**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Sep 19 02:59:59 2013 Sep 19 03:01:31 Can someone please guide me along making an adapter for a ListView? Adapter#getView should return a Switch toggle which needs to have one value associated with it. There should be one toggle for each contact. Sep 19 03:02:19 This is my code so far: http://pastebin.com/Hpx863ii Sep 19 03:12:30 <^cheeky> Bitwise: final Switch s = convertView == null ? new Switch(parent.getContext()) : (Switch) convertView; ? Sep 19 03:12:54 ^cheeky, Creates a new Switch toggle element if it doesn't already exist. Sep 19 03:13:49 <^cheeky> Switch .. hmm new to me Sep 19 03:14:06 It's just an on/off toggle Sep 19 03:14:19 <^cheeky> so in your layout for the switch you are creating programatically then ? Sep 19 03:14:37 Yes, I'm not sure how else to do it. Sep 19 03:16:17 <^cheeky> you could try creating a custom view for each item, in your list and use an adapter to be the bridge between the activity and thedata model Sep 19 03:18:49 <^cheeky> bbl or brb ,, need food Sep 19 03:21:29 <^cheeky> Bitwise: i not really sure, but usually you create a layout file for an item in your list, then you inflate it in getView then wire it up that way, but there are people here who def no whats correct Sep 19 03:21:34 <^cheeky> going to eat Sep 19 03:21:54 Ahh, thank you. :-) Sep 19 03:25:56 <^cheeky> Bitwise: errm .. didnt do anything nor it didnt even work .. i am using a listview to i can show code if you want and you can ask questions, i can answer with what ever knowledge i have. Sep 19 03:45:27 make otapackage -j16 error Debian Jessie http://ubuntuone.com/45oVizBM2MkbizadvYxjCl Sep 19 03:56:12 bed ttyl Sep 19 04:02:10 Anyone know if the Tegra profiler works on non-tegra devices? Sep 19 04:03:29 ah, isn't nevermind Sep 19 04:14:18 hmm, does motoblur do something weird with button sizes? Sep 19 04:16:54 <^cheeky> pfn: i confused traceview, with hierarchy viewer : Sep 19 04:16:56 <^cheeky> :/ Sep 19 04:29:43 A Google User on Sep 18, 2013 at 1:50 PM Sep 19 04:29:44 Auto-translated from German Sep 19 04:29:44 Top IRC client with some new imei against AndChat Sep 19 04:29:51 weird, that's a new review, but it still shows up as google user... Sep 19 04:29:58 (review count went from 127 to 128) Sep 19 04:32:07 pfn, You need to get up to my level :P Sep 19 04:32:17 ? Sep 19 04:32:26 level of reviews Sep 19 04:32:38 <^cheeky> reviews .. where ? Sep 19 04:32:41 um, ok Sep 19 04:32:48 just playing of course Sep 19 04:35:49 <^cheeky> its so painful to code for android on a cor2dou chipset :/ Sep 19 04:35:52 <^cheeky> :( Sep 19 04:36:09 so time to upgrade pc Sep 19 04:36:10 ^cheeky, You're telling me, I'm coding on a AMD E450 Sep 19 04:36:22 It takes me a minute or two to recompile when changing one file Sep 19 04:37:19 <^cheeky> i mean eclipse is all right with it Sep 19 04:37:24 <^cheeky> buut , AS no way Sep 19 04:37:45 <^cheeky> doable but AVD , takes ages Sep 19 04:52:23 heh, even the Atom image for 4.2 is sluggish in an AVD on a fast system :) Sep 19 04:53:43 <^cheeky> i can be patient .. but on a laptop .. comp overheats and starts frying my thighs soo yay !!! Sep 19 04:54:04 that's why they tell you not to put them on your lap :P Sep 19 04:55:15 <^cheeky> hell of a oxyMoron that is heh Sep 19 04:58:13 Any idea why when I scroll up in my ListView with each row being a single Switch toggle element, the toggle reverts to off even though I'm 100% saving my settings? Sep 19 05:00:02 <^cheeky> Bitwise: where are you saving or adding it to bundl e Sep 19 05:03:48 ^cheeky, http://pastebin.com/qGZG28M1 Sep 19 05:05:59 they're not really laptops anymore, that's why they call them notebooks Sep 19 05:06:15 it's not really meant to sit on your lap Sep 19 05:11:22 <^cheeky> Bitwise: Switch holder is your one class? Sep 19 05:11:31 Yes. Sep 19 05:11:34 <^cheeky> you might need update your data Sep 19 05:11:45 <^cheeky> notifychange thingy Sep 19 05:11:49 <^cheeky> ahh brain fart Sep 19 05:11:53 <^cheeky> whats it called Sep 19 05:12:04 <^cheeky> onNotifyDatatsetChanged Sep 19 05:12:15 <^cheeky> possibly ? Sep 19 05:12:20 hit enter a few more times Sep 19 05:12:21 <^cheeky> you have a of finals Sep 19 05:25:04 hello Sep 19 05:37:52 blender 3d is lots of fun Sep 19 05:38:11 i tried to use it, but it was way over my head lol it did look very handy though Sep 19 05:39:05 bankai_ :) i asked them if anyone used it for 2d, but it doesn't seem to have anything like svg export (natively) … maybe some plugin somewhere ... Sep 19 05:39:44 i thought maybe i could use it for some android assets Sep 19 05:40:42 g00s: the print screen button ;) Sep 19 05:40:54 JesusFreke :D Sep 19 05:41:15 should be useful for 3d goblin background for my enterprise / scientific app :P Sep 19 05:41:41 but some of the stuff people make with it is pretty amazing Sep 19 05:42:01 JesusFreke