**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jul 05 02:59:59 2014 Jul 05 03:01:06 System.out.println("Hello World!"); Jul 05 03:05:17 hey guys, if I have a restful json API for Contacts on a website already working, is it hard to make a simple contact list app and sync the local DB with the API? I've hired a friend of mine who is now working with droid and it seems like he's taking an awful lot of time, is that a hard task? Jul 05 03:08:02 yakko well, the Contacts content provider is quite a beast Jul 05 03:08:25 and the data model is a little more complex Jul 05 03:08:48 why on earth does building with gradle take ages Jul 05 03:08:56 personally, i wouldn't touch it XD Jul 05 03:09:47 jug6ernaut command line or AS ? Jul 05 03:09:52 g00s AS Jul 05 03:10:05 sits at "configuring projects" for literally minutes Jul 05 03:10:07 hm, k. i think in process builds are on these days by default Jul 05 03:10:40 what does that mean lol Jul 05 03:11:36 i want to learn gradle, but its making it very hard to be motivated to use it lol Jul 05 03:11:49 sup g00s ! :) Jul 05 03:11:55 hello therue Jul 05 03:12:08 g00s like its still running, from when i said something 4 mins ago lol Jul 05 03:12:22 oh, thats messed up unless its downloading stuff Jul 05 03:12:30 or you have like 30 subprojects Jul 05 03:12:42 2 sub projects Jul 05 03:12:56 g00s: what is the best way to have a local database sync'd with a restful api then? Jul 05 03:13:00 idk if its downloading something, but it does it every time so i wouldn't thinkso Jul 05 03:13:00 are there any good video series on java that's worth watching? i'm reading a java book right now, and would love to find a quality video to watch as a supplement :D Jul 05 03:13:17 jug6ernaut my machine is very slow, and it never takes more than 20 seconds (still too slow) but Jul 05 03:13:27 therue google tutorials Jul 05 03:13:32 g00s hmm Jul 05 03:13:51 my project must be messed up Jul 05 03:14:03 jug6ernaut well what step is it stalling on ? Jul 05 03:14:06 this is my first attempt at gradle, so its more possible then not Jul 05 03:14:12 g00s "configuring projects" Jul 05 03:14:18 hmmmmm Jul 05 03:14:48 seriously guys, is it that hard? :( Jul 05 03:15:22 yakko so instead of syncing with contacts, you want to have a local db sync with your service ? Jul 05 03:16:36 g00s: this contact list has no relations with the phone's contacts, I want a local DB sync'd with a restful API Jul 05 03:16:58 and I need it for 6 resources/tables Jul 05 03:17:34 oh, if its your own database of contacts in your own app, and its not integrating with the official Contacts provider, that should be easier Jul 05 03:17:46 I was a bit sad when I realized my friend's job seemed quite like manual labor, is it common? is there any IDE that can help him? Jul 05 03:18:19 well, you can look at something like firebase Jul 05 03:18:26 i hear its pretty good Jul 05 03:19:07 but i don't know anything about your existing services , etc so i'm just guessing Jul 05 03:19:58 jug6ernaut if you find that the command line build is faster, i'd nuke the AS files Jul 05 03:20:09 and re-import Jul 05 03:20:23 hopefully your machine's ram isn't pegged :) Jul 05 03:20:37 g00s its a fresh import, but command line is definitely faster Jul 05 03:20:43 umm shouldn't be...let me see Jul 05 03:28:07 hm interesting http://www.theverge.com/2014/7/3/5868175/your-android-phone-could-be-leaking-your-wi-fi-history Jul 05 03:28:40 does PNO have to do that to function ? Jul 05 03:32:37 g00s figured it out Jul 05 03:33:00 jug6ernaut what was it ? Jul 05 03:33:36 old version of the sdk-manager-plugin plugin Jul 05 03:33:44 would redownload support lib every build Jul 05 03:33:55 and I'm currently on a REALLY slow connection Jul 05 03:34:02 which made it really bad Jul 05 03:34:12 wow Jul 05 03:34:24 well, now you are off to the races ! Jul 05 03:34:29 lol Jul 05 03:34:31 progress! Jul 05 03:35:44 the gradle stuff is pretty nice. slow, but nice. i'm simultaneously encouraged that it can handle the most complex situation i can think of; yet i'm terrified of actually having to delve