**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Feb 15 02:59:59 2016 Feb 15 03:04:50 what convention are you meant to follow for package naming in the event you have a domain that begins with a digit? Feb 15 03:27:04 Robdgreat maybe spell it out 'fivethirteight' Feb 15 03:27:17 well, spell it correctly :D Feb 15 03:27:38 I thought about that, but however I spell it I'll need to register that domain as well Feb 15 03:28:00 don't need to register anything Feb 15 03:28:02 so what I'm likely to do is choose a different brand and have it operate under my main company Feb 15 03:28:27 yeah, I do, because what if someone registers the domain that I choose to name my packages for and wants to name their packages the same Feb 15 03:28:27 not like google verified your package correlates to some domain Feb 15 03:28:55 whoever gets the package first wins Feb 15 03:28:59 google doesn't give a shit Feb 15 03:29:06 I know google doesn't give a shit, but I do Feb 15 03:29:18 You don't even have to use a domain name, FWIW. Feb 15 03:29:34 domain name provides a built-in means of attempting to avoid namespace collisions Feb 15 03:29:46 I realize it's just a convention, but it's one I like Feb 15 03:30:04 I just wondered how others might have dealt with this Feb 15 03:33:01 sorta having a hard time getting started with ormlite Feb 15 03:33:27 I found a related SO question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28666297/package-names-in-android-studio-when-dev-name-starts-with-a-number Feb 15 03:33:28 RustyShackleford whats the matter with plain sqlite Feb 15 03:33:59 Another idea: http://androidforums.com/threads/namespace-when-domain-name-begins-with-a-number.267408/ Feb 15 03:34:07 TacticalJoke i don't really like the Play package name system, i think they should just give us a UUID or something Feb 15 03:34:29 like, if Play kicks you out and says rename your package, well there goes all your users, reviews, etc Feb 15 03:34:41 if your unique ID was just a UUID that wouldn't happen Feb 15 03:34:48 Yeah, that sounds reasonable. Feb 15 03:35:34 and then there is issue of changing ownership from com.foo to com.bar ... Feb 15 03:36:15 g00s: letting a library do the work for me sounds nice Feb 15 03:36:22 Cursors are kind of awkward Feb 15 03:36:23 crap, I have a recyclerView filled with charts - only having 10 items each and it stutters like hell Feb 15 03:36:32 Yeah, I've never liked the idea of using a domain name for a package name. Especially in Google Play. Feb 15 03:36:38 so is handling the database connection Feb 15 03:36:46 RustyShackleford they have boilerplate for sure, but its also very clear what is going on Feb 15 03:36:56 its been a while hah Feb 15 03:36:56 in this case, i take explicit boilerplate > magic Feb 15 03:37:12 well you have a point there Feb 15 03:37:31 I like how the ORM's will give you a model object you can pass around Feb 15 03:38:08 that sounds great - until you realize the same concept can be represented in different types of model objects ;D Feb 15 03:38:23 I got my rest calls all parsed and linked up using mostly annotations. Pretty cool Feb 15 03:38:28 in one part of an app, you may represent a customer like this, another like that Feb 15 03:39:07 granted this is more likely to happen in larger systems Feb 15 03:39:12 maybe I can reused the xml model classes Feb 15 03:40:03 you don't like ORM's huh? Feb 15 03:40:28 no, i guess its the old c++ developer in me - i want complete control Feb 15 03:40:45 Gawd, Java feels so bloated after using Kotlin for a bit. Feb 15 03:41:02 Feels like you're having a conversation with a very young child. Feb 15 03:41:10 In terms of having to speak slowly and so on. :D Feb 15 03:41:22 `this.foo = foo;` x 100 Feb 15 03:42:33 TacticalJoke i have to take another look at kotlin, but i'll be dissapointed if it has essentially the same type system java has Feb 15 03:42:50 maybe when kotlin in action goes on sale again it will be far enough along to read thourgh Feb 15 03:43:10 What do you mean by "type system"? Just curious. Feb 