**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Oct 01 02:59:58 2013 Oct 01 03:03:13 to answer my own previous question: https://github.com/derekbrameyer/android-betterpickers Oct 01 03:42:17 anyone came across the same problem? > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19107507/genymotion-allow-su-access-permanently Oct 01 04:01:58 gradle + eclipse for android development - good times? Oct 01 04:19:28 jedir0x: since I've wasted about 5 hours trying to get gradle to work? I doubt it. Oct 01 04:21:25 well, i'm sure i can get gradle to work - it's more of the IDE integration that i'm worried about. Oct 01 04:21:38 I like eclipse for java code, and the debugger as well. Oct 01 04:25:03 god, now that llckfan's b een banned from the #android* he goes and infests #sbt-android Oct 01 04:25:05 ahole.... Oct 01 04:25:42 that assholes in android-dev too Oct 01 04:25:58 err #android Oct 01 04:26:12 is he still? not banned yet? Oct 01 04:26:15 or was. he timed out Oct 01 04:26:21 so yeah not vbanned yet Oct 01 04:27:58 I'm getting a handle on Android Studio, but I have to ask if it's more efficient to manually code out the UI design than to use the XML layout. Oct 01 04:33:16 sbt-android is sbt for android? Oct 01 04:33:26 android and scala i presume Oct 01 04:54:32 yes Oct 01 05:07:56 why does the button handler get a view? public void sendMessage(View view) I am following http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html Oct 01 05:17:02 How can I call an action with a string Oct 01 05:17:46 What i'm trying to achieve is make a call to a server over gcm, the server processes and sends a response that gets picked up by the broadcast receiver Oct 01 05:18:12 The problem is that the original request has no relation to the response on the client side Oct 01 05:18:46 my first thought is to pass along an action reference and execute that with the response Oct 01 05:19:01 like my_action: 'com.google.android.gcm.demo.app.ECHO_NOW' Oct 01 05:19:35 but I don' tknow how to turn a string into a command that can be run on the client without a ton of switch/case Oct 01 05:40:05 Hello all, we are developing a bookshelf application which contains few books(with animation and audio). We are planning to make the first book free for downloading and from second book we want users to pay for accessing. What is the best way to do this? I am thinking of implementing this by uploading separate apk files for each book on Google Play and make it available via In App Purchase. Any suggestions are highly appreciated. T Oct 01 05:40:05 hanks a lot Oct 01 05:40:24 Map Oct 01 06:04:11 Mrono: Clearly what you want to do is write a VM. Oct 01 06:04:19 * Nilium says after writing a VM for fun. Oct 01 06:15:55 hello in here Oct 01 06:16:22 do we have nice apis to get the macadress of the connected device on a android running on api 8 ? Oct 01 06:18:42 i was looking around and only found approaches, which seem to read a sys file .... since api 9 getMacAdress or some smilar instruction is available but what can i do for api 8 ? Oct 01 06:18:57 Icbytes, did u try through device ids ? Oct 01 06:20:47 device id's ? Oct 01 06:20:48 no Oct 01 06:21:31 it is like : a connection of all three is always "preferred", one can set that. And this usually is used, if more are available prior to the others. Oct 01 06:22:09 Meaning, all devices have macs, but i must get the mac of those device, which is really connected.... with Android 2.3 Oct 01 06:22:32 "there has been at least one widely-observed bug in a popular handset from a major manufacturer, where every instance has the same ANDROID_ID." … anybody remember who this was ? Oct 01 06:24:43 i encounter other problems now, somehow i cannot open my project anymore.... ( .prpoerties missing, though existent, and so on )..... Oct 01 06:27:23 really, either eclipse or adt........ Oct 01 06:27:41 It should be the id way Oct 01 06:28:25 id way ? Oct 01 06:29:04 so, there is no api, i have to probe each device for "being connected"..... by NAME ? Are You serious ? Oct 01 06:30:01 Nilium: a VM? Oct 01 06:30:08 Nilium: as in a virtual machine? Oct 01 06:35:50 hm, i'm wondering if i can turn ContentObserver + HashMap into an eventbus; even better MVStore for persisted sticky messages Oct 01 06:36:07 saw something like this with redis Oct 01 06:37:56 mornings Oct 01 06:38:13 mornings Oct 01 06:39:06 empty listview Oct 01 06:39:25 how to give a listview a special view when its empty and not a listactivity? Oct 01 06:40:07 setEmptyView() :P Oct 01 06:41:31 awesoem :) Oct 01 06:41:52 what can i do now, in order to get macadress of connected device for android 2.3 and above ? Oct 01 06:42:02 does nobody ever needed that ? Oct 01 06:45:09 Try to ask all devices installed on the device with network flags, that is the long when there is no function under 9 Oct 01 06:45:56 can my app make a custom calendar and stuff things into it? Oct 01 07:00:12 sadolino ? this is like i do it at home, with c under linux in a project of mine,,,,, so reading /sys/class/net line for line and then check the device for flags ???? Oct 01 07:01:57 g00s Oct 01 07:02:02 question Oct 01 07:02:02 g00s, droid2 or something like that Oct 01 07:02:09 morning pfn :) Oct 01 07:02:19 hello Oct 01 07:02:41 oh nvm g00s lol i am stupid Oct 01 07:03:23 you should all code your android apps in scala .. Oct 01 07:03:26 convert the world Oct 01 07:03:31 lemonxah and you're not using ArrayAdapter , right ? right ? Oct 01 07:03:31 i hate java :/ Oct 01 07:03:37 lol never Oct 01 07:03:42 good lemon Oct 01 07:03:53 only cursorAdapters and baseAdapters Oct 01 07:03:59 \o/ Oct 01 07:04:01 hi, I have the following layout, but the textview isn't showing on my 4.1.2 device, it shows on the android preview though http://pastebin.ws/cz3wr0 Oct 01 07:04:03 as for api8,who cares? Oct 01 07:04:20 there's only one api8 device left in the world, or something Oct 01 07:04:28 thats mine Oct 01 07:04:30 * pfn points fingers Oct 01 07:04:43 is api14 too new to require? some new calendar stuff there Oct 01 07:04:50 ok yeah i wasn't stupid just a quick question then .. :/ Oct 01 07:04:56 nah, i use api 15 minsdk :) Oct 01 07:05:13 hmm Oct 01 07:05:30 api14 and newer is present on more than 66% of devicez Oct 01 07:05:38 ok Oct 01 07:05:38 make of that what you will Oct 01 07:05:38 i need it with api8 because bluestacks supports this and all other emulators suck. Oct 01 07:06:03 any ideas? Oct 01 07:06:36 icbytes try genymotion ? Oct 01 07:06:57 genymotion ? Oct 01 07:07:02 never heard of that.... Oct 01 07:07:04 x86 emulator images work beautifully Oct 01 07:07:07 lt me look Oct 01 07:07:51 hmm, sounds good, does genymotion have a api, to which it is limited ? Oct 01 07:08:29 its basically androVm + vbox Oct 01 07:08:52 faster that any HAXM stuff ? Oct 01 07:08:57 much Oct 01 07:09:27 very nice Oct 01 07:09:37 same speed as haxm for me Oct 01 07:09:40 are YOu aware of a maximum api ? Oct 01 07:09:58 it is not limited Oct 01 07:10:05 genymotion > haxm crap Oct 01 07:10:05 cool cool. Oct 01 07:10:17 it's just an x86 android image Oct 01 07:10:20 so i can get rid of haxms and bluestacks..... Oct 01 07:10:27 http://pastebin.com/0ugLm2XE Oct 01 07:10:30 oh, it is haxm ? Oct 01 07:10:37 no Oct 01 07:10:40 that is my setEmptyView question Oct 01 07:10:41 it's a vm Oct 01 07:10:48 it's a vm with a UI that doesn't make you want to stab your face Oct 01 07:11:01 and it has useful controls that actually allow you to test Oct 01 