**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Sep 16 02:59:59 2016 Sep 16 03:02:07 Yeah I'm looking at the paid ones and wondering that. For now I'm just hitting up the free version. Sep 16 03:28:38 hello: x.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.whatever); Sep 16 03:28:47 is there some reverse function like "getBackgroundResource" ? Sep 16 03:28:55 i need to dynamically get the drawable Sep 16 03:29:50 ir7466: ContextCompat.getDrawable(getActivity(), R.drawable.name); Sep 16 03:30:13 inder_gt: not what hes asking Sep 16 03:30:21 no, it's already been set Sep 16 03:30:26 and what are you setting the bg on ir7466 Sep 16 03:30:28 and I want to retrieve what it was set to Sep 16 03:30:29 ya just realized, mb lol Sep 16 03:30:51 what am I setting it on? inside an adapter Sep 16 03:30:59 What kind of view Sep 16 03:31:06 board view Sep 16 03:31:10 (ext library) Sep 16 03:31:25 but basically a list view Sep 16 03:32:00 so *somewhere* the image is being set. and in my activity, i want to get the drawable of that image given I know the resource id of the imageview Sep 16 03:32:16 int drawable = clickedView.findViewById(R.id.item_image_view).WHAT_HERE() Sep 16 03:32:20 so basically I can get that far Sep 16 03:33:27 Well is it an ImageView or a ListView? ImageViews have a getDrawable() method Sep 16 03:34:28 the image is an imageview Sep 16 03:34:44 but it's part of what is essentially a list view item Sep 16 03:34:55 so there's an imageview and a textview = and that forms the item Sep 16 03:35:01 ((TextView) clickedView.findViewById(R.id.text)).getText(); Sep 16 03:35:05 that gets me the text Sep 16 03:35:12 now i want to get the drawable for the image Sep 16 03:35:15 Hi, is there a way to open a pdf and convert it to an image ? Sep 16 03:44:04 lol http://phandroid.com/2016/09/15/firebase-android-app-crash/ Sep 16 03:45:06 go google ... Sep 16 03:46:11 "It seems that when Google updated its Play Services to version 9.6.80, any application using Firebase as a crash reporting tool will indeed crash." Sep 16 03:46:13 omfg Sep 16 03:58:33 Greetings, Question: For SpannableStringBuilder how do you stop a SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE? AKA i want to "log.append(text, RED, SPAN_EX_IN).append(text).append(text).append(newline, RED, **CHANGE TO SPAN_EX_EX**)?" Sep 16 04:03:17 is there an easy way to have the activity NOT reload when the orientation changes? Sep 16 04:04:27 You can lock the orientation Sep 16 04:05:38 don't want to lock it Sep 16 04:05:55 my list view for example, say the user re-arranges some stuff Sep 16 04:06:05 if they rotate the orientation, all the changes are lost Sep 16 04:06:17 save the changes then Sep 16 04:06:34 how Sep 16 04:06:49 can't i just not have the activity reload on orientation change? Sep 16 04:06:52 seems much easier Sep 16 04:06:59 whats the best way to create an observable out of a callback that fires, use a Subject? Sep 16 04:07:29 added android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize" in the manifest - that fixed it Sep 16 04:20:55 ir7466: That works indeed, and if your application can handle the configuration changes, it's much faster (and uses less cpu/battery) than the defaukt. Sep 16 04:21:20 ir7466: That said, you should still write your code to be able to handle activity restarts, since configuration changes are not the only thing that can trigger them. Sep 16 04:23:01 loke: i've never heard that before about it being much faster, that's interesting Sep 16 04:23:18 parco: It's faster simply because it runs less code. Sep 16 04:23:48 How much faster is debatable. :-) Sep 16 04:24:33 I'm pretty sure it was visibily smoother on old devices. Sep 16 04:27:17 parco: What do you mean by "observable out of a callback"? Sep 16 04:27:55 all of the rxjava examples show how to create observables from predefined lists / data Sep 16 04:28:17 i'd like to create a stream out of a callback, from say, the LocationManager Sep 16 04:28:36 parco: I don't know. I never bothered with rxjava Sep 16 04:29:18 I've used that stuff in web development, but I've never felt the need in Java. Sep 16 04:33:45 loke: its awesome, definitely check it out Sep 16 04:36:59 parco: I don't know. My code is has plenty of lambdas all over the place (I do Android development in Kotlin). I see the rxjava stuff as a restriction and a complication. Sep 16 04:37:25 kotlin must be the way to go, i can't wait to try it out Sep 16 04:39:02 parco: It's quite nice. Not as nice as Lisp of course, but acceptable. :-) Sep 16 04:50:39 