15 03:43:23 multiple inheritance, union types, etc Feb 15 03:43:36 Ah, okay. Kotlin is the same in those respects. Feb 15 03:43:44 At least for now (not sure whether they'll support union types). Feb 15 03:44:01 The guide on the Kotlin site is a good tutorial (though I guess you've read that). Feb 15 03:44:09 a while ago Feb 15 03:44:35 other thing is I want no friction between AS , instant run, jack & jill, etc Feb 15 03:44:45 Yeah, that's a concern of mine, too. Feb 15 03:44:59 instant run would be my first pick for things improving my dev experience Feb 15 03:45:29 and it looks like its going to be great, so excited Feb 15 03:47:09 y’all nerds think winrt will ever catch on? Feb 15 03:47:30 so far it hasen’t Feb 15 03:47:35 There are a couple of things that'd make me happy: 1. Google officially adopts Kotlin. 2. GitHub supports Mercurial. Feb 15 03:49:19 TacticalJoke: you like it better than git, really? Feb 15 03:49:36 at work we use clearcase which can go die in a fire Feb 15 03:50:18 Mercurial's CLI is a lot nicer than Git's. Feb 15 03:51:07 IMO, it's a tragedy that Git won the war. :D (It's also not surprising -- Linus made it and it was used immediately for the Linux kernel.) Feb 15 03:51:07 RustyShackleford omg, CC fucking sucks Feb 15 03:51:29 RustyShackleford tip: when you interview a company and they use CC, just walk away. its a symbol of their culture Feb 15 03:51:29 I think Git is six days older than Mercurial (or something like that). Feb 15 03:52:11 i can see CC being used at DoD contractors, Mitre, etc Feb 15 03:52:17 If everyone had to use Git for six months and then Mercurial for six months, I would bet money that the majority would prefer Mercurial. Feb 15 03:52:57 Though this thought experiment ignores the GitHub factor and so on. Feb 15 03:52:58 TacticalJoke we'll have to see now that the hg guy left the project .. whats next Feb 15 03:53:37 Yeah, I'm wondering who's gonna take over. I've idled in #mercurial for quite a few years, and I have a few names in mind. Feb 15 03:54:53 g00s: I asked mpm whether he'll continue to use Mercurial as a user, and he said probably not and that he's gonna take up watercolour painting. Feb 15 03:54:58 this chatroom should do a feats of strength around the holidays Feb 15 03:55:10 see who truly is the ultimate dork Feb 15 03:56:51 b4b: What would the challenges be? Feb 15 03:58:02 see who can code the fastest Feb 15 03:58:55 but the code cant have bugs Feb 15 04:00:33 if im running an app in android studio, and it crashes, where is the stack trace output to? Feb 15 04:00:45 dcope: LogCat (Alt+6). Feb 15 04:01:06 Clear all filters and search via the text field if you can't find the trace. Feb 15 04:01:19 TacticalJoke: is there some trick to ensure it doesn't get filtered? i've set level to verbose, no filter, etc. and still not seeing a stack trace Feb 15 04:01:56 After clearing filters, try typing "exception" or something. If you still can't find it, you might've had a SIGSEGV or similar. Feb 15 04:02:50 g00s: we're moving to github Feb 15 04:03:10 yeah I dunno about the whole corporate workplace. I'll wait it out a few years Feb 15 04:03:25 I'll say this, my manager let me work from home all week while I was crippled Feb 15 04:04:27 I like the company a whole lot more right now, hah Feb 15 04:19:19 lol watercolor painting Feb 15 04:45:42 Slightly off topic, but anyone here do hiring at their respective companies? How many apps in the store is the norm with most considered candidates? Feb 15 04:46:30 For a jnr level position by the way Feb 15 04:48:13 orbyt_ just guessing, the wiser ones wouldn't care about count per say - but how technically involved yours is Feb 15 04:48:54 architecting this app is fun Feb 15 04:49:09 maybe I can outsource the implementation to india Feb 15 04:49:40 RustyShackleford oh dear Feb 15 04:49:46 Yea thats why I ask, I'm going to be applying to a few positions at some point, and am wondering whether I should keep refining one of my apps or try and speed build another Feb 15 04:54:22 orbyt_: one app people