**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Oct 20 02:59:59 2016 Oct 20 03:02:01 Hi all I'm seeking support on creating a webview app for my forum here's what I got https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQuestions/comments/58ed3a/how_can_i_add_upload_and_download_options_to_my/ Oct 20 03:03:06 GhostNinja: Edit the post and prefix all lines with four spaces. That's needed for code blocks in Markdown. Oct 20 03:03:38 So use 4 spaces to make it code on reddit? Oct 20 03:03:44 Yeah. Oct 20 03:04:15 The text lines shouldn't be indented, though. Oct 20 03:04:22 They're descriptive. Oct 20 03:05:38 That's way better. Oct 20 03:06:03 Well I'm just seeking help fixing that code and adding the option to allow users to upload and download from within the app Oct 20 03:06:12 You're missing closing braces though. Oct 20 03:06:47 Closing brackets where? Sorry I'm new to android coding. Oct 20 03:06:48 I know, but you can't chuck an unreadable mess at people and expect help. :S Oct 20 03:09:32 I think your question has nothing to do with WebView. Oct 20 03:09:51 Then what does it have to do with? Oct 20 03:09:59 I think your question is really "Why am I getting `Gradle tasks [:app:assembleDebug] Observed package id 'add-ons;addon-google_apis-google-16' in inconsistent location...`". Oct 20 03:10:40 Ok why would I be getting that? Oct 20 03:11:53 Actually, it seems I'm wrong. They might just be warnings anyway. Oct 20 03:12:26 GhostNinja: What exact question are you asking? Oct 20 03:13:31 The question I really am asking is what do I need to do to get my code working and how to add the options to upload and download from within the app. Oct 20 03:13:35 anyone try the new bottom nav view yet ? Oct 20 03:15:33 Anyone know a good card swipe library or a way to implement it easily? Oct 20 03:15:34 ok, lol here goes nothing Oct 20 03:16:05 You still there TacticalJoke? Oct 20 03:16:13 Wow, they're back to bottom navigation. Oct 20 03:16:22 GhostNinja: I can't really tell what you're asking. Oct 20 03:16:25 I am having a few issues with this library https://github.com/Diolor/Swipecards Oct 20 03:18:07 TacticalJoke I'm just seeking help on creating a webview app for my forum that allows users to upload files and download files without leaving my app Oct 20 03:18:19 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/40052193/swipeable-stackable-cards-does-not-show-image-of-first-card - Anyone know how I can fix this issue Oct 20 03:18:33 g00s: which lib is that? part of the support libs? Oct 20 03:18:42 teasp00n yeah Oct 20 03:19:18 g00s: sweet, ive been using a community thing for bottombar nav. is it like this? https://github.com/roughike/BottomBar Oct 20 03:19:37 yeah i've heard of that, but don't change yet Oct 20 03:19:41 i have a bad feeling Oct 20 03:19:55 * g00s testing Oct 20 03:19:56 g00s: haha ok, i'll let you be my guinea pig :p Oct 20 03:20:52 @teasp00n I have been using bottombar nav but it seems to be pretty laggy Oct 20 03:21:25 have you experienced those type of issues? I am using the color switcher and shy Oct 20 03:21:40 Lonesoldier728: the new one g00s is talking about or the project i linked? Oct 20 03:21:49 the one you linked Oct 20 03:22:27 nah it doesn't seem laggy to me... im not using the color switcher though. just a couple of tabs Oct 20 03:22:34 pretty vanilla usage really Oct 20 03:23:32 TacticalJoke: What I'm saying is I want to create a app that will connect to my website and allow the users to upload files from within the app and download files from within the app without leaving the app Oct 20 03:24:21 I need help with the NavigationDrawer activity. I am using fragments to view different layouts when clicking a navigation button. But the problem is, the fragment layout is being overlaaped with content_main layout. How can I remove the content_main.xml so tha when I click the button, it only shows the respective fragment layout. Oct 20 03:25:13 GhostNinja: Sorry, don't know much about file uploading/downloading with WebView. Oct 20 03:25:30 Crap Oct 20 03:26:41 Is there a way of creating a app that uses api to connect to my site and add the uploading/downloading option to it? Oct 20 03:27:37 Yes ofc, create a rest api and interact with it Oct 20 03:27:59 How do I do that orbyt? Oct 20 03:28:14 What are you using on the backend? Oct 20 03:28:44 My website which is using Invision Power Board Oct 20 03:29:09 It has api options built in Oct 20 03:30:01 man i get so many AS internal errors these days ,,,, Oct 20 03:30:33 "Error executing task com.android.tools.idea.uibuilder.editor.NlPreviewForm$$Lambda$200/924642834@44a93670" Oct 20 03:30:38 haha, good