ugh, DecoratedCustomViewStyle looks like shit Sep 16 04:56:36 dragorn 53.4 here, would be great if it got into the 40's Sep 16 04:56:43 * g00s pumps fist Sep 16 04:57:12 dog is 5 years younger Sep 16 06:05:34 Hi Sep 16 06:05:37 I have this: Sep 16 06:05:39 RequestBody formBody = new FormBody.Builder() .add("search", "Jurassic Park").build(); Sep 16 06:06:01 what do I do if I want to call "add()" an unknown number of times? basically i have a list of parameters and i want to inject them dynamicall Sep 16 06:08:59 so you just add another add after add() Sep 16 06:09:07 it returns the FormBody.Builder Sep 16 06:09:12 you can chain them Sep 16 06:21:35 hey , I am trying to delete a database inside an alert Dialog , but it says either declare dbadapter as final and if i declare it final , it says , trying to re-open and already closed database Sep 16 06:21:37 http://pastebin.com/5MryEwRP Sep 16 06:27:52 db is closed before dialog is shown Sep 16 06:28:18 if you click yes you have db.deleteAll() on already closed db Sep 16 06:29:03 you could initialize the dbadapter inside the onClick Sep 16 06:44:11 Ashiren: but db is closed at the end , and when i try to delete the database , it still is open Sep 16 06:46:23 not exactly Sep 16 06:46:52 doing .show() you just tell the system to open dialog in the future Sep 16 06:47:07 the lines below show() will execute before dialog is actually shown Sep 16 06:47:38 you have a log there, you can see the log is shown before you click anything in dialog Sep 16 06:47:48 and so is db.close() executed Sep 16 06:48:28 Trying to get the WiFi signal strength, using this code: http://pastebin.com/fjG0vJ5B However, OnRecieve is never being called even though I should be receiving data. Any idea why? Sep 16 06:49:36 Ashiren: you mean the .show of negative or positive response , causes it to execute in future? Sep 16 06:50:30 Zajt: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8717741/application-never-receives-rssi-changed-action Sep 16 06:51:09 killer: the show() of the dialog Sep 16 07:03:22 for a floating action button i have: android:src="@android:drawable/ic_" Sep 16 07:03:35 where can I see a full list of the possible icons I can use? Sep 16 07:54:40 android studio doesn't respond Sep 16 07:55:27 waited for 7 minutes for gradle to complete build, cancelled it, trying to quit studio Sep 16 07:56:00 android is low quality software :) Sep 16 07:56:49 squ: doing Android programming has opened my eyes to just how much Google sucks considering just how many trillions of $ they have Sep 16 07:57:35 you should try to develop app in XCode for ios for better image Sep 16 07:59:38 Note: the configuration keeps the entry point 'com.google.firebase.iid.FirebaseInstanceId { com.google.firebase.iid.FirebaseInstanceId getInstance(com.google.firebase.FirebaseApp); }', but not the descriptor class 'com.google.firebase.FirebaseApp' Sep 16 07:59:40 this Sep 16 07:59:42 why Sep 16 08:00:12 software responsible by google, firebase Sep 16 08:00:22 doesn't compile with proguard Sep 16 08:00:52 I expected more Sep 16 08:01:39 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6BXBI4KkwY Sep 16 08:01:47 is there a site that shows some simple/elegant form designs for android? Sep 16 08:04:51 squ: ugh, their enthusiasm is depressing me. I bet they gave them cocaine before the filming started because no right-minded developer can be that excited about bullshit without drugs. Sep 16 08:05:12 yeah :) Sep 16 08:05:37 americans Sep 16 08:05:42 question : on gradle properties I want to be able to override them in a flavour but apply them in the archives base name and dependancies .... attempting to override in flavour just ends up with last defined flavour, if you use custom properties the deps. are resolved before the variants container is populated, anyone got any ideas ? Sep 16 08:11:12 VerbalKint o/ Sep 16 08:32:02 raoul11: ola Sep 16 08:33:10 raoul11: how's your app going? Sep 16 08:37:32 VerbalKint: I'm still trying to get a handle on what Firebase actually is. Sep 16 08:37:58 loke: unicorns, happiness and the magic of friendship Sep 16 08:38:26 VerbalKint: Clearly. :-) Sep 16 08:38:27 loke: and snorting cocaine off of the backs of fashions models on the deck of a cruiser in Ibiza Sep 16 08:38:51 *yacht Sep 16 08:39:30 loke: Firebase is progressive, innovative, forward-thinking, revolutionary and groundbreaking, bro Sep 16 08:39:49 loke: so buy it, don't ask what it is :D Sep 16 08:43:26 question : on gradle properties I want to be able to override them in a flavour but apply them in