for me (although the code compiles and runs). i tried a couple other random drawables (i.e. @android:drawable/btn_star) and they showed up fine.
Sep 07 09:03:49 <_avatar> <View android:background="@android:drawable/divider_horizontal_dark" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
Sep 07 09:09:24 <muthu> may be it shows up
Sep 07 09:11:20 <_avatar> but... it doesn't :P
Sep 07 09:25:55 <_avatar> muthu: you were right, hehe
Sep 07 09:26:16 <muthu> hehe
Sep 07 09:26:24 <_avatar> it was nearly invisible on the background / color combination i was using
Sep 07 10:15:02 <muthu> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEU_qyiQmYQ
Sep 07 10:31:49 <umdk1d3> o.o
Sep 07 10:31:55 <umdk1d3> im doin something wrong maybe
Sep 07 10:32:02 <umdk1d3> 09-07 04:30:07.231: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(2641): java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget
Sep 07 10:32:08 <umdk1d3> on a mapactivity
Sep 07 14:27:16 <umdk1d4> hmm
Sep 07 14:27:23 <umdk1d4> i keep seeing this error after awhile
Sep 07 14:27:23 <umdk1d4> 09-07 08:25:26.522: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(17397): java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget
Sep 07 14:27:39 <umdk1d4> coming from 09-07 08:25:26.522: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(17397):     at android.view.View.buildDrawingCache(View.java:5219)
Sep 07 14:28:16 <umdk1d4> ahh i think i might know why
Sep 07 15:11:10 <anno^da_> gm
Sep 07 15:17:13 <muthu> http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/8/google-dreaming-of-50-billion-mobile-ad-market
Sep 07 15:40:32 <anno^da_> something against the chrome hype: http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/roadmap/
Sep 07 15:42:50 <anno^da_> I'm curious if the mass media will recognize these facts besides marketing buzz. I'm pretty sure they will not. :-)
Sep 07 17:45:04 <romainguy> anno^da_: these tests are unfortunately meaningless because they don't take into account the DOM, which is very slow in Firefox compared to Webkit
Sep 07 17:46:49 <anno^da_> Yeah that is true. But even so I dont understand the hype.
Sep 07 17:48:04 <anno^da_> @ rapidology
Sep 07 17:48:07 <anno^da_> oops
Sep 07 17:48:09 <anno^da_> romainguy
Sep 07 17:48:10 <anno^da_> :)
Sep 07 17:48:25 <umdk1d4> hype would be the word to describe it imho
Sep 07 17:48:40 <umdk1d4> i was suprised how all the major outlets ran with it
Sep 07 17:48:54 <anno^da_> I was suprised how the mass media reacted
Sep 07 17:49:26 <umdk1d4> lol and everyone was like "they are bringing chrome /to/ android" which was saying chrome was the good news
Sep 07 17:49:46 <umdk1d4> i wonder if the android people working on getting gears in android contributed the other direction to help chrome
Sep 07 17:51:20 <squeakyp> umdk1d4: yeah, i was confused by that too
Sep 07 17:52:11 <squeakyp> gears is cool, but "chrome on android" isn't a big deal
Sep 07 17:54:17 <anno^da_> Well but gears (and the web apps in) cant offer what a Thunderbird for example can. I dont know I cant replace my normal desktop apps with web apps atm.
Sep 07 17:54:53 <anno^da_> In the future they will be able to do that but in the end they will be desktop apps again.
Sep 07 17:55:11 <anno^da_> a browser is a desktop app. :)
Sep 07 17:57:53 <anno^da_> I dont know the term desktop and web app is fluent.
Sep 07 17:57:53 <squeakyp> anno^da: well it's just they make it seem like chrome has a bunch to offer
Sep 07 17:58:10 <squeakyp> it's a good backend, but the frontend is nothing special
Sep 07 17:58:22 <squeakyp> and the frontend will change completely when it goes mobile
Sep 07 17:58:31 <squeakyp> just like safari did on the iphone
Sep 07 17:58:33 <romainguy> anno^da_: it's not hype
Sep 07 17:58:42 <anno^da_> romainguy: What is it ?
Sep 07 17:58:56 <anno^da_> romainguy: chrome cant offer myself anything new.
Sep 07 17:59:09 <anno^da_> ok the tabs in different processes.
Sep 07 17:59:26 <romainguy> hype is the extreme promotion of a product
Sep 07 17:59:30 <squeakyp> anno^da_: if it's as efficient as they say it is (like the tab processes) then it's still a good thing
Sep 07 17:59:32 <romainguy> we certainly did not do that
Sep 07 17:59:36 <romainguy> we just released it
Sep 07 17:59:57 <squeakyp> romainguy: we? are you a google employee?