07:11:29 i dont think any of the x86 images have play services, or do they now? but genymotion has that Oct 01 07:11:45 dunno. it's always been an adb pull/push away Oct 01 07:12:03 my only real problem is, that i am restricted now to api 8, because bluestacks supports it, and i can test and even debug on blue. And i need macadress of connected device.... i would usually now have no need to rely on api 8 ( though i still would like to know, how to obtain macadress on api 8, just for completeness )..... Oct 01 07:12:28 that is abysmal Oct 01 07:12:44 bluestacks seems worthless Oct 01 07:12:46 get Genymotion, develop for an API level that was released this decade Oct 01 07:12:47 icbytes you're even more masochistic than i am , heh Oct 01 07:12:52 why even test with it Oct 01 07:13:00 blue tests very fast. Oct 01 07:13:23 Genymotion is faster. Don't look back Oct 01 07:13:26 directly deployed, it surely has its advantages as its disadvantages ( api 8 ). Oct 01 07:13:49 sure.... what my application would be restricted to run on api9 miminum then..... Oct 01 07:13:53 bluestacks its an app player - genymotion is better suited for testing since you can mock gps, etc Oct 01 07:13:59 aha Oct 01 07:14:02 hmmmm.... Oct 01 07:14:08 API 8 isn't a disadvantage, it's a terminal disease Oct 01 07:14:11 sure sure sure.... good argument Oct 01 07:14:19 terminal disease ? Oct 01 07:14:22 :-) Oct 01 07:14:43 yeah. it kills your app Oct 01 07:14:55 what about debugging and integration in adt ? no extra affort ? Oct 01 07:14:58 effort ? Oct 01 07:15:01 zero Oct 01 07:15:03 * pragma- continues to support froyo in his app -- has about 12 froyo users still hanging on. Oct 01 07:15:14 has eclipse / intellij plugins -but i don't even use those Oct 01 07:15:22 seems to work fine without Oct 01 07:15:23 don't use the plugins Oct 01 07:15:25 wait, api8 is android 2.3 isnt it ? Oct 01 07:15:28 no Oct 01 07:15:30 it's 2.2 Oct 01 07:15:31 it's 2.2 Oct 01 07:15:31 2.2 Oct 01 07:15:36 it's 2.2 Oct 01 07:15:37 oh that bites :/ Oct 01 07:15:37 oh, sorry. Oct 01 07:15:54 does it also chew? Oct 01 07:15:58 you can only use setEmptyView if that view is in the same layout file that the listview has Oct 01 07:16:00 pragma-: time for multi-apk. leave them on a working version! Oct 01 07:16:03 i'm more interested if it swallows Oct 01 07:16:06 * Zharf also supports 2.2 in his current apps, but not future ones Oct 01 07:16:08 thats not going to work :/ Oct 01 07:16:14 though bluestacks has restriction somewhere there. Oct 01 07:16:27 so i will get genymotion then, Oct 01 07:16:39 and there i have getHardwareAdress :-D Oct 01 07:16:57 uninstalling bluestacks was extremely painful on mac - it put shit *everywhere* Oct 01 07:17:07 and had some crap run on startup Oct 01 07:17:20 that itself, was not in the normal place Oct 01 07:18:20 JakeWharton: well, it's not a big deal. just some minor corner-cases to deal with. for the most part, abs and viewpager have made it tolerable. Oct 01 07:19:03 (and the support library, of course) Oct 01 07:19:39 indeed Oct 01 07:19:56 and viewpagerindicator! Oct 01 07:20:23 by the way, a friend told me, that ui elements on fragments at runtime is only possible in constructor of fragment.... is that true ? Oct 01 07:20:49 that "placing ui elements"....... Oct 01 07:20:50 mostly in my case it's been some features that just aren't available in older platforms because of missing platform support Oct 01 07:21:23 @Zharf : for me ? Oct 01 07:21:32 icbytes, no :) Oct 01 07:21:48 ok. Oct 01 07:22:28 icbytes, and the answer to your question is also 'no'... unless I'm missing something here Oct 01 07:22:32 ha, looking forward to install genymotion Oct 01 07:22:59 ok, all lifetime cycle of the fragment one can place / remove other views on it ? Oct 01 07:23:06 i got bit one time because i accidentally used android.content.ClipboardManager instead of android.text.ClipboardManager Oct 01 07:23:16 pragma-, I have 13 2.2 users... Oct 01 07:23:34 1 3.1 user -.