luck google Oct 20 03:31:17 Can we please let the "BBS" *die* already? Oct 20 03:31:19 For forum software I've only used vB, but sure check out the docs if it has something built in. You could also create a very quick express app and build out an api like that Oct 20 03:31:28 @ GhostNinja Oct 20 03:32:41 Could you help me do that orbyt I'm new to android coding? Oct 20 03:33:05 Dagmar what BBS ? Oct 20 03:33:11 None of that has anything to do with Android GhostNinja Oct 20 03:33:17 and google is your friend Oct 20 03:33:44 Yea Google has been a b*tch to me lately lol Oct 20 03:34:23 Google has been a batch to you? Oct 20 03:34:26 oh GhostNinja wants to make a pretty viewer Oct 20 03:34:36 Hmm, it seems that (at least if your minSdkVersion is 21 {or maybe even 20}) you don't need NavigationView to get a good-looking navigation drawer. Oct 20 03:34:47 lol back in 2010 our topic said something like "and please, no more pretty viewers" Oct 20 03:35:14 And it only took me about three hours to figure that out. Oct 20 03:35:30 And about 200 browser tabs. Reading through support libraries. And so on. Oct 20 03:35:37 I'm just looking for help in creating a app for my forum to try to help get me more members Oct 20 03:35:51 GhostNinja: I think you're looking for someone to create the app. Oct 20 03:36:15 And then, right as they celebrate the creation, you shout "It's my app!" Oct 20 03:36:28 If someone was willing to help I'd be ok with that but I have no job or money to pay anyone Oct 20 03:36:53 Yea I don't take credit for something I didn't do Oct 20 03:37:15 GhostNinja i'm just going to save you a lot of hassle - *DONT BOTHER* Oct 20 03:37:27 an app for a forum, lol Oct 20 03:37:44 Any solutions? Oct 20 03:37:44 terrible idea Oct 20 03:37:48 terible very bad idea Oct 20 03:37:50 Can't they just use a web browser? Oct 20 03:37:56 hugely terrible bad idea Oct 20 03:38:07 Hey I'm just trying to find ways in getting members for my forum and XDA has one for theirs Oct 20 03:38:12 ThunderIRON: What is being overlaid? Oct 20 03:38:28 XDA is literally *filled* with people who fap to design docs Oct 20 03:38:38 GhostNinja maybe they don't know you're there because you're a ghost ninja , like stealthy and all Oct 20 03:38:40 Of _course_ they'll write an app whether it makes sense or not Oct 20 03:38:54 Lol Oct 20 03:39:46 The content_main.xml isn't being removed from the view. Instead the fragment layouts are being overlaid on it Oct 20 03:41:02 Well I'm outta here since I can't get help c'ya Oct 20 03:41:21 ThunderIRON: Can't you just use Fragments? I don't see why you're using and also Fragments. Oct 20 03:41:36 If you just use Fragments, with `content_main` being the Fragment container, it'll work. Oct 20 03:41:57 How to do that? Oct 20 03:42:21 Use the `content_main` FrameLayout/whatever as the thing that contains the Fragments. Oct 20 03:42:42 Then dynamically add/remove Fragments from it. Oct 20 03:43:15 Whatever you do, don't define a Fragment in XML. It'll simply not do what you want. Oct 20 03:43:28 Fragments defined in XML cannot be removed/replaced. Oct 20 03:43:41 I mean ``. Oct 20 03:43:44 I just right clicked the on the "app" folder on the left side and selected New -> Fragment -> Fragment (Blank) Oct 20 03:44:30 i copied and pasted this into my layout, and nothing shows up Oct 20 03:44:31 https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/BottomNavigationView.html Oct 20 03:44:47 literally exactly the same, nothing Oct 20 03:44:57 lol fml support lib .0 release Oct 20 03:45:24 g00s: Ahh, good ol' Android dev. Oct 20 03:45:35 they don't even try Oct 20 03:46:09 TacticalJoke and i'm convinced google hates us all Oct 20 03:49:09 g00s: does it show up in the heirarchy viewer? Oct 20 03:49:20 The thing about hatred is that you have to give a damn. The opposite of love seems to be indifference. Oct 20 03:49:28 doesn't show up in layout bounds, so maybe IR fucked up Oct 20 03:49:32 If Google hated us, it'd be an improvement. Oct 20 03:49:48 TacticalJoke lol, you know there is a book about that Oct 20 03:49:52 :D Oct 20 03:49:56 Which book? Oct 20 03:50:12 you can reciprocate in 3 ways: turning towards, turning against, and turning away Oct 20 03:51:03 TacticalJoke cheesy title, see 2nd review :) https://www.amazon.com/Relationship-Cure-Strengthening-Marriage-Friendships/dp/0609809539 Oct 20 03:51:12 gottman is famous though Oct 20 03:52:44 Looks good. He sounds familiar, but I don't recognise any of his books. Oct 20 03:53:29 so what they did, was they invited couples to their 'love labs' at university and taped everything for 2 weeks Oct 20 03:53:48 and they broke down all the interactions