use looks better than a bunch with no users Feb 15 04:54:57 junior level position, i'd say even one app looks good Feb 15 04:55:15 I'm also working on padding my resume hah Feb 15 04:55:43 but it is pretty common to see "must have several apps on Play" whatever several means Feb 15 04:56:02 mhm Feb 15 04:56:10 how many years until a junior developer becomes a senior? Feb 15 04:56:23 orbyt_ if your app does http and talks to rest backend, looks good material, that should be good enough Feb 15 04:56:25 technically I'm an "Associate" Feb 15 04:56:27 it's all bs Feb 15 04:56:46 yeah Feb 15 04:57:13 g00s: I mean the one I was referring to hits 3+ different apis, pulls a live stream, element transitions, bit of Rx Feb 15 04:58:07 I have a cool widget in the store as well... Feb 15 04:58:24 got like 20 downloads though cause i havent told anyone about it lol Feb 15 05:00:36 RustyShackleford: how does your "outsourcing to India" work? Feb 15 05:14:50 vedu: it was a dry joke Feb 15 05:15:00 but I imagine I pay them a few rupees Feb 15 05:15:09 RustyShackleford, nice imagination :P Feb 15 05:15:23 while I sit back in my recliner and watch Always Sunny in Philidelphia Feb 15 05:15:46 I'd get back a program that more or less works, but the codebase is a complete mess Feb 15 05:16:07 hey that sounds like work Feb 15 05:16:47 yeah it seems like they're finally catching on that outsourcing brings a terrible codebase Feb 15 05:17:23 haha. now it makes sense Feb 15 05:17:56 and I should be offfended by this Feb 15 05:18:01 typos everywhere. I was looking for this one class, couldn't find it. SerachMasterFragment.java Feb 15 05:18:14 lol Sera... Feb 15 05:18:22 yeah Feb 15 05:18:27 few rupees Feb 15 05:18:39 and you can something that looks like code and is called crap Feb 15 05:18:47 :) Feb 15 05:18:54 with "I love MainActivity" pattern Feb 15 05:19:15 vedu: you live in india? Feb 15 05:19:21 yep Feb 15 05:19:28 I am guessing so Feb 15 05:19:29 Hah Feb 15 05:19:33 hah. Well this is awkward Feb 15 05:19:34 vedu, hey there, me too Feb 15 05:19:41 RustyShackleford, no problems, all in jest Feb 15 05:19:56 hope you guys do it better than I described ;) Feb 15 05:20:01 I think it also has to do with communication problems Feb 15 05:20:05 It's not like the stereotype doesn't have a lot of truth to it Feb 15 05:20:20 you can see bad code everywhere Feb 15 05:20:34 so whats the reason for this? There are a bunch of indian guys onsite who produce signficantly better code Feb 15 05:20:34 I've worked with tons of companies and consultancies over the past 4 years I've worked with Android and it isn't easy to find excellent code quality Feb 15 05:20:43 not like I'm fixing app now, which has 5k+ lines in main activity ;) Feb 15 05:20:54 my fav shortcut is 'ctrl + alt + m' Feb 15 05:21:04 I'd guess the reason is lack of long term commitment Feb 15 05:21:20 I wouldnt be suprise Feb 15 05:21:27 I've been a developer for only like 4 months. I was just completely suprised how bad this codebase is Feb 15 05:21:30 if you dont need to fix it later Feb 15 05:21:31 who cares Feb 15 05:21:44 I write good code because I myself have to read it a few months later. If I wouldn't I probably wouldn't care Feb 15 05:22:01 vedu: courtesy for the next guy Feb 15 05:22:13 haha Feb 15 05:22:20 on the other hand, you could make your job more secure Feb 15 05:22:27 if you're the only one that can figure it out Feb 15 05:22:36 Open source is good in that way. You won't make it past code review Feb 15 05:22:36 There's a serious lack of proper computer science education Feb 15 05:22:43 problem is when even you can't figure it out though :D Feb 15 05:22:49 explicit > clever Feb 15 05:22:58 vedu, I'm guessing you have some background in open source dev Feb 15 05:23:05 I see terrible things Feb 15 05:23:10 RustyShackleford: I'd never hire someone like that Feb 15 05:23:15 open source might be bad too :D Feb 15 05:23:41 lut4rp: yep. proud contributor to KDE Feb 15 05:24:05 hanging out with a bunch of indian guys is certainly interesting Feb 15 