Sep 07 17:59:58 <romainguy> so it can be something else if you want, but it's not hype
Sep 07 18:00:04 <anno^da_> romainguy: I havent blamed google for producing a hype.
Sep 07 18:00:06 <romainguy> squeakyp: I work on Andorid
Sep 07 18:00:15 <squeakyp> romainguy: oh nice
Sep 07 18:00:18 <anno^da_> It is the mass media that hyped the product.
Sep 07 18:00:19 * squeakyp gets one knees
Sep 07 18:00:28 <squeakyp> WE'RE NOT WORTHY! WE'RE NOT WORTHY!
Sep 07 18:00:35 <SanMehat> lol
Sep 07 18:00:36 <SanMehat> romainguy: :)
Sep 07 18:00:50 <anno^da_> And that is something I dont understand. Why do the mass media hype a beta product with a lots of security flaws?
Sep 07 18:01:01 <squeakyp> anno^da: i wouldn't really call it hype
Sep 07 18:01:13 <romainguy> anno^da_: now you're fudding, lots of security flaw is an overstatement
Sep 07 18:01:15 <anno^da_> Well if the biggest tv stations review the browser it is a hype.
Sep 07 18:01:46 <SanMehat> ugh fuck i hate being sick
Sep 07 18:01:48 <romainguy> anno^da_: it seems Chrome is not for you, and that's fine :) just don't use it
Sep 07 18:01:52 <romainguy> SanMehat: still?
Sep 07 18:01:54 <squeakyp> anno^da: but the media is looking for iphone-like stories, and since chrome got so big so fast, they figured it was a good deal
Sep 07 18:01:55 <SanMehat> yeah
Sep 07 18:01:57 <SanMehat> still have a fever
Sep 07 18:01:58 <SanMehat> :(
Sep 07 18:02:12 <SanMehat> going to doc but might be pneumonia
Sep 07 18:02:23 <squeakyp> sanmehat: ah sucks
Sep 07 18:02:32 <romainguy> SanMehat: you chose the hottest week to get a pneumonia?
Sep 07 18:02:46 <SanMehat> romainguy: i know.. i'm dying in my apartment... its like 40c in here
Sep 07 18:02:53 <romainguy> same here
Sep 07 18:03:06 <swetland> what in the world is it with the weather
Sep 07 18:03:10 <SanMehat> swetland
Sep 07 18:03:17 <SanMehat> I'm dying
Sep 07 18:03:20 <swetland> it's frickin' september. should not be miserably hot.
Sep 07 18:03:43 <swetland> dying not allowed. go see your doctor.
Sep 07 18:03:49 <SanMehat> yes sir!
Sep 07 18:03:56 <Miek> it's certainly not hot here :(
Sep 07 18:04:07 <SanMehat> Miek: i'll trade you
Sep 07 18:04:08 <anno^da_> romainguy: Well I'm using some browsers side by side so I'm just testing. And trying to understand the mass medias reaction. :-)
Sep 07 18:04:43 <Miek> SanMehat: are you sure? we've got floods in places
Sep 07 18:04:54 <SanMehat> Miek: where is that?
Sep 07 18:04:56 <romainguy> anno^da_: see it this way: it's a browser that does only that, browsing, it's light, relatively fast and Google branded
Sep 07 18:05:01 <Miek> uk
Sep 07 18:05:03 <romainguy> so yes, it appeals to people :)
Sep 07 18:05:20 <romainguy> <sigh>
Sep 07 18:05:21 <squeakyp> heh, i do find it odd that it's got such an animated, fluid GUI
Sep 07 18:05:31 <romainguy> 1 hour till I surrender my computer
Sep 07 18:05:34 <squeakyp> doesn't that hurt efficiency?
Sep 07 18:05:36 <anno^da_> ok well. :)
Sep 07 18:05:37 <romainguy> Spore is coming out today
Sep 07 18:05:42 <squeakyp> ah right
Sep 07 18:05:45 <romainguy> squeakyp: no, not when the animations are kept short
Sep 07 18:05:50 <anno^da_> romainguy: Do you know if it will get a cocoa interface for OSX ?
Sep 07 18:05:53 <squeakyp> i already killed a pc with another game a week ago :P
Sep 07 18:06:00 <Miek> it wasn't out already?
Sep 07 18:06:03 <romainguy> squeakyp: animations actually help a lot getting a sense of what happens
Sep 07 18:06:04 * Miek whistles
Sep 07 18:06:10 <squeakyp> Miek: just leaks
Sep 07 18:06:28 <romainguy> Miek: I have the misfortune to buy all the games I play
Sep 07 18:06:37 <romainguy> or in this case, that my girlfriend plays
Sep 07 18:06:47 <squeakyp> anno^da_: just like itunes got a windows interface? :)
Sep 07 18:07:03 <squeakyp> romainguy: heh, nice
Sep 07 18:07:05 <Eli_> is this the official android channel?