how is smali 2.0 going :) Sep 19 05:42:44 released b6 over the weekend Sep 19 05:42:59 If nothing major comes up, it will probably be 2.0 final Sep 19 05:44:24 woohoo Sep 19 05:44:47 JesusFreke any fun / interesting challenges that you learned something new from ? Sep 19 05:45:43 hmm. I recently learned that I can play didgeridoo for an hour straight, but that I probably don't want to play for much longer than that. Sep 19 05:52:09 if anyone has iosched 2013 on their phone still… does it still work? i hacked it up to run on the emulator but it doesn't show any content in the tabs Sep 19 05:52:37 it doesn't run on my froyo device , hence the hacking to run on the emu with play services :P Sep 19 05:58:33 My friend and I are having a conversation and he's wondering if Android uses dbus Sep 19 06:00:06 hm, well i don't see a package for it in the repos Sep 19 06:00:28 but i may have overlooked something Sep 19 06:07:01 Android doesn't use dbus Sep 19 06:07:06 no reason to Sep 19 06:13:11 pfn: D-Bus was used in BT stack Sep 19 06:13:15 not sure if it's used anymore Sep 19 06:13:29 p_l, ah, I vaguely remember that Sep 19 06:14:52 g00s: I can see content in iosched'13 Sep 19 06:15:23 p_l oh, thanks … do you have google+ account ? Sep 19 06:15:34 g00s: yes Sep 19 06:15:43 thats what i removed from the app, i think thats where its pulling the feed / content from. Sep 19 06:15:45 stupid me Sep 19 06:15:50 p_l ok , thanks Sep 19 06:15:54 (since day one or two, actually :P) Sep 19 06:16:08 it was so simple last year, just an http request :( Sep 19 06:17:10 g00s: the "stream" tab in iosched used G+ Sep 19 06:17:40 hm, it doesn't seem to pull up any tracks, scheduled, classes, anything at all. Sep 19 06:17:42 and iirc aggregated g+ content tagged apropriately Sep 19 06:17:44 must all be tied to google+ Sep 19 06:17:49 ok Sep 19 06:17:50 g00s: or you broke something more :P Sep 19 06:17:59 heh, probably - also Sep 19 06:18:17 p_l thanks for checking Sep 19 06:24:23 <^cheeky> hello Sep 19 06:28:20 ^cheeky h .. e .. l .. l .. o :) Sep 19 06:29:19 <^cheeky> haha ok i get it i am sorry i guess i have a disability , or its just showing brain processing and there is bug that while processing i still do the .... Sep 19 06:32:14 <^cheeky> g00s: do you always use asnyc task classes or do you use handler and messages to do the threading Sep 19 06:32:48 i never use AsyncTask Sep 19 06:33:36 either HandlerThread, or more recently RxJava Sep 19 06:33:50 for those Future> situations ;) Sep 19 06:33:51 <^cheeky> why not ? if you don't mind me asking and i am really interested to know please Sep 19 06:34:28 <^cheeky> future list situations as in, Sep 19 06:35:18 well, here is the one and only place i would use it … when you need to do something off the main thread, in an activity, and it doesn't matter whether it finishes. like an async query from the db. so actually i use asynctask because i use loaders indirectly, but thats about it Sep 19 06:36:03 but , often things are more complicated, like you have to kick of async task #1 and feed the result to async task #2 - which is poor design Sep 19 06:36:08 ping-pong between threads Sep 19 06:36:23 thats when RxJava becomes useful Sep 19 06:36:34 in a service i just tend to use HandlerThread Sep 19 06:37:22 where i would not use it, is in an activity doing something that needs to happen … and the thread could outlive the activity Sep 19 06:37:53 but its more a theoretical concern, but i still avoid it Sep 19 06:40:38 <^cheeky> hmm .. so am i wrong in not using a handlerThread, to fetch urls ? Sep 19 06:40:49 you can use an IntentService Sep 19 06:41:03 those are nice, and … use HandlerThread under the hood ;) Sep 19 06:41:08 <^cheeky> thats my next lesson i am gonna read Sep 19 06:41:13 for more to read, see http://mttkay.github.io/blog/2013/08/25/functional-reactive-programming-on-android-with-rxjava/ Sep 19 06:41:53 <^cheeky> Writing concurrent programs (that are correct) is hard. :( Sep 19 06:42:54 i think android makes to more difficult; just the nature of complex lifecycles of all these components Sep 19 06:43:14 and having concurrent things happening / coordinating between them Sep 19 06:43:15 <^cheeky> and finally when i thought i was getting it Sep 19 06:43:39 maybe in android 5 they will get rid of all the callbacks :) Sep 19 06:43:42 begin() Sep 19 06:43:43 end() Sep 19 06:43:48 there you go ;) Sep 19 06:44:38 with phones having 2 - 4G memory, this crap simply isn't needed any more (throwing away each activity, etc). they need to move towards a more desktop-centric paradigm, like BB - apps starts, app ends - app can start daemon, or not Sep 19 06:45:02 the lifecycle for a BB app is extremely simple Sep 19 06:45:07 well, its basically like a desktop app Sep 19 06:45:36 <^cheeky> oh man i have to much to learn !!! Sep 19 06:45:40 <^cheeky> thank you Sep 19 06:45:40 