into those 3 categories Oct 20 03:54:32 the ones who were most likely to separa had the most turning away interactions Oct 20 03:54:53 That makes sense. Oct 20 03:55:10 Anger = "I care". Oct 20 03:55:11 obviously couples volunteered for this :) Oct 20 03:55:37 its an old book, i wonder if he'll revise it with new info Oct 20 03:56:16 Dude, I am delighted. You can use DrawerLayout without NavigationView and get material navigation drawers. Oct 20 03:56:39 I didn't wanna use NavigationView because it needs AppCompat. Oct 20 03:56:59 Hi, I'm sorry about this question, I've been trying to make sense of that for 3 days. Many people tried to help and I'm greatful for that but I'm still unable to understand, I hope I'm not hurting any one's feelings. Few days ago, I asked if Activities, Services, Broad cast receivers, and content providers were classes, I was answered yes but for me activities are objects because when the startActivity method is called, an object is Oct 20 03:56:59 created and the onCreate method is called. Is that wrong? Oct 20 03:57:01 I guess they fixed DrawerLayout when they created NavigationView. Oct 20 03:57:41 soulisson: An object is just an instance of a class. Oct 20 03:58:45 TacticalJoke: yes, and for me an activity is an instance of a class that extends the "Activity" class Oct 20 03:58:46 soulisson: Why are you asking thisvquestion? Oct 20 03:59:08 -v Oct 20 04:00:34 TacticalJoke: I want to understand, I'm not a dev, but I have to learn android dev because I've to audit Android Apps, I'm trying to get the terminology straight Oct 20 04:02:31 soulisson: To answer your direct question, you are right. When `startActivity` is called, the Android framework instantiates (creates an instance/object of) the Activity class and then calls `onCreate` on that new instance. Oct 20 04:02:51 And other stuff. Oct 20 04:03:33 TacticalJoke: So is it reasonable to say that the activity is actually the object that gets created from the Activity subclass? Oct 20 04:04:22 Pretty much, but some people might take issue with "created from" there. Oct 20 04:05:35 TacticalJoke: why? Oct 20 04:08:17 It's more natural to say something like "the activity is an instance of the Activity class (or the FooActivity class -- note that instances of classes are instances of their superclasses by definition)". Oct 20 04:09:06 TacticalJoke: ok, thank you Oct 20 04:09:10 I definitely think it's right to say that "the/an activity" refers to an object while "Activity" refers to the class. Oct 20 04:09:38 You could also say "the/an Activity", of course. Oct 20 04:09:59 TacticalJoke: thanks very much Oct 20 04:16:50 lol so in these docs https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/BottomNavigationView.html Oct 20 04:17:01 that snippet ... design:menu="@menu/my_navigation_items" Oct 20 04:17:23 how come design:menu is not listed under "XML attributes" Oct 20 04:18:22 these guys can't even get 2 paragraphs of documentation right Oct 20 04:22:59 g00s: This is why I'm scared to touch new stuff. :s Oct 20 04:24:51 TacticalJoke i typically wasn't ... until android. always lived on the bleeding edge Oct 20 04:24:58 but yeah, ptsd like you said Oct 20 04:25:23 at bigCo i was always getting hell from architects using new shiny things :D Oct 20 04:25:26 Yeah, I always did too. Oct 20 04:26:14 maybe i'll just wake up tomorrow and find a /r/androiddev entry on how to do this, or whats going on ... Oct 20 04:29:00 ok, i think i found the problem, retards Oct 20 04:29:23 shit, my profs in 'how to program 101' would have given me F for this shit Oct 20 04:33:01 Was it that it needed to be `app:menu` or whatever? Oct 20 04:33:54 yeah Oct 20 04:35:39 well its nice that it does the cool little animation bit Oct 20 04:55:52 https://twitter.com/HenryHoffman/status/694184106440200192 Oct 20 05:01:16 TacticalJoke on a 12 string :D Oct 20 05:02:05 haha Oct 20 05:08:15 Can I nominate `fitsSystemWindows` the worst-named variable of all time? Oct 20 05:08:36 Every time I come across it, the name confuses me, and I once again forget how it works. Oct 20 05:13:29 oh nice, tim wu wrote another book Oct 20 05:16:12 "Attention merchant: an industrial-scale harvester of human attention. A firm whose business model is the mass capture of attention for resale to advertisers." Oct 20 05:16:17 must .. buy Oct 20 06:28:21 Anyone know where I'm supposed to through the LG source files? Is it supposed to be in croot? Oct 20 07:07:14 My Fragments have a static factory method named newInstance(). It sometimes takes a a bunch of arguments that I stuff into a Bundle and set on fragment.setArguments(args). Now I really need my Fragment to know