into the plugin api if I absolutely have too :D Jul 05 03:36:16 well Jul 05 03:36:19 i really like maven Jul 05 03:36:35 only reason I'm learning gradle is the sdk-manager-plugin Jul 05 03:36:54 since this will be an open source library, i want it to be was easy to build as possible for ppl who dl the source Jul 05 03:36:56 heh. I never cared for maven, although it's better than ant Jul 05 03:37:15 * jug6ernaut <3's maven Jul 05 03:37:16 gradle has its issues, but it's the best java build tool I've used so far Jul 05 03:37:24 yeah Jul 05 03:37:27 I love the whole maven repository thing. but you get that with gradle too :) Jul 05 03:37:48 i haven't figured out how to publish to maven with gradle yet Jul 05 03:37:54 thats my next task Jul 05 03:38:01 heh, it's a bit of a pain :) Jul 05 03:38:07 great -_- Jul 05 03:38:17 maven's too hard to customize if you want to do something different Jul 05 03:38:27 it's declarative syntax isn't flexible enough Jul 05 03:38:35 in the enterprise, you have to decide if its best that a build engineer codify rules in a plugin, or let projects 'easily script' stuff more ad-hoc. maven is tough enough to modify and/or write plugins most don't try it Jul 05 03:38:49 yeah, exactly Jul 05 03:39:00 JesusFreke if u do it right, you should rarely need to do something different enough where it would be difficult in maven Jul 05 03:39:07 (imo at least) Jul 05 03:39:19 it really depends on what you're doing Jul 05 03:39:59 g00s i work in enterprise, if everything was in maven it would make it so much easier(at least in comparison to the ant pos build i work with) Jul 05 03:40:18 when you have HUGE codebases convention makes everything so much easier Jul 05 03:40:20 If there isn't already a plugin for , good luck! I ran into that in a number of cases for language related tools that I was using to build smali Jul 05 03:41:34 antlr, jflex, ragel, etc. Jul 05 03:41:46 i know non of these things lol Jul 05 03:41:52 not to mention building smali files themselves, for tests Jul 05 03:42:30 smali Jul 05 03:42:34 meh Jul 05 03:42:35 :P Jul 05 03:43:05 does the gradle antlr plugin work oK with the android build system? so many things assume the regular 'java' plugin Jul 05 03:43:07 if you're just doing ye olde java/Android application, then yeah. You typically shouldn't run into problems with maven Jul 05 03:43:18 dunno offhand Jul 05 03:45:23 g00s: seriously, is it hard to just sync a database with a restful json api? it's real industry standard where I come from =) Jul 05 03:46:00 yakko apparently not if it doesnt exist lol Jul 05 03:46:00 yakko i guess that depends on how complex the data model is, and how fine grain the conflict resolution is Jul 05 03:47:09 one day i was strolling around in the book store and i came across this http://www.amazon.com/Synchronization-Algorithms-Concurrent-Programming-Taubenfeld/dp/0131972596 Jul 05 03:47:18 i thought "oh cool , a fucking book on synchronizing!" Jul 05 03:47:38 g00s, how long have you been programming in java? Jul 05 03:47:45 and then i quickly found out it was about concurrency instead :( Jul 05 03:48:19 therue hmm, well i did java EE for a few years, then android. i don't really keep up with the EE stuff any more Jul 05 03:48:34 at the time, J2EE was out, Spring was in ... Jul 05 03:48:39 now Spring is out ... Jul 05 03:48:45 fuck spring Jul 05 03:48:50 something else is in, i have no idea :) Jul 05 03:49:02 :P Jul 05 03:49:13 it started out with noble goal, then it became everything j2ee was Jul 05 03:49:19 g00s it doesnt matter whats in & out in j2ee enterprise Jul 05 03:49:23 and osgi, and all that crap Jul 05 03:49:26 bc the projects are all 10 years old -_- Jul 05 03:49:59 yeah … all using enterprise java beans, etc Jul 05 03:50:05 gah Jul 05 03:50:12 and piles of xml :) Jul 05 03:50:24 and struts Jul 05 03:50:24 1 Jul 05 03:50:25 -_- Jul 05 03:50:35 hehe, JSP oh crap that sucked too Jul 05 03:50:41 yup Jul 05 03:50:46 g00s i just got a new job Jul 05 03:50:48 java server faces was coming along when i got out Jul 05 03:50:59 i see java classes first written in 2010 Jul 