the archives base name and dependancies .... attempting to override in flavour just ends up with last defined flavour, if you use custom properties the deps. are resolved before the variants container is populated, anyone got any ideas ? Sep 16 08:43:39 Firebase made me go, oh my god its magic ya know Sep 16 08:44:18 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzlK0OGpIRs ! Sep 16 08:44:35 VerbalKint: firebase theme song right there Sep 16 08:50:24 simple question - what could go wrong with this approach of creating and passing objects to fragment? http://pastebin.com/WvgHbcm0 Sep 16 08:50:31 provided app is always portrait Sep 16 08:51:02 and the complex object cant be serialized/parcelled, it contains references to 'living' objects Sep 16 08:56:27 VerbalKint: hi Sep 16 08:56:32 arancio: hey Sep 16 08:57:33 arancio: my AdMob impressions are slowly rising :D Sep 16 08:58:06 arancio: how's your app? Sep 16 09:01:42 VerbalKint: even exponential curves have a beginning with a very low slope. Then: BOOM! Trivia world domination! Sep 16 09:02:01 arancio: I'm betting on that Sep 16 09:02:30 But really, I need to go back to webdev in the meantime Sep 16 09:05:18 VerbalKint: maybe web development will give you new ideas for mobile app too Sep 16 09:05:56 arancio: meh, maybe Sep 16 09:06:49 hi Sep 16 09:07:25 best intro of all time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kn8Yd3_oIVQ Sep 16 09:07:26 Kalleos: hi. Welcome to #android-dev Sep 16 09:08:35 I have a Fragment with Text and LiesViews. After I press a button in that fragment, a DialogFragment appears. The problem is now, that the listviews of the previous Fragment disappear, whereas the TextViews remain. Sep 16 09:08:40 ListViews* Sep 16 09:08:50 parco: now THAT'S the kind of programmer speech impediment that gives me chills! Sep 16 09:09:18 The DialogFragment hast also ListViews.. but they are fully their own Sep 16 09:09:47 I checked whether the DialogFragment overwrites any of the ListView variables of the previous fragment, but it doesn't Sep 16 09:09:48 VerbalKint: i like this guy already, his name's Nigel! Sep 16 09:10:16 Has someone experiences something like that? I was not able to find something in StackOverflow.. Sep 16 09:10:48 Kalleos no code no help ? Sep 16 09:11:03 parco: but seriously now, nothing's wrong with him. I would rather have him tell me about Firebase features than those obviously-CG dumbasses. Sep 16 09:11:18 ok.. one moment Sep 16 09:11:24 TextViews with xml static id's will restore values Sep 16 09:12:58 Well.. I think it will take a little time.. I reduce the code Sep 16 09:20:47 Hi all, somebody else had an issue with the fab having a cast exception with the layoutparams by upgrading support lib to 24.2.0 | 24.2.1? Sep 16 09:21:30 like this issue: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=220794 Sep 16 09:31:00 How do you change the color of the top screen area where charge level indicator, time and signal level indicator are? Sep 16 09:31:12 How is that area called? Sep 16 09:32:46 android:statusBarColor Sep 16 09:33:05 Zharf: thanks Sep 16 09:33:48 it's the colorPrimaryDark setting in the theme Sep 16 09:36:17 Hi Sep 16 09:36:25 I have this in my main activity: bundle.putBoolean(Constants.SPLASH_TO_SETTINGS_INTENT, false); Sep 16 09:36:40 I have this in the settings activity: final boolean fromSplash = getIntent().getExtras().getParcelable(Constants.SPLASH_TO_SETTINGS_INTENT); Sep 16 09:36:54 But it's not finding it in the parcel, it's coming back as null Sep 16 09:36:57 i do not understand Sep 16 09:40:21 oh i see... getBoolean was needed not parcelable Sep 16 09:58:22 hi there, I have a question about TypedArray in an adapter but don't know how to manage the call to ".recycle" efficiently. Is it OK to create the TypedArray for each view and then call ".recycle"? Sep 16 09:58:41 what are you trying to do Sep 16 09:59:26 I load some random colors from an XML resource file .... color1 , color2, color3, ... Sep 16 10:00:24 Right now, I have the TypedArray as an attribute of the adapter, however this means it lives as long as the adapter does and the call to ".recycle" never occurs Sep 16 10:02:42 alternatively, I can create the TypedArray in "onBindViewHolder" and call ".recycle()". However this means a new TypedArray for each view. I don't think this is the right approach. Sep 16 10:03:49 or ... I can actually pass all colors to the adapter ... either in the constructor or in a set method ... it just came to my mind ... Sep 16 10:08:12 you should convert it to a java array