but now we are working withing a framework designed around constraints of running java on devices with 256mb of memory Sep 19 06:47:13 ^cheeky read the link i gave, see AsyncTask part Sep 19 06:47:23 <^cheeky> i am reading it Sep 19 06:47:26 <^cheeky> :) Sep 19 06:47:58 if you do use asynctask, outside of loaders, do it this way http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3357477/is-asynctask-really-conceptually-flawed-or-am-i-just-missing-something Sep 19 06:48:04 see hackbod's answer, she knows :D Sep 19 06:48:41 its tricky to get right with screen rotations, etc. so be careful. at least go into knowing there be monsters there Sep 19 06:51:42 <^cheeky> i know there are monsters out there yet i am a fool, coz in my head i guess, umm some how want to learn it. its like me being a mermaid and wanting to walk on land ahhahahahaha Sep 19 06:51:55 ^cheeky lastly, read the code for AsyncQueryService in the Calendar code. its an interesting pattern Sep 19 06:51:58 <^cheeky> oh man it 3 am !!! Sep 19 06:52:24 <^cheeky> g00s: i will and thank your for the reads :) Sep 19 06:52:30 np Sep 19 06:53:06 when i started android in 2010, i think this channel had like 10 "how do i … asynctask … configuration change" questions per day Sep 19 06:53:12 i guess everybody igured it out :) Sep 19 06:53:22 or just locked their screens to one way haha Sep 19 06:53:36 or used loaders, since they remove lots of pain there Sep 19 06:54:03 now everybody is having problems with AS XD Sep 19 06:54:44 <^cheeky> As == Android studio Sep 19 06:55:17 yes Sep 19 06:55:55 <^cheeky> so far i haven't had any monster come out and devour me .. YET Sep 19 06:56:25 <^cheeky> with AS Sep 19 06:56:30 if you rotate your phone with you app running, that usually conjures up a monster Sep 19 06:56:46 <^cheeky> well actually my code works lol Sep 19 06:57:03 terrific ;) Sep 19 06:57:12 <^cheeky> i think :/ Sep 19 06:57:14 <^cheeky> :( Sep 19 07:00:50 hiho.. how can i listen for Preference clicks in a PreferenceFragment? Sep 19 07:02:08 <^cheeky> g00s: .. i know i am not paying your or anything but .. if you have time .. let me know if i am tarded, but my code works .. here just for my learning i used handerThread class and async ,my next move is to learn Intent services and loaders as you mentioned Sep 19 07:02:15 <^cheeky> g00s: http://pastebin.com/khJNtiTK Sep 19 07:02:19 i know there's onSharedPreferenceChanged to listen for changes but not to listen in "clicks" Sep 19 07:03:04 <^cheeky> some one else here told me some really valable info as well when learning this stuff, thank you for this # existing Sep 19 07:03:09 <^cheeky> and many others :) Sep 19 07:35:22 oh man, hit a hellacious bug in AS full screen on mac Sep 19 07:52:31 you mean iOS itself? thats a feature Sep 19 07:58:50 <^cheeky> g00s: whats the bug jamming up /? Sep 19 07:59:25 i'm just noticing a lot of UI bugs in AS Sep 19 07:59:37 this one is terrible , requires force quit Sep 19 07:59:49 If you start AS full screen mode, and then go to run your app Sep 19 07:59:50 <^cheeky> Eeeek Sep 19 07:59:59 this process takes a long time, maybe 10s of seconds Sep 19 08:00:09 <^cheeky> you mean in preview mode / Sep 19 08:00:09 <^cheeky> ? Sep 19 08:00:45 if you switch to another desktop, say the one with your emu bacuse you want to see your app :P then AS pops up a Device Chooser dialog on that desktop … but selecting it switches focus back to the full screen desktop - but THAT desktop is unresponsive Sep 19 08:01:17 so you can't interact with the device chooser or the full screen window Sep 19 08:01:19 force quit Sep 19 08:01:43 if you run, and just sit tight, and it shows the dialog in the same desktop as the full screen AS Sep 19 08:01:46 everything is fine Sep 19 08:01:55 kjeldahl still using emacs for android :P ? Sep 19 08:03:22 g00s: For straight up Android, yes. But I'm also working on a libgdx game and I haven't dared messing with the build process there yet, so for libgdx I'm still wearing the Eclipse diapers... :-) Sep 19 08:04:09 kjeldahl can you post the link to your blog post? i lost a bunch of bookmarks when i updated FF Sep 19 08:04:16 * ^cheeky wished he attained the knowledge thats been discussed here Sep 19 08:05:49 One of these? https://github.com/mariusk/android-with-emacs https://plus.google.com/107657528816470202239/posts/NrrjDbkVwGY http://kjeldahl.net/d7/node/34 Sep 19 08:06:33 kjeldahl yes, thanks Sep 19 08:06:34 github is/will be most current though Sep 19 08:07:16 my machine just doesn't have enough kutzpah to run AS with gradle, its way too slow Sep 19 08:08:00 * g00s is up the proverbial creek Sep 19 08:08:48 <^cheeky> system specs ? at least its not a core2dou :P Sep 19 08:09:10 Those Java IDEs are just weird. Why should restarting a compilation process take any time at all? When I do that in emacs, it just kills everything instantly and