05 03:51:01 using java 4 Jul 05 03:51:05 JAVA FOUR Jul 05 03:51:16 4 fields Jul 05 03:51:20 all strings Jul 05 03:51:50 jug6ernaut java is a pretty simple language ; it just makes concurrency kinda hard to get right ;) Jul 05 03:51:57 gosh, firebase suddenly looks like a godsend Jul 05 03:51:59 generics takes more than 10 minutes to master Jul 05 03:52:03 g00s my main issue Jul 05 03:52:12 is raw classes everywhere Jul 05 03:52:14 Map Jul 05 03:52:16 List Jul 05 03:52:22 it makes the code a nightmare to read Jul 05 03:53:42 scala looks like a nightmare to read too Jul 05 03:54:11 i always dreaded reading other people's C++ code Jul 05 03:54:12 never touched scala Jul 05 03:54:33 i'd give it a try in the enterprise Jul 05 03:54:51 as if i could choose what i use -_- Jul 05 03:55:03 i would start with intellj Jul 05 03:55:06 but … without being knowledgeable about it; my friend says its such a large language, its easy to come across somebody elses weird ass scala stuff Jul 05 03:55:08 * jug6ernaut is forced to use eclipse Jul 05 03:55:53 jug6ernaut oh yeah a new eclipse came out the other day Jul 05 03:56:07 yep eee Jul 05 03:56:08 lol Jul 05 03:56:13 :D Jul 05 03:56:46 g00s one of my favorite pieces of code I've seen so far Jul 05 03:57:09 a method that maps an enum to a month string(bc the enum couldn't have the string in itself for some reason lol) Jul 05 03:57:10 but Jul 05 03:57:37 was like this case blah: return "April".trim().toString(); Jul 05 03:58:12 oh my Jul 05 03:59:00 lol Jul 05 03:59:03 yeah :S Jul 05 03:59:17 did they at least use EnumMap :P Jul 05 04:00:58 lol no Jul 05 04:01:08 remember the java 4 :P Jul 05 04:04:27 hey g00s Jul 05 04:04:29 whats going down?

Jul 05 04:07:29 calling Boolean rc = new com.itcuties.android.apps.myapp.checkInternetConnected().execute().get(); from within an async task (the command calls an async task… well it blocks all subsequent calls to it … any ideas? Jul 05 04:07:41 and freezes up my threads Jul 05 04:07:58 yeah, sounds about right jaspertheghost :) Jul 05 04:08:08 its called 'deadlock' Jul 05 04:08:24 any suggestions*?

Jul 05 05:51:53 fuck yea yea Jul 05 05:51:59 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7417123/android-how-to-adjust-layout-in-full-screen-mode-when-softkeyboard-is-visible/19494006#19494006 Jul 05 06:01:39 Can anybody help me in solving the error http://pastebin.com/DVUqXvi5 Jul 05 06:08:47 paste the code that your using Jul 05 06:19:17 hi Jul 05 06:19:39 i need to invoke the gallery and fetch all the images in my app. then allow the user to multi select and do some action on them like sharing. how do i go about doing that? Jul 05 07:10:48 compiling against sdk version 19 and Build.VERSION_CODES javadocs no longer give the value. Annoying Jul 05 08:18:46 jaspertheghost, do u want me to paste the code in pastebin Jul 05 08:19:55 http://pastebin.com/sEXS398H Jul 05 08:20:07 And the error was in http://pastebin.com/DVUqXvi5 Jul 05 08:25:58 Hello, Jul 05 08:42:51 In an ASyncTask does the onPostExecute run on the main thread? Jul 05 08:46:24 Also, this might a very stupid question, but i have used the .execute().get() command of my ASyncTask to get the result but then i think whats the point of the ASyncTask if i am waiting for the result anyway? Jul 05 08:47:05 .get() on an AsyncTask runs in the UI thread (correct me if Im wrong) Jul 05 08:48:18 But i thought the whole point of an ASyncTask is that it doesnt run in the UI thread? Jul 05 08:50:21 you should move the code that waits for the .get() to onPostExeceute Jul 05 08:51:02 then it will be executed *when* the async completes and not hold up the calling thread Jul 05 08:51:46 Alternatively you could create a call back class - I have an example of that somewhere. Give me a sec Jul 05 08:56:11 Oh okay yeah this is making sense. For some reason i didnt think you could make changes to the Acticity from the ASyncTask but i think its just doInBackground that is restricted from doing this. Jul 05 08:58:11 Anything new on ListView drag&drop reordering? Jul 05 09:02:57 can I get help for http://pastebin.com/DVUqXvi5 