Sep 07 18:07:20 <squeakyp> Eli_: nope, this is alcoholics anonymous
Sep 07 18:07:21 <Eli_> i would think there would be more users in here
Sep 07 18:07:31 <romainguy> squeakyp: at least I'll get the PS3 back that she was holding onto to play Civilization
Sep 07 18:07:31 <Eli_> Official or unofficial
Sep 07 18:07:40 <Miek> i will buy it too, they deserve it :)
Sep 07 18:07:45 <squeakyp> eli_: official
Sep 07 18:08:34 <squeakyp> romainguy: nice! i need a 360... the ds version has no civilopedia so everything that was different from civ4 totally confused me
Sep 07 18:08:56 <Eli_> I read a rumor about an announcement today, any word?
Sep 07 18:09:21 <squeakyp> eli_: today? i didn't hear of anything
Sep 07 18:09:33 <squeakyp> gaaah why am i squeakyp?
Sep 07 18:09:39 <Eli_> yeah the 7th i read
Sep 07 18:09:49 <Eli_> maybe it was 17th
Sep 07 18:09:55 <squeakypants> yeah
Sep 07 18:10:20 <squeakypants> 17th is when the (rumored) G1s go on preorder
Sep 07 18:10:53 <squeakypants> who here is gonna get a G1?
Sep 07 18:11:35 <anno^da_> If it works in european networks I will import one :)
Sep 07 18:11:59 <squeakypants> where you located?
Sep 07 18:12:21 <anno^da_> in Germany
Sep 07 18:13:48 <squeakypants> heh, you can just get an iphone :P
Sep 07 18:13:57 <anno^da_> help
Sep 07 18:13:58 <anno^da_> :)
Sep 07 18:14:14 <Miek> i just want to get android running on my kaiser
Sep 07 18:14:26 <anno^da_> Well no I dont want to get one with a contract at the moment.
Sep 07 18:14:42 <squeakypants> i don't think they're selling the g1 w/o one either :P
Sep 07 18:14:49 <anno^da_> So I'm leaving now. Have a nice sunday gusy.
Sep 07 18:14:56 <anno^da_> squeakypants: Well we will see.
Sep 07 18:15:11 <anno^da_> In the US the wont sell it w/o contract that is true.
Sep 07 18:15:11 <squeakypants> cya
Sep 07 18:15:32 <squeakypants> miek: aren't there ways already? though it's not a complete OS yet
Sep 07 18:15:58 <anno^da_> Well ok I could get an iPhone wo contract in France since they have to offer it without contract there.
Sep 07 18:16:08 <squeakypants> why?
Sep 07 18:16:22 <anno^da_> Beacuse of the laws there.
Sep 07 18:16:22 <romainguy_> French laws
Sep 07 18:16:48 <anno^da_> Yeah but it is common practice in Europe to sell phones wo contract.

Sep 07 18:17:24 <anno^da_> bye
Sep 07 18:17:31 <anno^da_> romainguy: true.
Sep 07 18:17:53 <anno^da_> You go in a store buy a sim card put it into your phone and thats it. :-)
Sep 07 18:17:58 <squeakypants> yeah, well the economy in europe isn't godawful like it is here
Sep 07 18:18:33 <squeakypants> anno^da_: lol every time i talk to someone from europe i want to move more :)
Sep 07 18:18:52 <anno^da_> haha well not everything is better here over.
Sep 07 18:19:19 <anno^da_> But you dont have to leave your fingerprints when you enter Germany ;)
Sep 07 18:19:19 <squeakypants> like what?
Sep 07 18:19:25 <squeakypants> lol

Sep 07 18:19:59 <anno^da_> I am no criminial and I dont want to be treated as such.
Sep 07 18:21:17 <anno^da_> But ok there are a lot of things that I dont understand in that field and that could be a very intersting discussion since I just know the european view.
Sep 07 18:21:45 <anno^da_> But today I have to leave. Playing tennis in 20 minutes. :-) So bye.
Sep 07 19:06:39 <squeakypants> romainguy_: putting the file in assets didn't work :'(
Sep 07 19:08:06 <romainguy> what doesn't work?
Sep 07 19:08:58 <squeakypants> if i do
Sep 07 19:10:08 <squeakypants> WHAT THE FUCKKKK
Sep 07 19:10:29 <squeakypants> my code didn't save?????
Sep 07 19:10:55 <squeakypants> oh thank god, it did... lol that scared me...
Sep 07 19:12:01 <squeakypants> if i do openFileOutput("nums", 0)
Sep 07 19:12:12 <squeakypants> or openFileInput("nums")
Sep 07 19:12:29 <squeakypants> where can i put that file so that it's in the apk?