05:24:05 vedu, glad to know :) Do you know shadeslayer? Feb 15 05:24:13 gordon_: are you talking about the 1 contributor repos on github :P Feb 15 05:24:14 I struggle so bad with the names Feb 15 05:24:48 foreigners are interesting hah. Lots of them have cool stories Feb 15 05:25:03 haha. I've seen expats stuggling Feb 15 05:25:13 Man, people *in* India struggle with names across the country. Perils of an insanely multi-cultural society. Feb 15 05:25:16 lut4rp: nope Feb 15 05:25:16 :D Feb 15 05:25:35 vedu, A bunch of my friends were (are?) KDE contribs. Feb 15 05:25:45 they'll do this pissing match where they try show off how many languages they can speak Feb 15 05:25:48 I used to be a contributor to Drupal years ago Feb 15 05:25:49 :) Feb 15 05:25:55 lut4rp: nice Feb 15 05:26:09 RustyShackleford: maybe you can lead if you count programming languages Feb 15 05:26:12 vedu, which city are you in? Feb 15 05:26:23 yeah they asked if I knew any other languages Feb 15 05:26:43 sure, I know tons. python, c++, ... Feb 15 05:27:26 Here we have 3 languages in high school. More, if you end up shifting between states Feb 15 05:27:44 RustyShackleford: For amsuement, I counted 11 Feb 15 05:27:47 vedu: no, large code bases Feb 15 05:27:52 and systemd :P Feb 15 05:28:01 Feb 15 05:28:24 * lut4rp brings out the popcorn Feb 15 05:28:43 haha Feb 15 05:29:08 sorry, was reading post about it today ;) Feb 15 05:30:27 systemd was like hell had broken loose Feb 15 05:32:19 it still is Feb 15 05:32:32 I think they will replace it with something else sooner or later Feb 15 05:45:56 somebody will put a layer over systemd and make a bigger mess Feb 15 05:46:03 exhibit a : linux audio stack Feb 15 05:47:33 hey, please suggest a good pattern for using shared preferences across application. Like a good utility class or something ? Feb 15 05:48:26 g00s: same developer ;) Feb 15 05:48:30 i use singleton for that Feb 15 05:48:57 which has its own shared prefences and just has getters and setters Feb 15 05:52:27 suhas_sm: sharedUserId or something Feb 15 05:52:38 in the AndroidManifest.xml Feb 15 05:53:04 Oops, sorry my bad, Not across different applications Feb 15 05:53:16 oh I misunderstood Feb 15 05:53:27 across all parts of your app Feb 15 05:54:08 Yep Feb 15 05:54:11 As Ashiren mentioned, singleton pattern sounds good Feb 15 05:56:40 is AsyncTask the recommended way to run a cpu intensive task off the ui thread? Feb 15 05:58:31 RustyShackleford hm, no Feb 15 05:58:49 use RxJava or something :D Feb 15 06:01:16 RustyShackleford: that's the standard way of doing things, yes Feb 15 06:01:23 there are some alternatives to it Feb 15 06:02:50 RustyShackleford if you use AsyncTask, make sure its ExecutorService is configured for your workload Feb 15 06:04:25 aw, my DrRacket icon is a <3 for valentines day :D Feb 15 06:13:56 g00s: I was a big fan of RxJava. Once upon a time Feb 15 06:14:23 vedu i only use it in my service / model these days - not UI stuff like click listeners Feb 15 06:14:53 actually problem is my app is heavily data centric and performance critical, and it was making too much garbage Feb 15 06:15:01 so i had to remove it from the high frequency paths Feb 15 06:15:07 so yeah, not all roses Feb 15 06:16:03 vedu what do you use now ? Feb 15 06:17:00 g00s: I shifted to back to plan old java callbacks and android handlers Feb 15 06:17:23 ah. yeah i still use plain callbacks for most UI things, like fragment / activity communication Feb 15 06:18:20 g00s: I was using rx mainly for network calls- sequential calls and error handling Feb 15 06:19:07 and for avoiding AsyncTask and interface callbacks Feb 15 06:32:38 I need to download a 45MB zip file Feb 15 06:32:53 do I have to buffer it? I think thats an acceptable amount of mmemory to use Feb 15 06:33:39 RustyShackleford look at download manager Feb 15 06:34:30 what if I'm already using retrofit? Feb 15 06:35:01 id retrofit meant for that scenario ? Feb 15 06:35:12 i'd use downloadmanager ;) Feb 15 06:35:35 it can handle it, but yeah Feb 15 06:35:46 I have no idea what