**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Feb 17 02:59:58 2015 Feb 17 03:01:08 g00s: i dunno, would have to have a play.. but i gtg.. talk more about it tomoz if you want Feb 17 03:03:42 pretty hard getting toolbar to look nice < lollipop Feb 17 03:03:48 Anyone feel like looking over an ERD I made for my app's database backend? Feb 17 03:13:34 Levite using the framelayout way, presumably with toolbar and spinner as direct children, how would i align my spinner with the toolbar actions ? Feb 17 03:14:01 i always think what i'm doing should be so easy :) Feb 17 03:14:13 the spinner is in the top row? Feb 17 03:15:08 Wouldn't the spinner still be a direct child of the toolbar? Feb 17 03:15:09 no, just wondering how i'd align it - sure it won't be perfect without work Feb 17 03:15:21 you mean align it vertically with the menu items? Feb 17 03:15:32 ooh, ok the spinner is in the toolbar Feb 17 03:15:45 and the title is just your own thing floating in the framelayout with the toolbar Feb 17 03:15:48 using the padding aproach the height stays the same so it should just work Feb 17 03:16:21 toolbar seems to act just like a linearlayout Feb 17 03:17:13 right Feb 17 03:17:34 making it a child of the toolbar positions it correctly Feb 17 03:19:48 Levite so how does one do this ? Feb 17 03:19:50 http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2014/10/material-design-on-android-checklist.html Feb 17 03:20:02 i was under the impression, that the tabs were *in* the toolbar Feb 17 03:20:50 maybe they are just sitting below it ? Feb 17 03:21:26 toolbar doesn't let you put things at the bottom of it Feb 17 03:21:47 ah good to know. now i wont wrestle with it trying :) Feb 17 03:23:40 you might take a look at this https://github.com/ksoichiro/Android-ObservableScrollView Feb 17 03:23:45 they have a viewpager example with tabs Feb 17 03:24:48 yeah, that top right one - thanks Feb 17 03:26:26 looks like they're sticking the tabs in a linearlayout Feb 17 03:26:45 i needed a tighter spacing between the toolbar content and the tabs though which is why I went in another direction Feb 17 03:26:48 Levite still looking for the file, do you have the link ? Feb 17 03:27:00 like this https://github.com/ksoichiro/Android-ObservableScrollView/blob/master/observablescrollview-samples/res/layout/activity_viewpagertab.xml Feb 17 03:27:33 ahh, ok thanks Feb 17 03:28:40 You can put stuff at the bottom of a Toolbar (e.g., see ), but it will have a gap on the left if you have a navigation icon and a gap on the right if you have a menu. Feb 17 03:28:58 So, as far as I can tell, you would need something separate underneath the Toolbar to achieve those tabs. Feb 17 03:30:11 yeah it looks crappy Feb 17 03:30:14 On a side note, I wish that guy would stop confusing it's/its, your/you're, etc. Drives me crazy. Feb 17 03:30:44 TacticalJoke: its obvious your crazy Feb 17 03:31:07 I read "has special handling for it's minimum height" as "has special handling for IT IS minimum height". Feb 17 03:33:03 sheesh, i get so confused with app:theme and whats overlaying what with this contextwrapper or that Feb 17 03:33:47 Yeah, that stuff is unnecessarily complicated, IMO. Feb 17 03:34:06 The overlay thing seems to be simply about showing pure white or pure black icons/whatever on a Toolbar. Feb 17 03:34:23 how often do the SDK tools get updated Feb 17 03:34:29 I feel neglected Feb 17 03:34:37 i haven't seen any updates in a while Feb 17 03:36:02 I think you can avoid the overlay thing entirely if you set "android:textColorPrimary" and "colorControlNormal" to a particular colour. Feb 17 03:36:17 As far as I remember, using that overlay thing simply sets those two to either white or black. Feb 17 03:36:37 What is the best UI widget to use for taking in a duration of time (for example 30 minutes). Just a EditText with input type set to number? Feb 17 03:37:00 depends on its purpose Feb 17 03:37:24 I've never tried it, but how about these: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/controls/pickers.html Feb 17 03:37:28 if it's something they'll be setting frequently a custom button dialog would be best Feb 17 03:38:54 if it's a "set