for the adapter to use Sep 16 10:08:18 or list Sep 16 10:08:19 but whatever Sep 16 10:10:43 What are the pros and cons of using AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter vs GcmTaskService to perform all network based calls synchronously. Sep 16 10:19:19 yup! that's right Zharf! Sep 16 10:19:22 Thanks Sep 16 10:32:40 <_genuser_> is there way to force intellisense popup for paramters? Sep 16 10:33:02 <_genuser_> ctrl-space always just popups up autocomplete. when inside the parens of a method call, I'd like to pull up param list. Sep 16 10:33:27 always? Sep 16 10:34:09 VerbalKint: song about magic is nice, never heard it Sep 16 10:35:05 _genuser_, settings > editor > general > code completion has some settings you might be interested in Sep 16 10:35:15 <_genuser_> Zharf: yes, for me when I hit ctrl-space, it pops up autocomplete. Sep 16 10:35:21 <_genuser_> Zharf: ah, let me look. Sep 16 10:35:52 <_genuser_> I know I can go to the beginning of the method and hit ctrl-space, and then scroll down and it will show the params, but that requires scrolling after already starting the param list. Sep 16 10:37:08 I'm not sure what you mean to be honest Sep 16 10:39:26 <_genuser_> Zharf: https://code.visualstudio.com/images/January_jsdoc.png Sep 16 10:40:16 <_genuser_> that's Visual Studio (not AS), but basically once you're inside the method parens, it will show how many params (if overloads, you can up/down arrow thru them), and as you type commas, it will highlight currently needed param. Sep 16 10:40:22 <_genuser_> that way you can quickly see what you need to pass there. Sep 16 10:41:07 <_genuser_> https://i-msdn.sec.s-msft.com/dynimg/IC829254.jpeg Sep 16 10:41:24 <_genuser_> so you keep typing or up/down arrow to see if there's a method signature that you like better. Sep 16 10:42:21 is it possible to choose named parameter in @Provides method in dagger ? Sep 16 10:43:56 _genuser_, I'm not sure if you can get them up automatically unless you're just writing the call (that is, not when you just click inside the parentheses... but you can always press ctrl+p when inside those parentheses Sep 16 10:45:55 <_genuser_> Zharf: yep, ctrl+p that's exactly what I was looking for! thanks. Sep 16 10:46:34 <_genuser_> in VS, you ctrl+space for regular autocompelte, and ctrl+shift+space for this thing that needs ctrl-p in AS. Sep 16 10:46:42 <_genuser_> this is such a time saver! Sep 16 10:47:19 VerbalKint: so can I stop buying smartphones just to install your app? I got 23 already. Can we use another strategy to make your download count go up? Sep 16 10:47:51 After watching the first 30 seconds of that firebase video I decided I won't use it. It must be a technology for morons Sep 16 10:49:07 Can I learn to write Android apps without becoming like these guys in the google evangelization videos? Sep 16 10:50:23 sure, don't watch those videos Sep 16 10:51:19 <_genuser_> you can learn to write, sure. as you get more and more involved in a scene, you'll willingly or unknowingly turn into one of those guys. Sep 16 10:52:57 those guys are as useless as their videos, it's much more efficient to just read things to learn Sep 16 10:53:23 I agree. I hate video tutorials too Sep 16 10:53:26 <_genuser_> oh are you talking about watchign videos to learn? Sep 16 10:53:55 <_genuser_> that's just a bunch of people always sitting around talking pretending it's a talk show Sep 16 10:55:16 I was talking about those video specifically which are a further degeneration of video tutorials. Video silliness without even tutoring. I guess they are made to make young developer think that that stuff is particularly cool and glamour Sep 16 10:56:17 <_genuser_> if it's a show that has regular content on daily/weekly basis, it will be like any other show. lot of waste of time. little information. Sep 16 10:56:51 Hello ! I am unable to find the externalStorageDirectory with DDMS on my GS5. No problem with any other phone. Its usually on mnt/shell/emulated/0/, but where it is supposed to be on a GS5 ? Sep 16 10:57:17 /storage/emulated/0/? Sep 16 10:57:21 maybe Sep 16 10:58:29 In my phone it's where Zharf says Sep 16 10:58:34 Yeah i tried, but when i want to expand emulated/, nothing appears Sep 16 10:59:06 Environmen.getExternalStorageDirectory() Sep 16 10:59:09 it's only readable by root Sep 16 10:59:18 <_genuser_> I just use es file manager and go thru the whole visible filesystem. Sep 16 10:59:24 you need to jump to the 0 directory directly Sep 16 10:59:39 ES :( Sep 16 10:59:54 hm? Sep 16 10:59:58 i am using DDMS, i