- Oct 01 07:23:49 android.content.ClipboardManager is the api 11+ version that supports copying objects other than text whereas android.text.ClipboardManager does text-only since api 1 Oct 01 07:24:19 since my app only deals with text copy/paste, it was easy enough to go with android.text.ClipboardManager. Oct 01 07:24:25 oh my other app has 17 2.2 users.. Oct 01 07:25:46 hmmy, what a pitty. Oct 01 07:25:55 there are only high api versions. Oct 01 07:26:14 i would prefer to have 10 at least Oct 01 07:26:19 does not matter Oct 01 07:26:23 thx so far. Oct 01 07:26:43 it would be nice to drop support for everything older than api 16 so I don't have to test in all those emulators to make sure everything is consistent Oct 01 07:27:18 I have api8 phone I run my apps on just before updating the one on the store Oct 01 07:28:04 Is there a legal way to update to 4.3 without manufacturer, through sdk 4.3 ? Oct 01 07:28:12 my phone is stuck with api 15 though, and it's not likely that I'll be getting a new one anytime soon Oct 01 07:28:13 Mrono: Yes, as in a virtual machine. Oct 01 07:28:23 sadolino: What do you mean? Oct 01 07:28:50 sadolino: you can unlock your phone and use a custom rom Oct 01 07:29:21 without to miss the huarantee ? Oct 01 07:29:28 Guarantee Oct 01 07:29:57 On the ofgicially way there is no update Oct 01 07:30:04 Offic... Oct 01 07:30:15 you'll probably lose your warranty, if it still has one Oct 01 07:31:14 and when i make it through sdk also ? Oct 01 07:31:42 sadolino: If you modify your device to run unsigned code, yeah Oct 01 07:32:03 Which is what a bootloader unlock typically will do Oct 01 07:33:00 I'm creating an android app that essentially lets people post advertisements for stuff they want to sell, and lets other people view them. I'm a bit confused about how to go about managing the data (I'm still new to Android dev). Should I use an online database (like MongoHQ)? And then should I create a simple REST API to access the data from my app or should I access the database directly? And do I need to use ContentProvide Oct 01 07:33:00 r? Oct 01 07:33:10 http://pastebin.com/Y3H3CskB why this doesn't work? I want to show some points on the map, but I see sea insted. The bounds are fine according to log, and the code is called, because I see those logs. Yet, it doesn;t work. I remeber it worked a couple of months ago, but now, after lot of upgrades, it doesn't. Oct 01 07:33:14 For example, i use the global device id to combine it with jelly bean 4.3 from android studio and play it in through a official update way Oct 01 07:33:46 oh, and If i comment out line 10, it works, but the maps is blinking like hell (obviously). Oct 01 07:34:11 always use ContentProviders its a decent seperation of models and views Oct 01 07:34:31 Anyone familiar with porting ROMs? I'm looking for a little help porting Ubuntu Touch to my phone... The project was started in February by someone else, who no longer maintains the project... but I have no idea where they left off, which leads me to no starting point... Oct 01 07:34:41 but you should populate this ContentProvider from somewhere so havinga REST API to get data from would be great Oct 01 07:34:45 @android , is there any collabo with android database manufactures ? Oct 01 07:34:55 oh that is @ spinningarrow Oct 01 07:35:15 Sry @spinningarrow :) Oct 01 07:36:32 this isn't twitter Oct 01 07:37:24 any solution for my issue ? Oct 01 07:37:31 lemonxah: thanks! using ContentProvider, is consuming a REST