occasionally" thing then a timepicker works fine Feb 17 03:38:55 i dont think the time picker allows getting rid of am/pm ... am i wrong? Feb 17 03:39:09 which would make it unsuitable for durations Feb 17 03:39:43 yeah you have to monkey with it to remove the ampm Feb 17 03:40:00 Oh. Ya, I misread the question. Feb 17 03:40:31 these things were implemented by interns maybe Feb 17 03:41:39 How about NumberPicker? Feb 17 03:41:48 http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/NumberPicker.html Feb 17 03:42:31 but is there an easy way to jump to an arbitrary value? Feb 17 03:42:34 Though its coupling with the current theme sounds weird. Feb 17 03:42:49 TacticalJoke: That might work. Didn't know such a widget existed. Feb 17 03:43:03 It seems to involve an EditText at some point. Feb 17 03:43:34 the app "Beautiful Timer" has one of the better duration picking controls I've seen Feb 17 03:43:36 You know what's crazy? We don't get to see the widget on those widget reference pages. Why couldn't they show it. Feb 17 03:43:40 jerkface03 what i've done in the past, kinda lame, is have logarithmic scale: 1min, 2min, 5min , 10min, 20min, 30min, 1hr ,etc in a listview Feb 17 03:43:42 I know! Feb 17 03:43:47 I always thought that was ridiculous Feb 17 03:44:00 you have to resort to Google Images Feb 17 03:44:03 Yeah. Feb 17 03:44:19 Almost every class should have an example, and every UI widget should have a screenshot. Feb 17 03:44:38 and i think each ecample in the material spec should have a xml snippet Feb 17 03:44:49 Yeah, that'd be something. Feb 17 03:44:51 the eclipse graphical xml thing lets you preview them, dunno if AS has something similar Feb 17 03:45:05 The material spec right now is "Check out this awesome design. Good luck actually implementing it". Feb 17 03:45:11 my expectations are just based on all the apis and frameworks i've used before android - they are really lacking Feb 17 03:45:20 Yeah, in AS you can even preview while typing the XML. Feb 17 03:45:39 didn't matter if it was roguewave c++ libraries, seems back in the day the docs were just amazing Feb 17 03:45:41 apple doesn't have screenshots in their docs, but they also have an awesome WYSIWYG layout builder Feb 17 03:45:45 Same here, g00s. Feb 17 03:45:56 I spent most of my development life on Windows, and documentation was always brilliant. Feb 17 03:46:01 Even for Win32 and MFC and so on. Feb 17 03:46:18 and MS Press would have plenty of authoritative books too Feb 17 03:46:32 i remember the 2 volumes of MFC i had to read X.x Feb 17 03:46:35 Yeah, like Ivor Horton. :D Feb 17 03:46:40 God, I hated MFC. Feb 17 03:46:46 Petzold, etc yeah Feb 17 03:46:59 Haha. I remember that name. Feb 17 03:47:20 I'm so glad I found Delphi when I did. Way nicer than VC++ back then. Feb 17 03:47:33 Borland never got the popularity they deserved. Feb 17 03:47:41 i remember when vc++ didn't even have templates :| Feb 17 03:47:49 for a looong time Feb 17 03:47:58 I vaguely recall that. Feb 17 03:48:02 way longer than borland Feb 17 03:48:26 but they got herb sutter, and things came around Feb 17 03:48:50 I used to be a totally loyal Borland guy. I even used Borland C++ 5, I think. Feb 17 03:48:56 i.e., not Borland C++ Builder. Feb 17 03:49:10 And it had its ugly icons and everything. :D Feb 17 03:49:24 (I mean the IDE.) Feb 17 03:49:44 i think at this point, google figures - the important apps will be by companies, maybe with android teams of 2-10 and they can tough it out with poor docs Feb 17 03:50:43 I always hated C++, though. It was just a mess. So glad there were other options (e.g., Delphi and C#). Feb 17 03:51:26 i guess on WP you can use C++, C#, and F#. iOS would be C/C++,obj-c,swift. each platform tools officially support those options Feb 17 03:51:40 android is way behind there, just java and gimped c++ via ndk Feb 17 03:51:47 c/c++ Feb 17 03:52:19 welcome to the "beta is good enough" world Feb 17 03:52:21 i'm just waiting for everything to get folded into chrome Feb 17 03:52:23 Oh, man, if we could use C#. Feb 17 03:52:27 It's not perfect, but it's so nice. Feb 17 03:52:39 i was reading about c# 6 exception filters Feb 17 03:52:41 