cant do this kind of jumps Sep 16 11:00:01 <_genuser_> oh, you dislike es file mgr? Sep 16 11:00:16 they ruined it, it's a spam platform now Sep 16 11:00:23 <_genuser_> it's gotten too annoying lately with ads, and lock screen ads Sep 16 11:00:36 I uninstalled it Sep 16 11:00:40 <_genuser_> ok, then we're talking about the same thing. yeah, I have wanted to find anotehr replcement lately. Sep 16 11:00:58 <_genuser_> I mainly use it to hit my LAN at home. Sep 16 11:01:06 <_genuser_> get files over wifi from fileserver. Sep 16 11:02:19 I'm trying solid explorer now, but I might just write my own Sep 16 11:02:23 what about total commander Sep 16 11:02:36 it's horrible Sep 16 11:02:44 utter user interface design failure Sep 16 11:02:55 ghost commander :? Sep 16 11:03:09 <_genuser_> anything with the word commander has always been a total disgrace, lol. Sep 16 11:03:17 norton commander? Sep 16 11:03:19 norton commander was great Sep 16 11:03:21 <_genuser_> I'll check out solid explorer Sep 16 11:03:28 but that's DOS :p Sep 16 11:03:49 so dosbox + norton Sep 16 11:04:19 <_genuser_> Zharf: t least it has appbar (or a look-alike) (talking about solid explorer). Sep 16 11:04:23 <_genuser_> but the theme is horrible. Sep 16 11:04:32 <_genuser_> damn fake 3d icons. Sep 16 11:06:37 <_genuser_> oh there's a classic and there's a regular Solid Explorer File Manager. Sep 16 11:07:50 I never tried the classic one Sep 16 11:08:57 <_genuser_> alright, I have installed it via web interfcace. Let's see how it looks on teh device one it gets installed. Sep 16 11:09:14 <_genuser_> meanwile back to my googling for cropping bitmaps. Sep 16 11:09:52 Would it be a good idea for every app to have multiple icons, e.g. round, square versions? Sep 16 11:11:04 why Sep 16 11:11:05 :) Sep 16 11:11:06 how do you identify navigation items in onNavigationItemSelected()? By title? Sep 16 11:11:35 <_genuser_> arancio: use the android studio new project template to install one wiht nav drawer. it will have all the coded to get it going Sep 16 11:12:03 _genuser_: thanks Sep 16 11:12:33 _genuser_: I was using cheesesquare as reference but it does nothing when navigation items are clicked Sep 16 11:13:37 <_genuser_> arancio: https://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/nav-drawer.html Sep 16 11:14:14 I say they get the id with item.getItemId(). That's the resource id Sep 16 11:14:18 saw Sep 16 11:14:29 <_genuser_> Handle navigation click events section has more code Sep 16 11:14:48 <_genuser_> shows you onItemClick event which gies you the position and id of the item clicked. Sep 16 11:14:57 takes patience to point arancio in the right in tutorial Sep 16 11:15:03 in the right spot Sep 16 11:15:38 <_genuser_> squ: heh, don't worry I'm now taking payments in teh form of people helping me fiture out how to clip the bitmap under the rect I just drew on it. Sep 16 11:16:09 :) Sep 16 11:16:15 look at apidemos Sep 16 11:16:37 drawing section has various clipping methods Sep 16 11:20:19 <_genuser_> squ: right, so I got the square drawn on image. I can drag it. I can resize it. when I hit crop, I need to translate those bounds into that section in the image and extract that. Sep 16 11:21:12 well it is easy as that in imagemagick -crop "100x100+5+5" Sep 16 11:21:27 where 5 is offset and 100 is size Sep 16 11:21:34 x and y Sep 16 11:23:47 <_genuser_> squ: 1) imagemagick is programmaitcally available? 2) if image if centerFit etc. etc. the actual left of the image doens't align with left edge of ImageView necessarily. 3) the actual Image is obviously much bigger ahn screen size. So I need to translate the coordinate on the screen-fitted image into the actual bitmap. Sep 16 11:24:10 <_genuser_> squ: having said that, it's probably still just as easy as something you said. I'm just needing to work thru it mentally probably. Sep 16 11:24:38 yes Sep 16 11:25:16 _genuser_: thank you! Sep 16 11:26:06 <_genuser_> arancio: enjoy. Sep 16 11:26:27 <_genuser_> squ: thanks, I'm gonna look at imagemagick stuff. Sep 16 11:26:55 <_genuser_> interesting, when I get ref to canvas in onDraw of extended Imageview, clipRect doens't clip the underlying image. Only what I draw on it. Sep 16 11:29:16 hola Sep 16 11:29:20 any eralm users in here ? Sep 16 11:29:23 realm I mean Sep 16 11:33:03 tilerendering: hi! I only use eralm, sorry. Sep 16 11:33:57 arancio: what is eralm ? Sep 16 11:34:17 hey guys, i have an image here: http://i.imgur.com/u4jwxB1.jpg which has metadata specifying the orientation, but i haven't been able to read that metadata