i'm doing here. Thats why I asked hah Feb 15 06:35:50 I'm sure you can find a device that would run out of memory with that Feb 15 06:36:05 or rather heap size wouldn't be large enough Feb 15 06:37:36 Retrofit is fine Feb 15 06:37:52 If it's HTTP, Retrofit can handle it Feb 15 06:43:23 DownLoadManager does look simpler in this case Feb 15 06:45:04 will this cause the progress notification to show in the notification drawer? Feb 15 07:05:09 If I have a RelativeLayout inside another RelativeLayout, the ripple effect doesn't work on the second one because the background color is different. (example: http://i.imgur.com/xJWmDZZ.png). Is there anyway I can have the ripple effect on the second RelativeLayout as well? Feb 15 07:12:43 yes, you need to create drawable with ripple effect Feb 15 07:13:07 well, you need to create two is you're supporting api < 21 Feb 15 07:22:34 thanks gordon_, I'll look into that Feb 15 07:44:46 "With Instant Run, you only can work with one device at time. Feb 15 07:44:48 lol Feb 15 07:45:25 Heya peeps! Feb 15 07:47:05 hey gordon_, 1 more quick question if you dont mind. when I created the other drawabe and applied it to the second relative layout, there are two ripples now when clicked on. Is there a way to have only one or is it not possible? Feb 15 07:47:43 what do you mean by two ? Feb 15 07:49:22 I mean that when I click on the card, there are two separate ripples, one expanding slightly slower than the other. I applied the "android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"" one on my outer relativelayout and my custom ripple on my second Feb 15 07:50:21 interesting Feb 15 07:50:25 no idea why Feb 15 07:50:44 if you remove ripple from parent, do they occur too ? Feb 15 07:51:59 nope, now only the bottom relativelayout displays the ripple. oh well, no biggie. just a minor ui issue. Feb 15 07:54:01 dont know why Feb 15 07:54:19 maybe you invoke two on clicks ? Feb 15 07:58:37 hmm yes, maybe. this is what I have at the moment: http://i.imgur.com/y01qoKw.png Feb 15 08:24:41 * Zharf sighs at networkimageview Feb 15 08:29:16 what is that? Feb 15 08:35:04 Good morning to you all :) Feb 15 08:35:51 I know it's Monday, but Let's rock and roll :) Feb 15 08:49:03 Hi all. Quick question about Butterknife. Is it possible to bind a view from an Activity in a Fragment with Butterknife, or am I stuck using getActivity().findViewById()? Feb 15 08:53:49 it is possible Feb 15 08:54:06 but I dont know why you want to look for framgent Feb 15 08:54:32 do you have it declared in xml? Feb 15 09:06:00 Number5, Android and roll Feb 15 09:09:13 Yotta92, :P Feb 15 09:20:58 do you guys know if it's possible to fold if loops in android studio? i have some really big ones that I would prefer if they were collapsed Feb 15 09:21:28 i mean fold the ENTIRE if loop and the if elses Feb 15 09:30:20 god damn it Feb 15 09:30:23 I was just about to answer him Feb 15 09:38:18 Hello guys, after programming in iOS for a while I'm back on Android, so I had to catch up some missing knowled Feb 15 09:38:24 sorry Feb 15 09:40:59 Controless: extract the if/else chain to a separate method, fold the method Feb 15 09:41:36 liuwenhao, he disconnected Feb 15 09:41:41 gordon_: I have a button in a CollapsingToolbarLayout that I am controlling with my fragment (for refreshing Recyclerview data in the fragment) Feb 15 09:42:24 I get an error when using @OnClick even with @Nullable but findViewById + click listener works fine Feb 15 09:42:34 oh, I have join/disconnect hidden @Zharf Feb 15 09:42:51 Hello guys, after programming in iOS for a while I'm back on Android, so I had to catch up some knowledge and new developments. I like Material Design, but it amazes me that I can't do a simple back to previous fragment when clicking on the back arrow. I mean, you navigate up en down, so if I setHomeAsUpEnabled(true) it should by default pop backstack. Now I have an arrow back button that doesn't do anything in AppCompatActivity. Feb 15 09:42:51 Does anyone has a simple guide to handle this? Feb 15 09:42:54 