Simplicity and power. Feb 17 03:53:14 Java is simplicity and power. C# is power. Feb 17 03:53:20 if i was doing WP i'd try F# Feb 17 03:53:24 Do you think you'd use them much, g00s? Feb 17 03:53:25 hehe Feb 17 03:53:34 To be honest, I'm not very excited about new C# features. Feb 17 03:53:38 In general. Feb 17 03:53:55 C# 6 stuff seemed like syntactic sugar, but nice things Feb 17 03:57:24 This is an interesting post by Eric Lippert about functional programming: http://stackoverflow.com/a/2835936 Feb 17 03:57:38 name sounds familiar Feb 17 03:57:54 He did a lot of work on the C# compiler, I think. Feb 17 03:59:24 Very famous guy in the ms and language world Feb 17 04:01:00 I was surprised to see him so openly anti-functional. When I used to hang around in the C# world, all of the big names were talking about how they were gonna move to F#. Feb 17 04:01:09 And how it was just a matter of time. Feb 17 04:02:06 We're slowly on the way where people recognize that functional is very, very far from the silver bullet fans have been depicting Feb 17 04:07:00 deuteros__ are there any features missing from kotlin that you wish it had ? Feb 17 04:07:25 i guess they used to have tuples but took them out :( Feb 17 04:07:51 Higher kinded types would be nice but I think they cross the threshold that makes Kotlin appealing Feb 17 04:08:59 interesting Feb 17 04:09:44 Ceylon is a better language for more advanced features like HKT, Kotlin is in a very good place as it stands Feb 17 04:10:56 deuteros__ does ceylon have a good tooling story ? Feb 17 04:17:40 "A train carrying more than 100 tankers of crude oil derailed in southern West Virginia on Monday" ... why do these thing keep happening in west virginia :|} Feb 17 04:18:07 "sending at least one tanker into the Kanawha River, igniting at least 14 " Feb 17 04:44:11 JakeWharton: I think you handled it last time, but: OkHttp has a bunch of spam wiki pages :| they're visible in the "pages" dropdown thing. Feb 17 04:44:19 ok Feb 17 04:44:21 i'll lock it Feb 17 04:45:58 groxx: fixed. thanks. <3 wiki's a git repos Feb 17 04:46:25 heh. yeah, it's a good idea :) Feb 17 05:01:48 g00s: I don't have much practical experience with Ceylon but they are developing their Eclipse plug-in in lockstep with the language, like JetBrains is doing with Kotlin, so I'm reasonably optimisti Feb 17 05:02:11 something the Typesafe people still don't know how to do Feb 17 05:17:25 Whats the best way to get the value of a clicked check box? Feb 17 05:20:40 Im guessing checkbox.getText() would work Feb 17 05:22:26 checkbox.isChecked ? Feb 17 05:22:44 would I pass a method in there? Feb 17 05:22:50 or would that return a boolean Feb 17 05:24:01 drose379 wut O.o Feb 17 05:24:09 Nevermind :) Feb 17 05:50:52 meh, when i do extended height toolbar with no child views, the title is too close to the bottom, maybe 2dp from the edge Feb 17 06:07:17 padding it Feb 17 06:07:23 s/padding/pad/ Feb 17 06:23:10 Has anyone ever had to work with Appcelerator Titanium? Is it as soul-draining as it sounds for a person experienced in native development? Feb 17 06:23:38 heh Feb 17 06:23:48 I'm pretty sure I'm about to be offered a job using that and I'm not sure whether it's even worth taking, other than that fact that it gets me into a place I want to be (geographically) Feb 17 06:24:23 Or is it something I should be able to deal with for 1-2 years until I can find a better thing? Feb 17 06:25:10 Might as well tell my recruiter up-front that I'm not interested if it's too bad. Feb 17 06:26:58 Then again, I know I could excel at the job because Javascript is fucking easy and I'd be able to work out bugs faster since I know native dev. Feb 17 06:27:19 I think the company is actually looking for someone to do Titanium who already has native experience. Worth 60K? Feb 17 06:33:24 that's for you to decide Feb 17 06:34:10 JavaDog you'l have to change your nick to TitaniumDog Feb 17 06:34:27 JavaScriptDog Feb 17 06:35:12 Let me tell you what happened today Feb 17 06:35:36 After 4 attempts to schedule an introductory interview with a company, I finally had one scheduled Feb 17 06:36:08 They included a hangouts video invite with