in my android app. Sep 16 11:34:37 tilerendering: it's a fork of realm. They just swapped the first two letters of every method name Sep 16 11:34:45 and i'm pretty sure i'm using the exifinterface correctly Sep 16 11:35:17 arancio: man, this is funny. I m sure it´s hip too. want some cold coffee from my favorite arbista ? Sep 16 11:35:28 sigh. Sep 16 11:35:43 :) Sep 16 11:35:46 :) Sep 16 11:36:46 arancio: I wonder: when I parse json into a realm object, while an instance of realm is open, will it automatically be inserted/updated (depending on whether it finds the object already there or not) to persistent store ? Sep 16 11:36:52 that would be great. Sep 16 11:36:56 but I need to be sure Sep 16 11:38:03 have you read the docs for creating realm objects? Sep 16 11:43:21 some of it, yeah. basically what they say is that my assumption is true Sep 16 11:43:32 but I want to make sure by asking realm users, rather than realm “doc-readers”. Sep 16 11:44:11 i'd imagine they're one in the same Sep 16 11:44:39 *shrug* so am I right with the assumption ? Sep 16 11:46:00 you have to commit your transaction Sep 16 11:46:23 of course Sep 16 11:46:38 this is what I read on the topic: https://realm.io/docs/java/latest/#controlling-the-lifecycle-of-realm-instances Sep 16 11:46:43 assumptions are the mother of all fuckups tilerendering /: Sep 16 11:46:57 this is why I verify them with experienced users, raoul11 Sep 16 11:47:04 _genuser_: you can use DrawerLayout in many ways. The tutorial you pointed uses a RecyclerView as navigation drawer. It's not your average drawer, though. You typically use a NavigationView. Hence the difference in code. There is no right or wrong, better or worse. Sep 16 11:47:36 am using a drawerlayout with baseadapter and listview Sep 16 11:47:46 coz some people just wanna see the world burns Sep 16 11:50:04 anyway, tilerendering this may be what you're referring to: https://realm.io/docs/java/latest/#auto-updating-results Sep 16 11:50:42 je vous remercie infiniment, monsieur eemgr Sep 16 11:51:05 but if you're creating a realm object you'll need to commit your transaction or execute it in one of those transaction blocks Sep 16 11:51:53 understood, yeah, dont worry, they call me the god of 2phase-commit Sep 16 11:52:36 So for some reason I haven't been able to get the exif data for the orientation of this photo in Android: http://i.imgur.com/u4jwxB1.jpg Sep 16 11:52:48 If I look at the exif data using an online tool I can see the information properly Sep 16 11:53:10 is this your living room ? cool Sep 16 11:53:43 no, its an old office space, and that's highly irrelevant Sep 16 11:54:41 :/ Sep 16 12:00:17 nice lamp Sep 16 12:00:23 fits nicely Sep 16 12:00:42 draws attention from ceiling Sep 16 12:00:50 So it looks like my exif data is being scrapped when I convert the image to a bitmap and then upload the data Sep 16 12:01:02 but that doesn't change the fact that i can't even read the exif data to begin with :p Sep 16 12:07:48 eemgr: ever declared to ralm a class to be the primary key ? like: class Book, with primary key BookPK, and further field description, while BookPK holds attributes author, title and year ? Sep 16 12:08:20 realm doesn't support composite keys, afaik Sep 16 12:08:26 i wasn't aware you could do that Sep 16 12:08:44 my primary keys have always been single variables, ideally integers Sep 16 12:09:52 eemgr: the way I described could be a workaround. also, I would have expected realm to use the .equals method on objects to determine whether they already are persisted or should be updated Sep 16 12:10:03 tilerendering: do you have a link that shows what you're talking about in the docs? Sep 16 12:10:09 that s what most db managers do btw Sep 16 12:10:43 eemgr: I saw in the docs that realm is only supporting one field as primary key. and I wonder why. when it´s so much simpler to let the users just define their own .equals method Sep 16 12:10:45 tilerendering: realm has an "insert or update" functionality Sep 16 12:11:03 i know. Sep 16 12:11:13 it s Realm.insertOrUpdate. Yes. Sep 16 12:11:18 tilerendering: realm has a lot of big fucking issues and i've nearly jumped off a bridge because of it several times Sep 16 12:11:23 I'm no longer recommending it to anyone Sep 16 12:11:28 aha why ? Sep 16 12:11:39 the fact that it doesn't support polymorphism is a huge issue Sep 16 12:11:44 you have to model your objects using composition Sep 16 12:11:51 mh. Sep 16 12:11:59 why would you need polymorphism ? Sep 16 12:12:10 ??????????? Sep 16 12:12:13 I dont have this