API more work than directly connecting to a database? Oct 01 07:37:40 Anyone know when t-mo GS3 might get 4.3? Oct 01 07:38:35 sadolino: You're trying to update your hardware to 4.3, right? Oct 01 07:38:37 not really spinningarrow its the prob the same about of work .. but an API gives you some other control like "long runnin tasks" you do in transactions Oct 01 07:38:57 but what if your direct connection to the DB gets interupted by connection loss on the android? Oct 01 07:39:17 lemonxah: ah, so it's actually better? Oct 01 07:39:57 yes its never a good thing to directly access a remote db if you have a case where connection loss is common Oct 01 07:40:15 Yh seitensei Oct 01 07:40:29 from a webapp its ok to access it directly cause you can be almost certain the webapp will have connectivity Oct 01 07:45:04 I see. That clears things up. Thanks lemonxah! Oct 01 07:48:19 no worries Oct 01 07:54:25 Nilium: that's what I thought, then I have no idea how you relate that to my question lol Oct 01 07:58:00 hi everyone Oct 01 07:58:22 There are some resources from the android action bar icon pack that I want to include in my app. Is there a way to include the directory of action bar icon pack so that it is searched for resources in addition to my project's res folder? Or is this a bad idea to begin with and I should just hand-pick the icons I need? Oct 01 07:58:23 hallo Oct 01 07:58:28 I am using SQLiteDatabase in my application and I want to send a query to my DB. For that, I use the 'query' method Oct 01 07:59:17 it looks like the WHERE clause is not created correctly because I always receive a Cursor with no datas in it. If I check the mQuery member of the returned Cursor, I get this: Oct 01 07:59:31 SELECT _id, studied, favorite, jlpt, kunyomi, onyomi FROM entries WHERE _id>? and _id quantalrabbit put the ones you want into your project Oct 01 08:00:12 the documentation says that i must put '?' in the selection field and add the arguments as a String[] parameter, that's what I do. Oct 01 08:00:29 Any idea why these '?' are not replaced by the arguments?? Oct 01 08:01:35 http://pastebin.com/xHzzyaFC Oct 01 08:02:03 g00s: thanks! just wanted to make sure that was the correct approach. i guess the other idea if it were possible would mean all the action bar icon pack resources would also be packaged in the apk wasting space? Oct 01 08:02:19 sorry, I commented the 'selectionArgs in the paste, but in fact the result is the same Oct 01 08:03:32 quantalrabbit if for some reason you want to split them, you could add extra resource directory in your gradle file Oct 01 08:05:53 g00s: if i'm not using Eclipse nor Android Studio but building from command-line, is gradle applicable to me (building with ant)? Oct 01 08:06:14 yes, its easy with gradle Oct 01 08:06:31 but f everything works right now, easiest past is stick with ant and just copy the icons ;) Oct 01 08:06:37 ugh Oct 01 08:06:42 easiest path Oct 01 08:07:19 g00s: got it. thanks! Oct 01 08:09:31 if i make a style with a white text color and apply that style to a linear layout Oct 01 08:09:44 will all the child textview's textColor be white? Oct 01 08:10:59 try it :) Oct 01 08:34:17 TIL about taskwarrior Oct 01 08:48:39 i have an android library project and if i compile i get the debug aar. but now, how do in include my library in another project (using android studio btw)??? Oct 01 08:49:03 hi all Oct 01 08:49:15 skullcrasher you have to publish it to a local .m2/repository Oct 01 08:49:24 can anyone help me with this? Oct 01 08:49:29 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19090488/turn-camera-flash-led-on-off-with-sl4a-python Oct 01 08:49:45 g00s: uh Oct 01 08:50:06 skullcrasher there are examples on the android site Oct 01 