the calendar invitation once it was confirmed. Feb 17 06:36:12 So I had that running too Feb 17 06:36:30 No call at the scheduled time. Great. Feb 17 06:36:44 Get an email saying "hey your phone was busy when I called at the scheduled time" Feb 17 06:36:49 nooooo it was not Feb 17 06:36:59 JavaDog: please take this to another channel Feb 17 06:37:13 I've gotta get it out, man. This shit kills me Feb 17 06:37:24 Get it out somewhere else? Feb 17 06:37:57 eh, fine, whatever. But you'll miss out on the ability to circlejerk about corporate america with me. Feb 17 06:38:21 Go to #java-talk, your rant will be very welcome Feb 17 06:38:38 haha, I'll keep that in mind next time I have a rant Feb 17 06:42:17 Anyone have an idea why my app closes after being in the bg for a long time? Feb 17 06:42:49 AndreYonadam: The OS does that Feb 17 06:43:33 unless it is foreground service Feb 17 06:45:59 deuteros__: Is there anyway I can keep it running Feb 17 06:46:23 I think a service can start it up again with an intent Feb 17 06:46:39 But I don't think that's a good way to do it since it could possibly interrupt what's already happening Feb 17 06:46:52 I tried to retain the state for that activities manifest Feb 17 06:46:55 *in the manifest Feb 17 06:47:17 There are ways to have the OS restart it right away and depending on the OS, to keep it running all the time. Not very recommended, thoug, it's not a friendly behavior Feb 17 06:47:52 AndreYonadam you'll have to save / restore state to be a good citizen Feb 17 06:47:54 AndreYonadam: What does your app do? Feb 17 06:48:00 deuteros__: I need to check the GPS location compared to something constantly in a listener which is currently in my activity. Feb 17 06:48:05 Do you think I can do that in a service? Feb 17 06:48:15 AndreYonadam: "constantly"? You sure about that? Sounds like a battery killer Feb 17 06:48:25 deuteros__: There is an interval Feb 17 06:48:31 Any Android Studio users getting "No Android facet found for module error"? Feb 17 06:48:40 But I still need to check it in the bg Feb 17 06:50:10 deuteros__: Do you think a service would be fit to do so? Feb 17 06:50:38 AndreYonadam: Read the Service section, the foreground part. However, I still think it's not appropriate to do this for your case Feb 17 06:52:16 Yeah I'm gonna take a look at it. I don't think there are any similar options that would give me the same solution unless I only do checks when the app is open. Feb 17 06:52:52 AndreYonadam: Also I suggest you take a strong look at the battery consumption of your app, pretty sure it would cause most users to uninstall it very quickly because of the battery drain Feb 17 06:54:42 deuteros__: Yeah. I did some research on GPS use and battery drain. I tried using the network which was extremely inaccurate. I'm going to try to give users options though. Or maybe look at ways to minimize the drain while using the gps unit. Feb 17 07:26:12 heya guys, is there a way to prevent the DrawerLayout to show the fragment view with a different animation? like i wanted the navigation drawer to fade in rather than slide from the sides. Feb 17 07:39:53 so 5.1 devices are out in the wild, but no announcement, emu images, etc ... Feb 17 07:40:24 hopefully uts not much of a change, so no announcement was warranted O.o Feb 17 07:57:58 good morning world Feb 17 08:00:25 hey lemonxah hows it going Feb 17 08:00:33 ag its going ok Feb 17 08:00:40 bored of working for this place Feb 17 08:01:28 bleh .. so i am keeping an eye out here for helping ppl and looking over stackoverflow Feb 17 08:01:34 how are you doing? Feb 17 08:02:29 hm ok. writing this nasty parser for a protocol /embedded/ in bluetooth low energy Feb 17 08:02:44 sounds like more fun than i am having :) Feb 17 08:03:09 lemonxah you can fun++ by playing with kotlin :) Feb 17 08:03:45 not for this place though that was personal project Feb 17 08:03:48 this place is super boring Feb 17 08:11:57 <_genuser_> getView(position, arg1, arg2) for BaseAdapter checks if mValues[position].endsWidth("unsupported") and sets the StrikeThru flag on a textbox. Feb 17 08:12:15 <_genuser_> odd thing is for one item, this condition isn't true