restarts. And lots of other stuff. But auto imports etc usually work better in the IDEs. BUT, those are mostly important in the beginning. Sep 19 08:09:18 <^cheeky> i wonder if it might be my hdd, but alas AVD would need more cores to make it buttery smoth Sep 19 08:09:21 <^cheeky> (smooth Sep 19 08:09:24 ^cheeky yeah i have a core2 duo Sep 19 08:09:30 <^cheeky> whaat no way Sep 19 08:09:32 4G ram Sep 19 08:09:53 <^cheeky> you bluffing :P Sep 19 08:10:10 no, 2009 Macbook Sep 19 08:10:39 i've thought about ditching textual for weechat for a measly 50mb ram Sep 19 08:10:48 its "tight" Sep 19 08:11:24 <^cheeky> Os fingerprintin Sep 19 08:11:36 ^cheeky genymotion on my POS is buttery smooth, its awesome Sep 19 08:12:13 kjeldahl yeah. we're spoiled with emacs / vim. i'm used to things happening instantly Sep 19 08:14:04 <^cheeky> people using vim/e-macs , really intrigues me, and have so much more respect for them, i am so spoilt with were introduced programming with , IDE such as eclipse textmate etc.. Sep 19 08:18:49 I remember being spoiled by Turbo Pascal 1.0 - the IDEs at the time were a LOT faster than the cmdline stuff. Today, not so much (IDEs mostly just call the cmdline stuff with lots of overhead). Sep 19 08:20:33 I find Eclipse a bit scary though; when stuff does not work correctly, one usually have to try a combination of "refresh" and restarting Eclipse, and often that just fixes thing. That's scary if you ask me. Sep 19 08:20:42 A non-deterministic build process. Sep 19 08:20:51 AS + gradle is the slowest thing i've ever seen. i feel like i'm using a commodore 64 and swapping disks to run GEOS Sep 19 08:21:32 yeah, Gradle is terribly slow Sep 19 08:21:54 when i run it from the command line in daemon mode its fine with me Sep 19 08:22:02 Regarding gradle; yeah, java and/or java-based build tools generally sucks bigtime, also for unknown reasons. Feels like we've learned nothing. Sep 19 08:22:29 but from AS … i wonder if AS is using gradle in daemon mode or not Sep 19 08:22:35 it feels like not Sep 19 08:22:45 kjeldahl yeah :*( Sep 19 08:29:39 is there something to set in AS so that i don't get a dialog each time i run asking what emu to use / start ? Sep 19 08:30:02 pretty much always running on the same emu Sep 19 08:34:57 ah yes, there it is Sep 19 08:36:30 there we go, had to select genymotion as device rather than emulator Sep 19 08:36:38 or i could have used their plugin, meh Sep 19 08:37:18 kjeldahl do you think emacs is keeping pace and evolving at a good enough pace ? Sep 19 08:37:50 i thought the 7.4 release of vim was lamesauce; so much baggage that needs to get fixed like even having a decent plugin manager Sep 19 08:38:00 although i use pathogen its ok Sep 19 08:38:46 try vundle Sep 19 08:39:01 Tim Pope is going to be mad Sep 19 08:39:06 :) Sep 19 08:39:12 g00s: Not really, but it's still miles ahead of most "alternatives". It could do with a backend refresh, but it's a BIG backend.. ;-) Sep 19 08:39:15 even weird bugs in netrw Sep 19 08:39:15 i dont think so 8-) Sep 19 08:40:09 g00s: Part of the reason it's struggling is that anything "java" mostly have to be "jacked in" to java stuff. Which it isn't of course. Not sure if that's a disease on the emacs or java side though. Sep 19 08:40:11 hi, i have made an application which using GPS location (like requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 30000 ... ) when i'm strarting that app, the requests are by 30 seconds, now when i'm starting another app which using GPS, interval now is smaller - by few seconds. How does that function works? Does it overwrite some Android OS's settings and make interval of last used app? Sep 19 08:42:07 ohcibi using vim for android ? Sep 19 08:42:51 g00s: no... i use eclipse for java stuff, and I hate that there is no easy way to use vim like key bindings in eclipse like it is in xcode Sep 19 08:44:07 There is a plugin for emacs that jacks into eclipse which I haven't tried yet, but it looks good. Uses the emacs autocomplete stuff in emacs, but it gets populated from calls to eclipse. Might be worth looking into. Sep 19 08:44:08 i can't run the latest xcode they put out today, but 4.6 was .. pretty nice Sep 19 08:44:20 hm i'm just installing it Sep 19 08:44:21 kjeldahl yeah the eclim one Sep 19 08:44:24 (probably not if your system is resource constrained like g00s' is) Sep 19 08:44:43 i hoped it ran eclipse headless in some smaller footprint mode Sep 19 08:44:51 but it seems to be a full on eclipse Sep 19 08:44:51 kjeldahl: well i dont want to restart the emacs-vim war, but i'm no emacs user, so this is not an option for me 8-)) Sep 19 08:44:53 ugh Sep 19 08:46:12 the thing with xcode it is its not using a vim-session which must somehow connect to xcode but adds vim-like keybindings directly to xcode... autocompletion with a dedicated IDE is way better than with vim itself and as long