08:51:20 skullcrasher get the examples, last line of the page http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system Oct 01 08:52:37 you know, this may have changed based on the changelog for AS Oct 01 08:52:52 0.2.10 had some interesting tidbit tucked away Oct 01 08:54:13 ok, i will see what i can find :) Oct 01 08:54:13 thx Oct 01 08:54:14 skullcrasher after you get the file, look at the repo/ example Oct 01 08:54:26 notice uploadArchives task Oct 01 08:54:42 maybe it wold be easier to setup a project with 2 modules (1 library 1 app) Oct 01 08:54:44 in your app, you can use i think mavenLocal() as a shorthand for yours Oct 01 08:57:10 hi all Oct 01 08:57:12 can anyone help me with this? Oct 01 08:57:16 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19090488/turn-camera-flash-led-on-off-with-sl4a-python Oct 01 09:05:16 good idea to use google's Guava in android? Oct 01 09:05:53 you can … beware it contributes a lot of methods to the 65k limit tho Oct 01 09:06:11 Tmokgu , is hrre something with python ? Oct 01 09:07:15 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15413053/android-led-doesnt-turn-on-off Oct 01 09:08:35 Sry timkofu :) Oct 01 09:22:24 g00s: i think i go for a new project as i said with 2 modules. is it possible to have a separate git for every module? Oct 01 09:22:50 hm Oct 01 09:23:00 i dont know how modules work in AS now with gradle Oct 01 09:23:21 my problem for now is, i have my api that is used in many activities Oct 01 09:23:38 if your library will be used by other projects, i would pub it to your local maven repo Oct 01 09:23:39 but in the current project is only in an own branch ... Oct 01 09:23:50 so i have to merge in every branch if i update it ... Oct 01 09:23:57 O.O Oct 01 09:24:07 that's why i thought of outsourcing it in an own project as library :) Oct 01 09:24:07 i'm not terrific with git eiather Oct 01 09:24:50 it's only for this project Oct 01 09:25:31 but every activity has its own feature branch, so it can be changed independently Oct 01 09:25:39 but all should use the same api level Oct 01 09:32:24 skullcrasher i dunno, maybe it would be better to use gradle variants than all the special branches ? Oct 01 09:34:50 the work with branches works well Oct 01 09:35:29 the only thing is my api that is uses in all branches. thats why i thought i could just do a library/module project for it Oct 01 09:35:40 and import Oct 01 09:38:17 salve a tutti c'� qualche italiano che mi possa dare un suporto? Oct 01 09:38:58 salve a tutti c'� qualche italiano che mi possa dare un suporto???? Oct 01 09:40:20 akhilleus, you're probably not going to get very far without english in here, sorry. Oct 01 09:56:04 hello guys, I have a strange problem on some of the devices (my min sdk is 9) I got java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: android.media.audiofx.Equalizer Oct 01 09:56:18 but most of them the Equalizer works fine Oct 01 09:57:34 tu.no Oct 01 09:57:37 sry Oct 01 10:00:20 tagrudev, sounds weird, whcih devices? Oct 01 10:02:17 Zharf, Optimus One , Galaxy Mini, Desire, M835 Oct 01 10:04:22 tagrudev, apparently there's some audiofx apps on the market that list optimus one as one that doesn't work Oct 01 10:04:31 possibly broken platform, wouldn't be surprised :) Oct 01 10:04:53 can you share a link ? Oct 01 10:05:13 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.cacheux.soundboost&hl=en Oct 01 10:06:17 not sure really why... could be just that the developer of that app is crap too :p Oct 01 10:07:27 I don't have the devices to test it really but there is nothing fancy Oct 01 10:07:37 that I am doing Oct 01 10:07:48 and it works on the devices I've tested it on Oct 01 10:08:23 I am getting this error from my crash reports in