liuwenhao, tab complete would've revealed it :) Feb 15 09:44:45 @Number5 .addToBackStack(null) or .addToBackStack("whatever tag you want") when you are setting up the transaction Feb 15 09:45:16 i.e. transaction.add(R.id.fragment_container, newFragment).addToBackStack("").commit(); Feb 15 09:45:46 thats how I do it at least Feb 15 09:47:34 liuwenhao, it's not about addTobackstack, it's about why the arrow button in toolbar doesn't do anything, it doesn't call onOptionsItemSelected(). Feb 15 09:48:28 does fastlane have any benefits over gradle ? Feb 15 10:31:07 I'm having trouble parsing inner json classes using gson. How to deserialize "property"? Here is the following json Feb 15 10:31:08 { "success": "true", "inventory": { "id": "234-232", "property": [ { "type": "book", "title": "Red Dragon" }, { "type": "bottle", "color": "blue" } ] } } Feb 15 10:32:18 Since "property" is inner class, using .registerTypeAdapter(PropertyItem.class, new PropertyItemDeserializer()) isn't working. Feb 15 10:32:33 Will appreciate any help. Feb 15 10:32:55 just make a new class and have the root class contain the property class as a member? Feb 15 10:33:08 no need for type adapters Feb 15 10:33:27 This was just an example. I'm using a very complicated API which needs deserializing of inner classes. Feb 15 10:33:58 I was going through the documentation. Using static classes for nested object didn't make much sense. Feb 15 10:34:26 if the class is an inner class, making it static will drastically simplify things Feb 15 10:34:44 since non-static inner classes require a reference to the parent instance Feb 15 10:35:56 But the problem in the above problem is, I haven't defined "PropertyItem" inside "Property" class. Feb 15 10:36:05 Will check more into this. Feb 15 10:36:58 I need a proper testcase to understand the problem you're experiencing Feb 15 10:38:14 Hmm, to clarify more into this, if I had this json { "success": "true", "property": [ { "type": "book", "title": "Red Dragon" }, { "type": "bottle", "color": "blue" } ] } Feb 15 10:38:19 it works fine Feb 15 10:38:46 However, If I nest "property" inside "inventory", the custom deserializer isn't even called. Feb 15 10:38:56 Thanks anyway. I'll research a bit more. Feb 15 10:44:52 arun15, I dont really get what you need but this website should hlp you with deserialization: http://www.jsonschema2pojo.org/ Feb 15 10:50:02 Ok guys, how can I make AppBar (in AppCompatActivity) transparent such that the background of the fragment can be seen? Feb 15 10:50:50 Nnabueze, thanks. I was however looking into polymorphism ability in gson library. Feb 15 10:51:46 The question I posted here is just for one fragment, for other fragments the appbar stays as normal. Feb 15 10:51:49 Number5, A toolbar is just a view. you can make it transparent the same way you would do it with any other view Feb 15 10:51:56 ie setting the background to transparent Feb 15 10:52:31 danijoo_, Ok, sorry for the stupid question. My apologise. Feb 15 10:53:34 Number5, lol its not a stupid question Feb 15 10:54:08 danijoo_, I'm sorry, but what happens is that a view I move under the appbar disappears (I move the view using animation). That was my problem. Feb 15 10:54:15 Nnabueze, thnx man :) Feb 15 10:55:51 can you make a mock of what you are trying to do? Feb 15 10:56:08 sounds like something you should use coordinatorlayout and appbarlayout for Feb 15 10:56:17 I set appbar transparent, what happens is the view (like a TextView)I move under the appbar also disappears as if it's covered by the appbar., while the appbar is transparent. Feb 15 10:57:06 danijoo_, I think that's the best thing to do now, to show you an example of what I try to achieve. Well as soon as I'm finished I'll show you what I try to do. thnx guys Feb 15 11:08:08 For some reason my mediaplayer in my foreground service only runs well when the notification drawer is open? Feb 15 11:11:15 anyone using retrofit? Idk why but i'm getting network on main thread exception, shouldnt that be automatically handled by it? Feb 15 11:12:03 If you use a Callback or rxjava, sure Feb 15 11:12:19 no i'm not using any callbacks Feb 15 11:12:43 or rxjava Feb 15 11:12:49 Then it happens on whatever thread you call the method on Feb 15 11:13:11 then it is on main thread -.