as i can move end edit as am used to its fine Sep 19 08:46:24 maybe i should get a VPS on digital ocean or something to push my gradle builds O.o Sep 19 08:46:49 i know of eclim and it looked intresting to have the eclipse autocompletion in vims autocompletion, but the setup was complicated and I didnt get it to work lateley.. Sep 19 08:47:05 oh no Sep 19 08:55:57 Yeah, the setup for emacs wasn't completely trivial either, so I haven't tested it myself either. Sep 19 09:06:54 heya peeps Sep 19 09:13:14 Anyone here know how I could access files within an APK ? The supplier of our App is being stupid and are seriously telling us they cant send us the eula file. We as a company can't have their EULA in our product. Sep 19 09:14:42 SrRaven-work, apk files are just zip files Sep 19 09:15:46 Ok, so they should be somewhere ? Sep 19 09:16:45 should be unless it is packed in to a file inside of it somewhere Sep 19 09:16:48 the eula isn't necessarily a file Sep 19 09:16:55 it might just be a hardcoded resource string Sep 19 09:17:21 pretty fascinating http://www.businessinsider.com/sex-and-politics-at-google-its-a-game-of-thrones-in-mountain-view-2013-9 Sep 19 09:18:03 dumb question,whats the best way to get the apk from the store? Sep 19 09:22:29 SrRaven-work, install the app, then copy the apk out of the installed apps folder to your sd card and get it off there Sep 19 09:22:35 you need root tho Sep 19 09:22:59 hmm,dont have root Sep 19 09:23:08 neither do all work phones (company policy) Sep 19 09:23:27 sux Sep 19 09:23:41 install it on a non-company phone that has root Sep 19 09:24:03 When company policy gets in the way of doing work, then just say so and let the people in charge of the policy deal with it. :-) Sep 19 09:24:31 kjeldahl is right about that; tech solutions to political problems are brittle Sep 19 09:31:41 raziel I will soon, I use a n4 so most times I dont even need root Sep 19 10:37:54 I'm trying to use nanohttpd in my android project in Eclipse but have no clue how to import it and use it in an existing project Sep 19 10:38:02 any hints? Sep 19 10:41:26 back and still waiting for some tips on how to use nanohttpd in an existing android project in Eclipse Sep 19 10:51:01 dokma: can't you use the built-in HttpServer package? Sep 19 10:51:25 or well, package is httpserver, class is HttpServer? I haven't checked if that's on android though Sep 19 10:51:57 from the source I've seen using that class it's just useless for me Sep 19 10:52:04 I need to do it in a few lines Sep 19 10:52:15 just receive a GET request and send an SMS Sep 19 10:52:24 and I have to do it today Sep 19 10:52:35 so I imported an external class folder Sep 19 10:52:42 and now I'm trying to use it Sep 19 10:53:46 useless? That is a bit harsh, but whatever. Sep 19 10:54:08 in general you drop a jar you wish to use in the libs directory under the project Sep 19 10:54:34 ADT is supposed to pick it up from there -- may need hitting F5 key to do it. I wouldn't embed foreign code as a class folder. Sep 19 10:54:43 the jar is just cleaner Sep 19 10:58:27 Heya guys - I have an asynctask, in its postexecute I call a response handler interface, from which I create a handler and hit a postDelayed Sep 19 10:58:32 well, that postDelayed never gets fired Sep 19 10:58:36 (The activity finishes in the meantime) Sep 19 10:58:41 could that be the cause? Sep 19 10:58:51 sounds probable Sep 19 10:59:03 sounds digestable. Sep 19 10:59:07 I think I am hungry. Sep 19 11:05:22 alankila, there are no jars in nanohttpd just a bunch of java files Sep 19 11:05:43 dokma: okay, if they don't have a distribution as jar then just copy the files into your project or whatever Sep 19 11:05:51 so I added an external class folder:/home/vlatko/workspace/nanohttpd/core/src/main/java/ Sep 19 11:06:14 ahhh... I see Sep 19 11:06:24 you could build a jar though if you like. It's just a zip with manifest and class files in it, and the jar command can create the default manifest Sep 19 11:07:04 though it's been a while since I built java sources by hand Sep 19 11:08:51 dokma: create a new directory e.g. vendor and add it as a source-folder... you dont need to compile and pack it as jar and you can even jump directly into the implementations of the methods youre using Sep 19 11:09:24 other way would be to add an extra project to your workspace which you can then reference in the build paths settings of your project, but thats out of my knowledge Sep 19 11:10:30 ohcibi, where do I add stuff as 'source folder' ?? Sep 19 11:10:42 dokma: right-click->build path->add as source Sep 19 11:10:44 it's a right click on the directory icon Sep 19 11:11:10 dokma: "Use as source folder" Sep 19 11:12:48 anyway the project is probably a maven project so you should be able to produce the jar using mvn too... Sep 19 11:12:49 <^cheeky> i have been up from yesterday Sep 19 11:12:57 <^cheeky> errm sorry Sep 19 11:12:58 though I don't know what the invocation is. I never use mvn. Sep 19 11:14:43 Hi everyone Sep 19 11:14:58 I'm trying to use a ToggleButton Sep 19 11:15:24 initially, I had a LinearLayout, vertical orientation, with one imageButton and a TextView Sep 19 11:15:40 I moved to a single toggle button Sep 19 11:15:44 and I have that working Sep 19 11:16:03 but only switching between two images Sep 19 11:16:19 I would like to have image+text on checked, and just image on unchecked Sep 19 11:16:26 how may I achieve this? Sep 19 11:16:51 the xml I have with the selector code doesn't seem to allow any additional parameters like Image, TextView blocks Sep 19 11:17:24 also, when switching to ToggleButton, the images become distorted - no "keep ratio" working Sep 19 11:17:59 where may I obtain more info on how to format the togglebutton content and add multiple elements there? Sep 19 11:20:38 how would I go about firing my handler despite the fact my application finished? Sep 19 11:20:45 my activity* Sep 19 11:20:58 make the handler static and destroy it in its runnable? Sep 19 11:23:05 What is that important work that the handler must do? And aren't you already in the UI thread, why can't you just do the work directly? Sep 19 11:24:47 It's kind of a hacky workaround for an issue with the internal api for my app. Sep 19 11:25:06 The thing is, I have to share an image to FB... that image has been uploaded in an earlier step to amazon's S3 and our internal servers Sep 19 11:25:38 now, amazon takes anywhere up to 15 seconds to process the image, so while I do have the URL of the image to share on FB, it's not necesarily available and the FB sdk throws a tantrum in that case Sep 19 11:25:57 so I simply wait for 15 seconds between the internal upload and the facebook share Sep 19 11:26:09 it all happens in the background so it's seamless to the user Sep 19 11:26:21 but the moment the user clicks on "share" the share activity is finished Sep 19 11:26:27 I did a bit of refactoring now through, lemme check... Sep 19 11:28:08 nohing... even with a static handler and calling the postdelayed before the activity finishes, it doesn't get called. Sep 19 11:28:29 well, you could consider structuring the delayed work as an alarm Sep 19 11:28:47 whether user is elsewhere by that time or not shouldn't matter, the alarm will bring a context that can execute it, and the intent can encode the details of what to share. Sep 19 11:29:16 Thought about it, but I believe an alarm is overkill in this case. Sep 19 11:30:19 well then I suspect you would want to consider IntentService maybe as the sharing system. You can upload, just go Thread.sleep(15000), then do the FB query. Sep 19 11:30:40 that limits the rate of uploads for imagery to 4 per minute but I imagine it would suffice for all users Sep 19 11:31:51 I imagine android keeps an IntentService alive if it can while it is processing something still. Sep 19 11:33:04 I did try Thread.sleep() on the asynctask Sep 19 11:33:08 Need to mention for the record that I dislike time delays like this. They are never a part of properly thought out system, especially just a single fixed delay like that. Sep 19 11:33:10 but that shit didn't seem to work either. Sep 19 11:33:18 I know. Sep 19 11:33:27 But there is no way for me to tell when amazon finished processing the image Sep 19 11:33:43 it hands out an URL. you could poll it, ... Sep 19 11:34:23 I guess? Sep 19 11:34:32 thought about it, haven't tried it yet Sep 19 11:35:10 screw it, let's see what happens Sep 19 11:52:27 those of y'all using retrofit is there a hacky way to cancel a request? cc JakeWharton Sep 19 13:19:31 Hey there! Sep 19 13:20:31 If my app needs to open a link, how can I set it up so that there's only one instance of my app running? SingleTask seems to not work if the activity I registered in the intent filter is not on top of the current app task's stack. Sep 19 13:22:42 e.g. how does it work that a web browser can always open a link? How do I prevent such an intent from being dropped? Sep 19 13:23:36 so... i cleared google play's cache; I just uploaded a new apk, about 25 minutes ago... Is it normal for it not to show up in google play search? Sep 19 13:23:42 it only disappeared after i cleared the cache Sep 19 13:26:05 welp, its not the cache, its happening for a coworker too Sep 19 13:31:38 otiose: It usually takes a couple of hours to propagate, but if it's just an update the old one should still be visible. Sep 19 13:31:49 yes, its just an update and now its invisible Sep 19 13:31:59 for what its worth, I put in 2 pretty quickly after each other Sep 19 13:32:08 Ok, this is a funny one - I want my adapter's getItem to return items of type T, so I declared class MyAdapter Sep 19 13:32:20 Secondly, I set my adapter via a setMyAdapter() method Sep 19 13:32:26 Must be your "clear