issue with my entity layer, I think. Sep 16 12:12:37 raoul11: do you know why Firebase Analytics would show me that 10 people have made a purchase? I don't have any IAPs and the app is free :O Sep 16 12:12:39 why do you need polymorphism in your persistence layer ? Sep 16 12:13:25 tilerendering: because it makes sense, and it's not just your "persistence layer", it's your business layer logic. I can think of tons of reasons for it. Sep 16 12:13:53 ok Sep 16 12:14:02 anyway - unfortunately i dont have time to chat about the obvious benefits of polymorphism Sep 16 12:14:03 well I dont need it, in the whole model/persistence layer Sep 16 12:14:10 let me know if you have any other one-off questions Sep 16 12:14:15 no problem, Captain Obvious. Sep 16 12:14:27 btw: this seems to be the only current workaround: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/realm-java/DEdUVTS7n-I Sep 16 12:18:32 ugly hack, but i suppose it'll work Sep 16 12:19:45 I'm also not sure on the performance tradeoffs associated with that method Sep 16 12:20:23 but if you aren't writing thousands of rows at a time you're probably fine Sep 16 12:23:50 How do you typically use material design icons? You hand pick them and add the icons you use in your project? Sep 16 12:23:55 a .equals approach would have been nicer though Sep 16 12:34:36 VerbalKint_ there are auto events that firebase logs Sep 16 12:34:39 What are the pros and cons of using AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter vs GcmTaskService to perform all network based calls synchronously. Sep 16 12:34:46 not sure why it shows u purchases Sep 16 12:42:49 raoul11: probably a bug because when I try to view them it says 0 Sep 16 12:43:02 hi Sep 16 12:43:22 Another case of fine Google engineering Sep 16 12:43:59 How do I get networkResponse [I need headers] and statusCode from any volley request, regardless of success/failure? Sep 16 12:44:55 lets talk about fine google engineering - getting images from the gallery gives you a content:// path, which "may or may not" lead actually be a path to an actual file... But to get Exif data from ExifInterface before API 23 you must have a file path. Sep 16 12:45:19 s/lead actually/ actually/ Sep 16 12:45:51 "want to get exif data on an image in your gallery? fuck you" - google Sep 16 12:46:29 lol Sep 16 13:01:01 How do I get networkResponse [I need headers] and statusCode from any volley request, regardless of success/failure? Sep 16 13:01:33 what's behind all this google engineering bashing? Sep 16 13:03:10 I bet you people are Apple shills who infiltrated this channel Sep 16 13:03:24 arancio: I have no idea what was said before I joined, but Google Engineering does deserve some bashijng. Sep 16 13:03:36 And I'm definitely not an Apple shill. Sep 16 13:18:05 I'm back! Sep 16 13:23:59 arancio_ - hurray Sep 16 13:48:43 Hi all. I'm planning to implement Argumented reality in my app. I am looking for open source libray to integrate with my app. Can anyone knows some good tutorial or open_source library? Sep 16 13:49:13 argumented reality :D Sep 16 13:52:49 Yes. Sep 16 13:52:58 I think you mean augmented Sep 16 13:55:56 Yah. its augmented reality. sorry. Sep 16 13:56:24 I don't have an answer for you though, sorry :( Sep 16 14:01:57 Hi all, is there a way to add a custom dictionary to a RecognitionListener? I have several brand names that Google likely won't know that need to be detected Sep 16 14:07:59 no Sep 16 14:08:51 Anyone here got an example of a project which uses EventBus with Fragments? Sep 16 14:09:14 iv been using: Intent nextScreenIntent = new Intent(activityClassName.this, NextScreen.class); , but now i want to move this method to the Input.class(activityClass contains instance of Input.class), I have tried in input class (activityClassName.class, NextScreen.class) but it does not work Sep 16 14:09:54 hi Sep 16 14:10:10 i am adding cardElevation to my cardView but is not working. Can help me ? Sep 16 14:10:51 markyosullivan, is there something difficult about that? Sep 16 14:11:09 I didn't think so Sep 16 14:11:20 but it's not working for me :( Sep 16 14:11:57 i need to use context? Sep 16 14:12:46 arancio: orange vs apple ? :) Sep 16 14:13:20 njcomsec, pass context to the method? Sep 16 14:13:27 <_genuser_> can you access the imageview canvas, if anyone know? Sep 16 14:13:39 markyosullivan, can you be more specifuc Sep 16 14:14:07 _genuser_, extend imageview Sep 16 14:14:20 No subscribers registered for event class me.markosullivan.practiceapp.eventbus.CustomMessageEvent Sep 16 14:14:25 No