- Feb 15 11:13:17 what am i supposed to do? Feb 15 11:13:42 Call it on another thread, or use a Callback Feb 15 11:16:20 SimonVT: u know wheres the callback docs? Feb 15 11:17:01 I don't, I manage the threading myself Feb 15 11:17:17 asynctask? Feb 15 11:17:31 Service and a Thread Feb 15 11:17:53 is that better than the callback? Feb 15 11:18:12 No, just different Feb 15 11:32:57 Any of you guys has any experience with disabling AEC-Acoustic Echo Cancellation (on rooted devices)? So idea is to play some sin/cos waves from application on a callers device thru speakers, and that those noises are heard by the call receiver. But every noise that comes out of speaker seems to be ignored by microphone while call is active (even though i managed to disable second mic on device). Help or suggestions? Feb 15 11:37:22 @Twirl, which did you do?: call.enqueue() or call.execute()? Feb 15 11:37:49 Nnabueze: now i'm using the enqueue Feb 15 11:38:08 but it's giving me malformed JSON Feb 15 11:38:16 and idk why Feb 15 11:38:36 ok cuz .execute() on main thread causes NetworkOnMainThread exception too Feb 15 11:38:39 Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed JSON at line 1 column 1 path $ Feb 15 11:39:03 u might have missed a { or ] Feb 15 11:39:21 no, the json is created with php json_encode Feb 15 11:39:27 it's fine Feb 15 11:39:33 i'm not manually writing it Feb 15 11:40:12 copy that json and paste here to see it if gives the appropriate pojo: http://www.jsonschema2pojo.org/ Feb 15 11:41:09 hello everybody, how to change action bar icon size in android? thanks in advance Feb 15 11:41:27 Nnabueze: it's a list of objects Feb 15 11:42:09 Nnabueze: [{"prop1":val, "prop2":val}, {"prop1":val, "prop2":val}] Feb 15 11:43:17 maybe php's json_encode isnt the right format for gson? Feb 15 11:43:41 I dont know Feb 15 11:43:47 im using it with another json library and it works fine somewhere else Feb 15 11:43:53 json is json Feb 15 11:43:59 Find out what actually reaches the device and validate it Feb 15 11:44:21 that's what i'm trying to do Feb 15 11:44:28 but paste a link to the code, someone here could look at it and help you out Feb 15 11:44:43 Nnabueze: what code? Feb 15 11:45:36 ur code, as in how you are parsing the json Feb 15 11:46:05 i'm using retrofit, pretty much copied the example Feb 15 11:46:07 private static Retrofit.Builder builder = new Retrofit.Builder().baseUrl(API_BASE_URL).addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create()); Feb 15 11:48:25 wats API_BASE_URL? Feb 15 11:48:26 anyone know a way to automatically add @NonNull to all method arguments when generating code? Feb 15 11:48:30 wats the value? Feb 15 11:49:34 Nnabueze: well, i'm taking a look at the debugger now and it looks like baseUrl = "http://site.com/" and relative url is "/query", that would end up with double "//" probably Feb 15 11:50:38 well, removed the / from query and its the same Feb 15 11:51:22 iirc there was a thing in retrofit docs that said not to have the base url end in / Feb 15 11:52:42 @Zharf, yes dats true Feb 15 11:52:56 still not working Feb 15 11:53:14 OkHttp has a logging interceptor you can use to see the response Feb 15 12:03:13 make sure you are not trying to decode a jsonarray to a jsonobject. that might also raise an invalid jason because it exects one object and not an array Feb 15 12:04:11 I think that would say something about expected BEGIN_ARRAY got BEGIN_OBJECT Feb 15 12:05:18 i dont remember :/ Feb 15 12:06:03 well, looks like the url is fine in the debugger, it's requesting http://site.com/query but i don't know how to see the response Feb 15 12:06:41 how to change action bar icon size? thanks in advance Feb 15 12:08:13 SimonVT: i'm going to try with the logging interceptor Feb 15 12:13:25 bilal, check