cache" step then... Shouldn't affect others I guess. Sep 19 13:32:33 which can be called from one of two MyBaseClass classes Sep 19 13:32:40 extension classes* Sep 19 13:32:47 its affected everyone who deleted the app first Sep 19 13:32:50 how can I tell setMyAdapter() which one to use? Sep 19 13:34:11 otiose: I guess that's outside the normal update procedures anyway. I haven't looked into what actually happens with updates, so I'm of no help to you with this. Sep 19 13:35:13 yeah im not sure whats happeneing Sep 19 13:35:26 it still shows up by the URL so it might just be the search that got screwed up Sep 19 13:52:22 Hey boys, i've been struggeling with a spped issue, when using EntityUtils.toString(httpResponse.getEntity(), HTTP.UTF_8); it seems like it's taking it's time to get done reading from the input stream (i've tried other similar ways of getting the data) any other way of getting a string faster than this method? Sep 19 13:53:36 A string with length ~16000 is 40ms, and a string with length 230000 is a whopping ~500ms Sep 19 13:54:07 230000 is about 200kb data Sep 19 13:56:46 how do you expect to get it faster? Sep 19 13:56:58 on many phones, it can take seconds to get 200kb of data Sep 19 13:57:20 can your app predict the future? Sep 19 13:57:29 Mine can Sep 19 13:58:20 My app predicts that Qualcomm drivers will suck for a long time Sep 19 13:59:34 I don't know how to (or if i can) get it faster, thats why i'm seeking advice Sep 19 13:59:47 MroiZo: what kind of network?... Actually, disregard that. Learn and embrace the fact that unless you control the whole of the network and it's all wired, you can't expect anything :> Sep 19 13:59:48 you cannot Sep 19 13:59:51 you can only stream it Sep 19 14:00:04 MroiZo: what you can do is design for minimum round-trip etc. Sep 19 14:00:48 hmm, isn't this: HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(request); the actual internet request? Sep 19 14:01:29 no Sep 19 14:01:51 ~400KB/s is what I'd almost call "best case scenario" on a phone. Sep 19 14:02:28 If you're bored, you can try profiling it to find out for sure it's data transfer that's taking so long. Sep 19 14:03:05 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacies_of_Distributed_Computing <--- useful to have printed :) Sep 19 14:04:14 hmm, i'm not exactly sure about the difference between HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(request); and getting the response from the inputstream (EntityUtils.toString(httpResponse.getEntity(), HTTP.UTF_8);) then... can some one explain, or link to some material about it? Sep 19 14:04:53 read the docs and see what it says Sep 19 14:05:02 execute just means send the request Sep 19 14:05:07 getEntity means read it Sep 19 14:05:09 apparently Sep 19 14:05:14 what else would you expect Sep 19 14:06:07 okay, thanks i'll spend some more time reading up on it. Sep 19 14:17:45 hi, i have 2 png equal, just 1 is rotate of 90° of 2, i can do this with xml ?? i dont wont 2 png Sep 19 14:18:30 i just wont a xml drowable that rapresent a rotation of 90° of a png drowable Sep 19 14:18:47 anyone can help me? Sep 19 14:21:21 xan_IT: http://stackoverflow.com/a/8716798 Sep 19 14:22:31 crf Sep 19 14:25:25 kakazza thz Sep 19 14:25:36 Hello! Sometimes i receive not valid json from web api. Usually i parse it using gson. How i can solve problem of not valid json (before or during parsing)? Sep 19 14:28:29 xgear: I think you should ensure that web api always returns valid JSON Sep 19 14:30:20 akhkharu: this validator ( http://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/ ) fails validation of json (when it is unparsable) Sep 19 14:31:29 I definitely know that api not always returns valid json. Sep 19 14:32:02 xgear: that's really strange. Must be a bug in the API? Sep 19 14:32:10 maybe Sep 19 14:32:16 but i cant fix it Sep 19 14:33:00 Should i pre-process data before parsing or gson have some features to solve it? Sep 19 14:34:18 xgear: try to play with this param http://google-gson.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/gson/docs/javadocs/com/google/gson/stream/JsonReader.html#setLenient(boolean) Sep 19 14:34:51 if it won't help, try to do some regex pre-processing before parsing Sep 19 14:35:02 otherwise just catch an exception thrown and ignore this JSON Sep 19 14:35:29 regex pre-processing is a bit hackish IMHO, so it's better to avoid it Sep 19 14:36:06 who cares? catch the exception when parsing and return an error condition Sep 19 14:36:54 "otherwise just catch an exception thrown and ignore this JSON" my current behaviour Sep 19 14:37:21 what are you expecting to do instead? Sep 19 14:37:24 magic? Sep 19 14:37:26 "regex pre-processing is a bit hackish" and pain in the ass Sep 19 14:38:31 "magic?" Of course! Because i am developer :D Sep 19 14:39:51 The new play store beta controls are pretty nice. Sep 19 14:41:09 