crittercism Oct 01 10:10:12 hmm Oct 01 10:10:29 it would be great if you could tell critercism : if you see this exception, add the device to my Play listing blacklist :D Oct 01 10:10:37 apparently there's no gingerbread for htc desire Oct 01 10:10:50 so how the hell did it crash on that if the min sdk is 9 Oct 01 10:11:50 rooted maybe ? Oct 01 10:12:08 sounds more like people are somehow using it with api8 device, which you can't be blamed for Oct 01 10:13:45 android:minSdkVersion="9" Oct 01 10:13:50 it's 9 Oct 01 10:16:19 is it possible to access a bluetooth packet's timestamp recorded at the system level? Oct 01 10:16:38 or where can i ask that? Oct 01 10:40:51 tagrudev, by the way, check that the min sdk is also the same in developer console Oct 01 10:41:08 tagrudev, I found http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18776153/android-uses-sdk-minsdkversion-being-ignored-by-play-store Oct 01 10:42:13 API levels 7+ Oct 01 10:42:14 oh boy Oct 01 10:42:15 wtf Oct 01 10:42:39 -.- Oct 01 10:43:07 fuck you android studio yeah in the gradle file Oct 01 10:43:10 it's 7 Oct 01 10:43:13 in the manifest Oct 01 10:43:15 it's 9 Oct 01 10:43:57 fun Oct 01 10:46:06 API levels 9+ (previously 7+) Oct 01 10:46:15 Zharf, ty a lot mate that saved me a lot of time Oct 01 10:48:00 no problem Oct 01 10:50:21 tagrudev what happened ? Oct 01 10:50:48 the gradle file will override the manifest Oct 01 10:50:55 (as documented) Oct 01 10:50:59 seems silly Oct 01 10:51:04 yes Oct 01 10:51:05 so take it out of the gradle, and leave it in the manifest Oct 01 10:51:29 there is a good reason, for using variants Oct 01 10:51:39 you may have one variant minSdk = 7, the other minSdk = 14 Oct 01 10:51:45 its well thought out, actually Oct 01 10:52:41 I wouldn't know, I never used gradle Oct 01 10:54:05 whats the deal with textsizes? do they scale linearly or is something else going on? Oct 01 11:07:19 What? Oct 01 11:09:10 please tell me, is it wise to pass Activity/FragmentActivity to ctor of own class, in order to use ApplicationContext and other stuff in it ? ( i remember to have read, this can cause memory leaks ) ..... Oct 01 11:14:13 g00s, at least a conflict should be raised Oct 01 11:14:25 I disagree that "it's well thought" Oct 01 11:14:45 and how come that the IDE reads the manifest and the store reads the gradle Oct 01 11:14:48 tagrudev what is the conflict? gradle overrides manifest Oct 01 11:15:54 store doesn't read gradle, it reads the apk prepared by gradle or whatever Oct 01 11:15:55 so either (1) dont have in gradle, have in manifest or (2) specify in gradle, but not manifest, or (3) override Oct 01 11:17:13 Zharf right … prepared by gradle by deterministic transformations ;) maybe i don't understand the problem Oct 01 11:18:24 could this be right not to pass Activity reference to own subclass..... ? Oct 01 11:18:25 it's a bit weird to suddenly start using a different place for the info, and no doubt a lot of people will run into this problem Oct 01 11:19:12 since i'm not using variants, i dont have anything like minSdk in my gradle Oct 01 11:19:15 I think the IDE should response to that Oct 01 11:19:26 a duplication error maybe or something Oct 01 11:19:33 I don't have gradle at all so I can't really relate Oct 01 11:19:40 no clue how the variants even work :) Oct 01 11:19:56 respond* Oct 01 11:22:08 There's no duplication error. Manifest entries aren't necessarily set by every flavor or build variant Oct 01 11:23:18 this is PEBKAC Oct 01 11:23:22 :) Oct 01 11:23:53 hehe Oct 01 11:25:08 mh, I could try gradle with my xmms2-android but my native compilation procedures have special needs -.