and it still ends up setting the strikethru flag. Feb 17 08:12:50 <_genuser_> anybody seen this kinda odd behavior before. If I comment out the strikethru line, all strikethrus disappear so it's definitely this line causing it. Feb 17 08:13:21 _genuser_, are you reusing views? ie. convertView? Feb 17 08:13:44 you are reusing the same view as previous ones if you are using convertView Feb 17 08:13:59 and the textbox in that view will allready have the strike thru value set Feb 17 08:14:09 you have to reset all values on the textbox before setting them Feb 17 08:15:12 <_genuser_> lemonxah: I suppose so. I'm only inflating a new one is convertView is null. Feb 17 08:15:24 yes then that is the issue Feb 17 08:15:44 the first few while there is no views for the viewcontainer to re-use they will all work Feb 17 08:15:52 <_genuser_> "one", "two", "three (unsupported)", "four", "five" Feb 17 08:15:54 but as soon as the viewcontainer starts reusing views Feb 17 08:16:03 <_genuser_> and it _always_ set's the flag on item 1 and 3. Feb 17 08:16:05 then you have to reset the values Feb 17 08:16:15 please show the code Feb 17 08:16:36 there is no way to tell you whats wrong without code really just speculations Feb 17 08:16:41 <_genuser_> I think let me clear the textbox and if it doesn't fix it, I'll pastebin it. Feb 17 08:16:54 <_genuser_> yeah, you're right, without code it's just speculation. Feb 17 08:17:57 <_genuser_> first, I disable re-using views. Feb 17 08:18:08 clear the setting fo the stikeThru before you try set it Feb 17 08:18:24 <_genuser_> yep, thats was it. I'll re-enable re-using views and clear the textbox first. Feb 17 08:19:10 <_genuser_> thanks for the quick help. I was logging this and seeing that the if wasn't run and wasn't sure it was still striking thru. Feb 17 08:19:33 sure no worries Feb 17 08:20:26 glad i could help :) Feb 17 08:21:59 <_genuser_> :) Feb 17 08:43:13 its like this channel died Feb 17 08:47:09 lemonxah have you messed with rx before ? Feb 17 08:47:17 rxjava? Feb 17 08:47:22 not really Feb 17 08:47:24 yes Feb 17 08:47:50 did a little bit of reactive extensions in .net a few yeaers ago but i doubt i would be able to recall it all that well Feb 17 08:50:11 g00s, does that not have the same flaws as AsyncTask does on android? Feb 17 08:50:26 i mean if you declare the observer in that code what happens on config change? Feb 17 08:51:03 lemonxah do you remember how the async mqtt client worked ? Feb 17 08:51:19 yeah kinda Feb 17 08:51:47 they had this stupid limit, i think 10 - when you published but the client couldn't keep up it threw an exception Feb 17 08:51:52 max in flight thing Feb 17 08:51:58 yes Feb 17 08:52:25 i was trying to convince the paho guys they needed to implement something like rx backpressure , like those operators - block, drop, etc Feb 17 08:52:38 but what they have now is idiotic Feb 17 08:53:04 i haven't even used the new paho lib yet Feb 17 08:54:09 its behavior in that regard is the same Feb 17 08:56:52 so i am going to need to do a mqtt client soonish for work is there something else that you would recommend? Feb 17 08:56:55 in place of paho? Feb 17 08:58:22 not really. what will you use it for ? Feb 17 08:58:36 replacement for googles notifications Feb 17 08:58:49 replace gcm ? Feb 17 08:58:52 yeah Feb 17 08:59:19 on an operating system that doesn't have gcm Feb 17 08:59:19 hm. i dont't think you're going to be able to get it as tuned as GCM wrt power consumption Feb 17 08:59:28 oh, so not android Feb 17 08:59:31 yeah gonna try at least Feb 17 08:59:34 it is android Feb 17 08:59:39 just not with gapps Feb 17 08:59:42 oooh thats right Feb 17 09:00:04 well, fb did that but they made some modifications to the protocol Feb 17 09:00:41 yeah i might do the same thing but i didn't want to make a new mqtt client straight away while testing and playing with it Feb 17 09:01:25 but i might end up writing a client and server(modified) Feb 17 09:02:10 wonder if facebook opensourced their thing Feb 17 09:04:17 i dont think so Feb 17 09:05:13 lemonxah i recall they had to tune by carrier also, each one had different tcpip idle drop Feb 17 09:05:39 fun days ahead