How do I setup my release build to run from android studio? I can do it from the command line, everything works. I just want to know how to set it to use my release build config Sep 19 14:45:02 What do you guys use for bug tracking? Sep 19 14:58:20 Hello everyone Sep 19 14:59:30 \away Sep 19 14:59:46 SrRaven: Crashlytics Sep 19 15:03:40 hello Sep 19 15:04:12 if I fired up /system/bin/surfaceflinger and can see the logo glowing, is there another binary I can run as easily in order to get the graphics environment set up? Sep 19 15:04:26 (yes, I do insist on that scenario) Sep 19 15:05:19 Hi everybody, i'm working with ActionBar Sherlock. In my manifest I set the theme to DarkActionBar (everything work) then i switch to the Light theme and launch an activity but it crash :s Sep 19 15:09:51 hey all. Im building AOSP and Ive added a native library that I expose through JNI to my app Sep 19 15:10:08 question is if its possible to make the library functions run as system? Sep 19 15:10:20 or can it only run in the context of the app that calls the functions? Sep 19 15:10:45 it runs in the context of the app Sep 19 15:10:58 but if you're building in AOSP, then what's stopping you from giving the app system? Sep 19 15:11:34 Chainfire: the app is system, but it still doesnt have root permissions the same way, say a native daemon you run as system would Sep 19 15:11:47 system != root Sep 19 15:11:57 Ive written a native daemon too that runs every 30 seconds, and that runs as root Sep 19 15:11:58 if you want root, you need root Sep 19 15:12:01 Chainfire: yeah, my bad, sorry Sep 19 15:12:05 been a long day :)= Sep 19 15:12:23 the highest apps run as is system, so no, you can't run the library code as root Sep 19 15:12:36 Chainfire: ah, thats depressing :) Sep 19 15:12:37 if you're building a firmware, start your daemon from init Sep 19 15:12:45 Chainfire: yes, Ive done that Sep 19 15:13:03 Chainfire: but I need the daemon to be able to somehow communicate with my Android app Sep 19 15:13:15 use a named socket or whatever Sep 19 15:13:35 let the daemon create it, Java code (you don't even need to write native code for this) can connect to said socket and talk to the daemon Sep 19 15:13:58 Chainfire: nice, thanks for the tip. Do you have any good guides or something for that? Sep 19 15:14:16 not really. The construct is already used in AOSP though, not sure where Sep 19 15:14:19 maybe rild ? Sep 19 15:14:23 Ill look into it Sep 19 15:14:34 I think Java code communicates with the ril daemon using a socket like that Sep 19 15:14:55 I should have checked this before spending an entire day writing that library and all the associated JNI code, >_< Sep 19 15:15:17 what's done is done Sep 19 15:15:28 indeed Sep 19 15:15:55 can the system library communicate with the native daemon somehow though? Sep 19 15:16:01 using sockets as well? Sep 19 15:16:25 or visa versa I suppose :) Sep 19 15:16:26 not "as well", that's what you use it for Sep 19 15:16:32 what else were you going to use it for ? Sep 19 15:16:46 well, let me rephrase Sep 19 15:17:20 since the system library functions run in the context of whatever calls it, the native daemon (running as root) can call the functions and have them run as root too, right? Sep 19 15:18:43 a library is a library. If you load it from your deamon and call it's functions, they shall run in the context of the daemon Sep 19 15:18:52 Chainfire: thanks! Sep 19 15:20:10 Hi everyone , I am using eclipse Memory analyser (MAT) for finding memory leaks in my app.But i am confused in using that tool Sep 19 15:20:32 harsha_, be specific Sep 19 15:22:06 Anyone know where I can find an example of a custom adapter for a multiple choice listview? Sep 19 15:22:23 why would you need an example adapter... Sep 19 15:22:54 Chainfire: thanks for your insight. One last question, which is probably also rather basic. If I make my daemon open a socket and let my android app connect to it and communicate that way, is it possible to prevent non-system apps from doing the same? Sep 19 15:23:18 pfn:I am running it using ddms and iam unable to analyse the memory leaks using histogram and dominator tree. Sep 19 15:23:59 I'm not sure if it's supported from Java but you can securely exchange credentials over sockets with kernel enforcement. A different and maybe better solution is maybe only just accepting one socket at a time, and have your java service always be connected. that way nobody else can connect anyway Sep 19 15:24:10 harsha_, "unable to" what does that mean Sep 19 15:24:14 pfn i just want to see how it all fitst together, extending CheckableRelativeLayout and implementing checkable Sep 19 15:24:17 but to be honest, you're just going to have to read the docs on sockets both native and java, and see whatever you can come up with :) Sep 19 15:24:21 you can run tls over domain sockets Sep 19 15:24:22