subscribers registered for event class org.greenrobot.eventbus.NoSubscriberEvent Sep 16 14:14:49 are you subscribing? Sep 16 14:15:06 and if you are, how/when Sep 16 14:15:07 I've inserted the register within onStart, onStop has unregister, I've got my CustomMessageEvent class created which is sent from Fragment 1 and the onEvent method is within Fragment 2 Sep 16 14:15:37 onStart / onStop is within Fragment 2 which has the @subscribe onEvent method Sep 16 14:15:40 are both fragments active in the acgivity Sep 16 14:15:54 like this? [activity class]: input.processMenuBarInput(this); [input class]: public void processMenuBarInput(Context context){ Intent screenIntent = new Intent(context, Screen.class); } Sep 16 14:16:18 any? Sep 16 14:16:20 i am adding cardElevation to my cardView but is not working. Can help me ? Sep 16 14:16:27 how i can put elevation in CardView Sep 16 14:16:50 njcomsec, sure Sep 16 14:17:57 raoul11: oh man, have a read at THIS. It's part of the app reject email that I got from www.slideme.org http://hastebin.com/lisotusase.vbs Sep 16 14:18:12 t0th_-_, I don't remember by heart and am on a really full bus right now so it's hard to stay standing and type/search Sep 16 14:18:27 I think both Fragments are active Sep 16 14:18:27 thanks, man Sep 16 14:18:32 anyway to check? Sep 16 14:18:57 raoul11: the other "wrong" thing that I did was that I didn't submit my real name Sep 16 14:18:58 markyosullivan, log onstart and onstop? Sep 16 14:20:54 will check now Zharf Sep 16 14:20:56 raoul11: kinda rich coming from a rinky dink app store that I barely wanted to submit to Sep 16 14:22:21 t0th_-_, I think my issues with cardview was that elevation doesn't increase margins so it gets under other viewd Sep 16 14:22:39 <_genuser_> Zharf: I have extended it. I can access it in onDraw. I was trying to access it outside of that. but it's alright, I'll do the drawing in onDraw. Sep 16 14:22:44 working here Sep 16 14:22:53 i add cardUseCompatPadding and work Sep 16 14:24:21 t0th_-_, cool Sep 16 14:25:49 is there any reason to make the game menu/landing screen a different activity to the game play screen? the game play screen has a button to the menu always visible so the back button functionality is redundant Sep 16 14:26:47 Zharf, onStop is called before the second fragment is created Sep 16 14:32:20 what is that VerbalKint Sep 16 14:32:25 How do you keep the fragment running in the background? Sep 16 14:33:08 raoul11: tried submitting my app to this alternate app store called www.slideme.org and I got rejected because I submitted it solely for "monetization through ads" :D Sep 16 14:33:42 tell em you put ads coz you wanna help hungry kids in africa Sep 16 14:43:36 markyosullivan, I'lltry to help when I get home Sep 16 14:43:49 hard to do on the bus right now Sep 16 14:45:15 Thanks! Sep 16 15:14:30 hey guys, i need some help Sep 16 15:14:47 trying to figure out why, when i replace a fragment, the size of the frame layout appears to increase Sep 16 15:15:11 what layour mode is the frame layout in Sep 16 15:15:14 the increses pushes my bottom navigation bar such that the soft action button (back, recent, home) cuts off Sep 16 15:15:22 tx: default Sep 16 15:15:34 are its width/height set to wrap Sep 16 15:15:38 or match / fill parent Sep 16 15:15:40 match Sep 16 15:15:41 (or is it fixed) Sep 16 15:16:36 Is this something we need to worry about on Android? https://discuss.kotlinlang.org/t/performance-intrinsics-checknotnull-called-for-every-parameter/1971 Sep 16 15:16:51 It's actually Intrinsics.checkParameterIsNotNull. Sep 16 15:17:13 And I think it applies to both parameters and return values. Sep 16 15:20:43 tx: any other suggestions? Sep 16 15:23:00 xximjasonxx: It's appearing on top of the system UI? Weird. Sep 16 15:23:26 under Sep 16 15:24:15 Well, it sounds like the contents is simply too large. Sep 16 15:24:32 are* Sep 16 15:26:36 markyosullivan, how do you add your fragments Sep 16 15:27:56 Zharf, PM me I can send you a link to the project to clone Sep 16 15:28:06 might be easier for you to quickly look through Sep 16 15:28:27 why should I pm you first for you to do that? :) Sep 16 15:28:55 Cause everyone could look at it if I post it here :D Sep 16 15:28:58 just give me the link, in private if you want :) Sep 16 15:29:13 you can initiate the private messages too :) Sep 16 15:30:01 I can't with this client :D Sep 16 15:30:06 -.- Sep 16 15:30:24 Can you type `/query Zharf`? Sep 16 15:31:27 `/query Zharf` Sep 16 15:31:35 this is not working :D Sep 16 15:31:38 Haha Sep 16 15:35:11