Feb 17 09:05:48 i dont mind struggling to get stuff done when its interesting Feb 17 09:42:27 Morning All Feb 17 09:45:49 hi Feb 17 09:46:03 how can we be of assistance Feb 17 09:46:52 lemonxah: are you asking me? Feb 17 09:47:13 yeah Feb 17 09:47:15 I'm here every day ;) Feb 17 09:47:22 was just making sure ") Feb 17 09:47:29 cause i am bored .. hehe Feb 17 09:47:41 if I come across anything I'll let you know :p Feb 17 10:02:04 lol Feb 17 10:03:07 ? Feb 17 10:05:17 Anyone familiar with using downloadManager.request addRequestHeader? My main goal is to like request.addRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since", dateFormat.format(file.lastModified())); to check if file had been modified since a date Feb 17 10:05:57 Unsure what to do at this point if anyone has some docs or example for what I am trying to accomplish Feb 17 10:20:58 Hi , I am Using openCV to detect people in a image , but it detect face only when someone is watching the camera , can i detect people who are not watching to camera as well as people , I want to count people in a image Feb 17 10:23:27 hi all, my accelerometer z axis is off by factor -1, how do i fix this? Feb 17 11:17:01 Hi all, is it possible to use a PagerTitleStrip for 'fixed' tabs? Feb 17 11:17:50 should be able to Feb 17 11:18:02 having a "fixed" array Feb 17 11:18:52 lemonxah, there not fixed if I use something like this http://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/lateral.html#PagerTitleStrip for only 2 tabs Feb 17 11:19:22 what do you mean fixed? as in fixed length and order? Feb 17 11:19:27 or fixed as in they look like tabs? Feb 17 11:20:25 fixed like this: http://material-design.storage.googleapis.com/publish/v_2/material_ext_publish/0Bx4BSt6jniD7bVBGcHYzNWtPT00/components_tabs_usage_mobile1.png Feb 17 11:21:42 those are tabs yeah .. i dont think you would be able to do that no Feb 17 11:22:20 there is a tabstrip that kind of works like that Feb 17 11:22:26 and it will move along with more Feb 17 11:22:56 like if there are 4 it will show the first 3 like that but then scrolling to the right you will only see the forth one once you hit the the third one Feb 17 11:24:05 trying to remember the library name ... Feb 17 11:25:32 FrancescoV, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uywh_BBikY4 that is what it worked like Feb 17 11:25:37 that is what i used for it Feb 17 11:25:42 i mean i used it for Feb 17 11:26:59 Thanks! Feb 17 11:28:03 is that what you are looking for ? Feb 17 11:30:52 oh FrancescoV the thing i used wasn't a title strip it was sliding tabs :( soz .. http://www.pushing-pixels.org/2013/05/09/android-bits-and-pieces-sliding-tabs-madness.html Feb 17 11:31:56 hey, is there any way to force a generic param to be an interface. Feb 17 11:32:18 im getting “interface expected here” when trying to use a generic Feb 17 11:33:11 lemonxah: it helped me but it's for a little demo app, maybe there will be more than 2 taps and sliding tabs will be great Feb 17 11:33:27 ok cool Feb 17 11:33:54 samskiter, show the code please :) pastebin Feb 17 11:36:45 lemonxah: http://pastebin.com/Tkd4Dbsd Feb 17 11:36:57 i get “interface expected here” on “Listener” ? Feb 17 11:37:12 so how do i restrict “Listener” appropriately Feb 17 11:39:20 there shouldn't be anything there samskiter Feb 17 11:39:24 its a static method Feb 17 11:39:45 evening Feb 17 11:39:49 Hi guys Feb 17 11:39:54 lemonxah: the static isn’t the problem Feb 17 11:40:16 Can you recommend me any database library to develop easy and faster all local database stuff? Feb 17 11:40:18 i need to restrict my “Listener” generic to be an interface Feb 17 11:40:25 yeah but there shouldn't go anything in there you are not using the type in that example that you gave Feb 17 11:40:44 How to make a bitmap serializable? Feb 17 11:40:47 I found this Feb 17 11:40:48 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5871482/serializing-and-de-serializing-android-graphics-bitmap-in-java Feb 17 11:40:50 lemonxah: so how do i stop the error “interface expected here” on line 3 Feb 17 11:40:52 but how to use it? Feb 17 11:41:45 lemonxah: the param after the ‘&’ must be an interface. so my [WHAT