this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9131954/is-there-a-way-to-reduce-the-spacing-between-the-action-item-icons-on-action-bar/10085862#10085862 Feb 15 12:17:30 Hi how can I tell a circle ci to do assembleDebug if its on develop branch and assembleRelease if its on master ? Feb 15 12:34:55 Is there any standard mechanism for handling languages in strings.xml when the language is not taken from system settings but from a preference (stored in SharedPreferences) inside the app? Feb 15 12:48:56 Hello guys, this is my test project: https://github.com/andaluz/MaterialDesign.git At the moment I have a problem to make the back arrow button in the toolbar call the previous fragment. I'm kind of stuck here. Can anyone please help me? The project on github: https://github.com/andaluz/MaterialDesign Feb 15 12:49:40 danijoo_: Have you seen Androids Data Binding lib yet? Feb 15 12:49:51 It also contains a lib for observable attributes on object. Feb 15 12:49:53 *s Feb 15 12:49:59 And maps. Feb 15 12:50:01 And so on. Feb 15 12:50:18 You can just bind an attribute to a view, and when it's changed, the view updates. Feb 15 12:50:41 yes i know that Feb 15 12:51:08 but I dont think its a good idea to mix view/layout definitions with code like that :/ Feb 15 12:55:24 danijoo_, I started an experimental project to solve the transparent toolbar issue in the morning. But first I want to solve the back button on the toolbar, which doesn't call previous fragment. Can you please take a look? Feb 15 12:55:57 When clicking on the back button on the toolbar, it calls the navigation drawer. Feb 15 12:58:40 not without more information Feb 15 12:59:14 also im a bit busy right now. finals.. Feb 15 13:01:15 danijoo_, Ok I'm sorry. I have a main fragment, with 2 buttons, when clicking on it, it opens another fragment, which modifies the toolbar's hamburger menu button to left arrow back button. When clicking on that arrow, it doesn't do anything. I understand if you don't have time. But if you do I really appreciate. Anyway, thank you for responding me. Feb 15 13:02:12 If someone else would like to help, than please :) Feb 15 13:02:39 if you change it to an arrow manually, you have to change it back manually too.. Feb 15 13:06:04 danijoo_, ok, I really googled for this, but it doesn't help. I mean I did override onOptionsItemSelected hoping to catch the event, but it doesn't do anything. Feb 15 13:06:47 I know it's basic stuff I need to know, but apparently I missed some of the knowledge. Feb 15 13:07:16 if the toolbar is part of the activity the onOptionsItemSelected will be called on the activity, not the fragment Feb 15 13:08:57 SimonVT: well, the logging interceptor didn't work with retrofit Feb 15 13:09:02 the id of the click will be android.R.id.home btw Feb 15 13:09:06 danijoo_, yes exactly, it is part of the activity, as I set the toolbar to actionbar with: setSupportActionBar(toolbar); I'll put some more logging Feb 15 13:09:37 Number5, onOpotionsitemSelected will be called with android.R.id.home as menuitem Feb 15 13:09:38 danijoo_: I mean the ObservableString, ObservableInt, etc Feb 15 13:09:43 they fire an event when updated. Feb 15 13:09:52 you can bind them manually to views, too. Feb 15 13:10:20 SimonVT: so, idk what to do to see the response, i keep getting the same error, tried removing the .addConverterFactory from the retrofit builder instance but it says it needs a factory to convert the response body, so idk how to see the response Feb 15 13:10:30 danijoo_, yes I already did that. Glad you said that, so my thought was correct. I'll try to confirm it again. But I'm afraid that NavigationDrawer is like intercepting the event. Feb 15 13:11:06 Number5, that could be the case (navdrawer) Feb 15 13:11:35 danijoo_, so you're not sure either? Feb 15 13:12:08 Number5, im not sure how navdrawer will intercept this without testing it by myself Feb 15 13:12:30 danijoo_, thnx I'll check for it. Thank you for your patient. Feb 15 13:12:30 justjanne, oh i didnt saw that yet. I tested databinding only once when It came out (2014?) Feb 15 13:12:51