- ... maven can't handle them so I resorted into having it in a shell script instead :p Oct 01 11:25:50 that's a real problem though g00s maybe not all of the developers have your significant genius brain Oct 01 11:26:17 * g00s doesn't have a genius brain; infact pfn thinks i'm so dumb i should change careers Oct 01 11:27:18 ugh, this sucks … i have a tcp client library for a specific protocol but its not very friendly with android. man, this is going to be hairy Oct 01 11:27:47 does gradle handle the version number properly for store filtering with these variant things Oct 01 11:28:26 Zharf, I really don't know I am glad that you point that out so I didn't loose more time on this Oct 01 11:29:01 Zharf it should Oct 01 11:29:18 I can't find anything on its behaviour in the documentation Oct 01 11:29:37 seems like with the latest version, the gradle plugin is getting decent. its a good time to try it out Oct 01 11:29:51 If you set a versionCode in your build.gradle, it will use that version number Oct 01 11:29:57 Just like any other manifest entry it support Oct 01 11:30:11 (Such as minSdkVersion) Oct 01 11:30:19 SimonVT, but it doesn't automatically make me a version number Oct 01 11:30:24 Oh, no Oct 01 11:30:37 so that armeabi-v7a would be bigger than armeabi Oct 01 11:31:24 SimonVT you can have that call a function Oct 01 11:31:28 if it could do simple calculations in the versionCode entry it'd work.. Oct 01 11:31:30 You could probably create a method that generates version numbers for you Oct 01 11:31:35 minSdk buildMyMinSdk() Oct 01 11:32:02 bad example, but you get the idea ;) Oct 01 11:32:32 Set a variable to the new version code. Do +1, +2, etc in the different variants :p Oct 01 11:32:59 Or some other scheme Oct 01 11:33:00 this is where the gradle stuff is nice ;) Oct 01 11:33:22 http://eclipser.xmms2.org/git/xmms2-android.git/tree/AndroidManifest.xml only time I've had to write myself a memo on how to do this version code thing :p Oct 01 11:33:44 there was a maven plugin that did this, but stored a monotonically increasing number in a properties file Oct 01 11:34:09 some grab by commit # like if using svn Oct 01 11:34:18 one thing i like about svn, those commit numbers Oct 01 11:35:15 well changing one number manually and then having it calculate the versioncode for each abi from that would be sufficient for m Oct 01 11:35:18 e Oct 01 11:41:21 is it normal ,that i get width and height of my host, instead of virtual guest in debugger ? Oct 01 11:45:39 must leave now, see ya later ,thx so far,. Oct 01 11:51:41 Zharf if you still want to use your shell scripts you can also call them from gradle Oct 01 11:52:15 hi i need to see interaction of android ui with wifi driver .i want the parameters called to the driver . i have entire source can someone help me where to look Oct 01 11:52:41 in working directory Oct 01 11:53:17 maiatoday, if I can rename files after ndk-build is done, I won't need to Oct 01 11:55:06 http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/working_with_files.html there is a section on renaming files Oct 01 11:57:06 yeah I saw that, I'll need to try it Oct 01 11:57:32 is it possible to access a bluetooth packet's timestamp recorded at the system level? Oct 01 12:00:10 jeppy u need to access chip phy registers to get timestamp check if ur fw and driver support access to those registers Oct 01 12:08:37 What is the best way of unit testing sqlite database ? Oct 01 12:09:03 johannn, what do you want to unit test? Oct 01 12:09:04 The connection? Oct 01 12:09:07 The queries? Oct 01 12:09:57 test the queries are correct Oct 01 12:10:30 If you are using a content provider, use ProviderTestCase2 Oct 01 12:11:24 if you aren't and are just using SQLiteOpenHelper, then you should be able to get away with AndroidTestCase which provides getContext() Oct 01 12:13:14