Sep 07 19:12:49 <romainguy> squeakypants: I don't understand what you're trying to do
Sep 07 19:13:39 <squeakypants> openFileInput("nums") opens the file "nums" local to the app
Sep 07 19:13:48 <romainguy> are you trying to write a file inside the .apk while your app is running?
Sep 07 19:14:18 <squeakypants> no, i want to have a file but placed there at install
Sep 07 19:14:29 <romainguy> placed where?
Sep 07 19:14:30 <squeakypants> *be
Sep 07 19:14:48 <squeakypants>  /data/<package>/files/
Sep 07 19:14:53 <romainguy> ok
Sep 07 19:15:05 <squeakypants> i tried the "assets" folder to no avail
Sep 07 19:15:27 <romainguy_> what do you mean you tried the folder?
Sep 07 19:15:29 <romainguy_> what did you do?
Sep 07 19:15:41 <squeakypants> put the "nums" file in it
Sep 07 19:16:04 <romainguy_> and then what did you do?
Sep 07 19:16:13 <romainguy_> that's it, you just put it there?
Sep 07 19:16:18 <squeakypants> heh, yeah
Sep 07 19:16:33 <romainguy_> ...
Sep 07 19:16:37 <romainguy_> you have to copy the file yourself :)
Sep 07 19:16:47 <squeakypants> what, like in the code?
Sep 07 19:16:48 <romainguy_> with the file in assets, it won't be processed by the resources compiler
Sep 07 19:16:51 <romainguy_> yes
Sep 07 19:16:59 <squeakypants> how do i do that?
Sep 07 19:17:05 <romainguy_> then you can use openRawResource to read the file and copy it into /data/...
Sep 07 19:17:17 <squeakypants> is that the only way?
Sep 07 19:17:51 <romainguy> yes
Sep 07 19:18:55 <squeakypants> okay so just
Sep 07 19:19:05 <squeakypants> in onCreate
Sep 07 19:19:15 <squeakypants> test if the file exists, if not copy it from assets?
Sep 07 19:19:34 <romainguy> yes
Sep 07 19:19:38 <romainguy> but why do you want to do it?
Sep 07 19:19:49 <romainguy> why do you need to copy a file you already have?
Sep 07 19:20:04 <squeakypants> ...
Sep 07 19:20:36 <squeakypants> well resources are read-only, so i used openFileInput
Sep 07 19:21:01 <squeakypants> but there's nothing there :P
Sep 07 19:21:06 <romainguy> yes but why does the file contain that you can't entirely generate from your code?
Sep 07 19:21:29 <squeakypants> i can generate it from my code :P i just though i could preload it manually in the package
Sep 07 19:24:08 <squeakypants> thanks :)
Sep 07 21:40:56 <umdk1d4> hmm
Sep 07 21:45:49 <plusminus_> you know this picture: BatMan vs Joker. > http://href.to/Nin
Sep 07 21:46:01 <plusminus_> it makes my day at work :-D
Sep 07 21:47:56 <umdk1d4> i cant seem to set the strikethrough stroke width  :/
Sep 07 21:49:02 <plusminus_> up to now I have never seen any app where it was possible...
Sep 07 21:49:44 <umdk1d4> setStrikeThruText(boolean strikeThruText)
Sep 07 21:49:57 <umdk1d4> works great, but is fixed width line strikethrough
Sep 07 21:50:11 <umdk1d4> that function is in TextView
Sep 07 21:50:19 <umdk1d4> ohwait in the Paint
Sep 07 21:50:34 <umdk1d4> ive been usign   title.setPaintFlags(title.getPaintFlags() | Paint.STRIKE_THRU_TEXT_FLAG);
Sep 07 23:00:31 <jota-> is there a view suitable for displaying trees in android?
Sep 08 00:27:18 <Dougie187> okokok.. so whats this about the "best buy" unlocked htc touch thing?
Sep 08 00:34:49 <gdsx> Dougie187: we likely can't say anything.  Do you have a reference, though? (I'm curious)
Sep 08 00:35:06 <Dougie187> http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8986617&type=product&id=1218005636408
Sep 08 00:35:11 <Dougie187> http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/07/best-buy-preps-unlocked-touch-diamond-for-retail/
Sep 08 00:37:31 <Dougie187> freaking 700 bucks though,
Sep 08 00:48:30 <squeakypants> dougie187: hahaha wow
Sep 08 00:48:41 <Dougie187> weird huh?
Sep 08 02:30:25 <plusminus_> hey guys
Sep 08 02:32:11 <plusminus_> to me it seems like a bug, that on the HOME-Screen the labeltext below the icons is taken from the <activity> with MAIN/LAUNCHER-Action/Category instead of the android:label value of the <application>-tag
Sep 08 02:33:04 <plusminus_> if I am wrong, what the is the android:label in the <application>-tag good for ß
Sep 08 02:33:41 <plusminus_> ?