GOES HERE?] needs to restrict listener to be an interface. surely this is possible? Feb 17 11:43:02 samskiter, it needs to be an interface int he bounded type parameters Feb 17 11:43:10 concrete types and interfaces Feb 17 11:43:24 so Feb 17 11:43:36 the Interface you specify there cant be a generic type Feb 17 11:43:43 as i understand it Feb 17 11:43:47 but let me test this Feb 17 11:44:08 i've got a button defined in my xml fragment. The fragment is loaded from a Fragment class myFragment. How can I define a button.onClick() to direct to a method in the myFragment class rather than a class in MainActivity? Feb 17 11:44:39 I tried setting the tools:context to ".myFragment" but that didn't do it Feb 17 11:46:42 oh, I have to overwrite the onClickListener? Feb 17 11:46:51 yes samskiter you cant have a generic type in the bounded type params Feb 17 11:47:40 lemonxah: thanks. that’s crappy Feb 17 11:47:59 not really you just have to change the design a bit Feb 17 11:48:16 just use a base listener interface which others extend Feb 17 11:50:33 lemonxah: that won’t really give me what I want. Want to make sure than an activity instantiating this object implements and interface Feb 17 11:50:36 crappy doo Feb 17 12:00:27 Hey Feb 17 12:00:32 hi Feb 17 12:01:28 If I wanted to capture all http data sent/received by facebook messenger on an android device, what would be the simplest way to accomplish that? I have the emulator up and running at the moment and I noticed the tcpdump option which is great, but I don't seem to have access to the play store and I don't wanna download a random .apk from somewhere. Feb 17 12:02:13 there are a few genymotion emulaters with gapps installed Feb 17 12:02:17 you could use one of those Feb 17 12:02:43 thanks Feb 17 12:02:45 ^ Feb 17 12:57:38 In downloadManager request addRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since", dateFormat.format(file.lastModified())); Feb 17 12:57:43 how to catch the response Feb 17 13:00:18 gn8 Feb 17 13:17:15 Hey guys, did anyone actually succeed in making MediaPlayer and MediaRecorder work simultaneously? Feb 17 13:17:48 I tried setting the audiosource: MIC - didn't work Feb 17 13:18:17 tried without setting the audiosource - didn't work Feb 17 13:18:28 the thing that doesn't work is MediaPlayer Feb 17 13:36:31 would using generic playing-card graphics be targeted by google's strike policy? Feb 17 13:43:34 what are generic playing card graphics? Feb 17 13:43:45 i bet 99% of the graphics for playing cards are somehow copyrighted Feb 17 13:47:23 generic's probably the wrong word, something from opengameart.org Feb 17 13:50:26 Hey guys, have anyone actually succeed in making MediaPlayer and MediaRecorder work simultaneously? Feb 17 13:50:34 maybe from the different processes? Feb 17 13:52:34 Tbone139, if you dont infridge some rights, it should be ok Feb 17 13:52:44 but you never know what the ban-algorithms do :p Feb 17 13:55:34 I have a bad feeling it runs an image-search across all uploaded games without discretion, maybe I'll tweak it a little Feb 17 13:55:35 thanks Feb 17 13:56:03 noboy knows ^^ Feb 17 14:04:50 i am using AsyncTask to get data from web and save it in DB.. there is null pointer exception in this code but i cannot apply try and catch or add any clouse in method. so what can i do now ? here is the code http://paste.ubuntu.com/10273709/ Feb 17 14:08:01 s9iper1: why can't you use try/catch block? Feb 17 14:08:37 also you could check for null before calling a method Feb 17 14:10:33 corentin, when i click on it it doesnt give me a option to add try catch block. Feb 17 14:11:47 s9iper1: why not checking for null before calling a method on the variable which triggers the null pointer exception Feb 17 14:12:14 s9iper1: also you might want to return from the method when a catch block is entered Feb 17 14:13:14 ok Feb 17 14:38:24 Hi everyone, I'm trying to keep this kind of layout http://fr.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=fokjvd&s=8 in landscape mode but I get this instead http://fr.