Jul 05 09:08:10 AKK9 check out https://gist.github.com/ed-george/8097940a2b2a55d036c5 Jul 05 09:08:27 something I have just thrown together now - so sorry if it doesnt work Jul 05 09:08:30 havent tested Jul 05 09:10:21 niru You still having issues with the maps? Jul 05 09:10:56 Thanks EdGeorge Jul 05 09:11:08 EdGeorge, I am just one step back to have the map view. I am able to see the grid tiles on the emulator but no map:( Jul 05 09:11:36 AKK9 let me know if you want it explained - but it's a relatively simple thing :) Jul 05 09:12:42 niru Does it require to have Google Play Services on the emulator? I forget what map lib you are using but that is usually an issue with maps/emulators Jul 05 09:13:26 EdGeorge, no it does not require a google pay service Jul 05 09:13:42 EdGeorge was going to figure it out myself but would really appreciate if you could explain that. Jul 05 09:13:43 niru Ok cool. Jul 05 09:13:53 AKK9 sure I will PM you Jul 05 09:13:54 I am using osmdroid libraries Jul 05 09:15:57 ok Jul 05 09:18:40 niru to me, it looks like your emulator not being connected with the internet miught be the problem Jul 05 09:18:53 I suggest googling how to do that, or test on a real device Jul 05 09:19:10 EdGeorge, I tried that :( I added dns-server 8.8.8.8 in the emulator configuration Jul 05 09:20:18 I personally use real-devices to test, so I have no experience in emulator config Jul 05 09:21:24 EdGeorge, I think problem is something else. let me paste the error that I am seeing when in debug mode Jul 05 09:21:59 http://pastebin.com/RDZNj8Eb Jul 05 09:25:40 niru Well that error clearly suggests its trying to open a .zip file and it's failing - are you sure you have imported osmdroid to your project correctly Jul 05 09:25:54 do you need to place any files in the assets folder? Jul 05 09:27:17 hmm I have imported all the libs correctly. Jul 05 09:29:50 EdGeorge, Even I guess its libraries issue Jul 05 09:30:10 let me try cleaning my project and import libraries afresh Jul 05 09:32:32 * EdGeorge if in doubt. CLEAN! Jul 05 09:32:47 lol niru ok :) Jul 05 09:41:03 hey guys Jul 05 09:41:18 Im getting a strange error with db.delete(), "Too many bind arguments, takes 0 and given 1" Jul 05 09:41:59 Sicp have you got a LogCat error you can place on pastebin Jul 05 09:42:00 while delete actually takes 3 arguments... Jul 05 09:42:25 yea one sec Jul 05 09:42:50 http://pastie.org/9357436 Jul 05 09:43:06 the culprit line is below the exception Jul 05 09:44:15 delete takes (table, whereclause and whereargs) Jul 05 09:44:23 why would it say it takes 0.. Jul 05 09:45:54 lol, NO ONE has faced this on the Internet Jul 05 09:51:34 Sicp relatively simple probs dont worry :) Jul 05 09:52:10 er, do you understand what bind arguments are? Jul 05 09:52:16 issue is you have no 'placeholders' in the where clause but provide one bind argument Jul 05 09:52:25 it's not complaining about the Java, it's complaining about the SQL Jul 05 09:52:40 yes I know about the SQL, but from Java i gave it its arguments to construct the SQL Jul 05 09:52:42 Sicp actually, I just found this too Jul 05 09:52:44 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11458707/batch-delete-items-with-content-provider-in-android Jul 05 09:53:16 Sicp yes, but did you add a place holder i.e a question mark in the WHERE Jul 05 09:53:59 JakeWharton: are calls to picasso's load() function async? i wish to call a future's get() function in the body of a function call that i pass to load() in order to block the background thread Jul 05 09:54:05 ah you mean it should be the same, but for the last one a question mark, then after it the String ID Jul 05 09:54:56 yea I dont understand how they work obviously Jul 05 09:55:48 Sicp It's an easy fix. Just check that SO link, it's fairly obvious Jul 05 09:56:18 oh it should be passed to it Jul 05 09:58:13 ohhh I have it done this way in another query Jul 05 09:58:20 no idea why this one is botched Jul 05 09:59:10 ty Jul 05 09:59:29 No problem Sicp Jul 05 10:12:28 hi anyone wanna help me out? just updated to newest android studio and now I cant run my project.