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2j2g6f7&s=8 Feb 17 14:38:31 any advice on how I should do this ? Feb 17 14:42:02 Ok nvm I did it :) Feb 17 14:47:52 can somebody show me json array request post params with volley ? Feb 17 14:48:09 anyone has a working example ? i tried everything on the web Feb 17 14:52:31 JakeWharton: are you still using mortar and flow? Feb 17 14:55:57 Is there a way to get this autocorrection away? http://i.imgur.com/bo48fcF.png Feb 17 14:56:32 there's inputType textNoSuggestions but that hides all suggestions as it says Feb 17 15:01:03 i have a problem with android studio its just appear now. logcat is comming off and on and when i compile the code android studio is not sending apk to mobile and i have seen this error E/android.os.Debug﹕ failed to load memtrack module: -2 Feb 17 15:01:14 Couldn't load memtrack module (No such file or directory) Feb 17 15:12:09 does support toolbar have elevation by default on lolipop? Feb 17 15:16:17 mrpyo, why dont u test it? Feb 17 15:17:36 don't have lolipop device, and my computer is too crappy to run emulator... Feb 17 15:27:57 i think it is. not sure though Feb 17 15:35:50 So I was told to put my sqlite database in my assets folder. So I created a new folder called 'assets' in 'src/main' and made a 'databases' folder in the assets folder. Am I doing things right? Feb 17 15:39:39 hi there Feb 17 15:42:11 Hi ^^ Feb 17 15:44:22 I have a sort of conceptual question how I could implement an idea. Feb 17 15:45:25 I want to make some kind of app for a field trip. Now I though about displaying content defined in a level description file (some xml document) which my app downloads beforehand. Feb 17 15:46:26 my level activity would then parse the downloaded xml file, and in onCreate() it would dynamically create the view elements (textviews, imageviews, buttons) Feb 17 15:48:03 How could I implement some sort of "navigation"? For example, a button labeled "next stop" or something should display new content... my idea so far would be to start the same activity with an intent once more. I would put some "page identifier" in the intent extra and in onCreate() i would specifically only parse what matches this "page identifier" Feb 17 15:48:56 but this additional activity gets added on the activity stack, and somehow this whole idea doesn't feel quite right... has someone a different idea how to approach this? Feb 17 15:49:10 JakeWharton - Apologies for the potentially moronic question. When using a TabPageIndicator and applying a style to it, is there a way to stop the truncation of the title text within the indicator? It is currently cutting off long titles and elipsizing (if that is a word) them. Feb 17 15:56:57 cetchmoh: I tend to just update the info on the same activity instead of starting a new intent. :) Feb 17 15:57:26 Kake_Fisk: uh... right... but... Feb 17 15:57:55 Kake_Fisk: I would have to somehow destroy my views Feb 17 15:58:04 Kake_Fisk: then parse, then create new view elements Feb 17 15:58:43 Kake_Fisk: I wouldnt know how to destroy my currently active views... any pointer? Feb 17 15:59:00 cetchmoh, why dont u update them instead of destroy them? Feb 17 16:00:01 danijoo: example - "page 1" has some multiple choice question, requiring 4 buttons (answer options). if the user selects the correct answer, the next page would present a different question, requiring an input textbox and just 1 button Feb 17 16:00:29 this sound like a usecase for fragmentpager if you ask me Feb 17 16:00:45 ahhh... finally something new I can read about ;) Feb 17 16:01:16 cetchmoh, it lets you define "pages" and you can go from one page to another Feb 17 16:01:39 sounds just like my use case ;) Feb 17 16:03:56 might require lots of reading if you are new to android though. Feb 17 16:04:13 You need ViewPager, Adapters, Fragments... Feb 17 16:04:41 I just finished the udacity course on android development... but I can handle some reading ;) Feb 17 16:04:58 you need it anyways sooner or later :p Feb 17 16:05:06 good point :D Feb 17 16:12:21 How do I use this statement in my code "import android.content.pm.PackageParser;"? You have to be a system app to use that (I think) and so I'm guessing that PackageParser is left out of the SDK? Feb 17 16:16:21 reflection Feb 17 16:16:26