about one of its parent Fragment's Views. Can I pass it like the other args? Oct 20 07:09:46 What I really want to do, is for a child Fragment to play an Animation exactly above another Views that is inflated by the parent Fragment. So my thought is to simply let the parent Fragment pass the child Fragment the View upon Fragment construction Oct 20 07:12:19 Perhaps I should have Fparent and Fchild obtain a reference to the same Activity using onAttach and respectively set and get the View from there? Oct 20 07:16:32 Or maybe I could just childFragment.setTheView(view) from parentFragment. Oct 20 07:17:32 But for some reason I find this ugly. In a way it messes with lifecycle; I want the Fragment to be selfcontained after construction-time. Oct 20 07:19:15 Any thoughts? Oct 20 07:22:21 Use a callback Oct 20 07:26:18 That's what I meant with the onAttach(). Both Fragments would have to contact their parnet Activity though. Or did you mean something else? Oct 20 07:27:36 There's getParentFragment Oct 20 07:28:21 There is?! Oct 20 07:28:57 setTargetFragment as well, if one isn't a parent of the other Oct 20 07:29:11 Oh, but the childFragment is really hosted in a ViewPager that resides in the parentFragment. Oct 20 07:30:00 That doesn't matter, it's a child fragment if you use childfragmentmanager.. which you should in that case Oct 20 07:31:31 That's good news! This could be the link I've been missing for so long. Oct 20 07:32:05 But.. how should I do this? Oct 20 07:33:44 My parentFragment has a FragmentStatePagerAdapter. I should not pass this getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager() but getChildFragmentManager()? Oct 20 07:33:59 Yes Oct 20 07:34:36 Surprised it hasn't broken yet :) Oct 20 07:35:39 My Activities all extend BaseActivity, and my fragments all extend a BaseFragment that attaches to BaseActivity. It works like a charm. Except I don't care about Activities right how; I want my parent Fragment. Oct 20 07:57:50 Wow, it works. Oct 20 07:58:08 SimonVT: Thanks! I don't know why I haven't see this before =) Oct 20 07:59:42 What a relief! Oct 20 07:59:49 np :) Oct 20 08:02:32 I see there's also a onAttachFragment(Fragment child) that the parentFragment could possibly use to after its child has been attached. But I prefer the callback. Oct 20 08:58:24 hello is it possible to reference an raw object as a TypedArray? Oct 20 09:04:08 Does anyone know how I get the text for a RadioGroup? Like in this link: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/controls/radiobutton.html Oct 20 09:04:11 the "Attending" Oct 20 09:04:41 is that just a formatted TextArea above the RadioGroup, or is there some sort of attrribute you can apply to the RadioGroup like labvel or text (my IDE shows neither as an option) Oct 20 09:06:23 hi Oct 20 09:06:33 which font is used for the clock on the lockscreen? Oct 20 09:06:40 roboto or I am wrong Oct 20 09:06:40 ? Oct 20 09:07:59 Ben_1: I would imagine that depends on the phone/settings Oct 20 09:08:09 http://content.guardianapis.com/search?q=trump&api-key=test&show-fields=thumbnail&orderBy=newest2 Why does this query work even though I misspelled orderBy. It should be: http://content.guardianapis.com/search?q=donald%20trump&api-key=test&show-fields=thumbnail&from-date=2016-10-17&orderBy=newest1 EDIT: It was not orderBY, it was order-by. orderBy was just a field name in the JSON response, but not the string to append Oct 20 09:08:11 stock android Oct 20 09:10:21 sdousley: I mean the default android Oct 20 09:13:29 By this and other experiments, I realize JSON is very forgiving, I can write thumbnailS instead of thumbnail and it still works, I don't know why. Oct 20 09:13:50 Ben_1: I'm not sure on that, do you have a screenshot? I use Samsung, so not really stock android Oct 20 09:13:56 well, afaik it isn't Oct 20 09:14:20 You could maybe run the screenshot through https://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ to see what the font is Oct 20 09:41:32 I have some class properties defined as: final private int ALWAYS = 1; Oct 20 09:41:47 I want to use that in a case statement within a switch, but it's saying "Constant expression required" Oct 20 09:41:54 I thought by being final, they were constant? Oct 20 09:45:12 @sdousley use enum Oct 20 09:45:21 or make it static Oct 20 09:46:09 I just tried to make it static, but I still get the same issue. Oct 20 09:46:26 tiger98: how would I use enum? Never used those before. Oct 20 09:47:46 TheSchaf: I have defined: private static final int ALWAYS; Oct 20 09:47:59 then in the class I added: static { ALWAYS = 1; } Oct 20 09:48:27 oh, never mind, I did it with private static final int ALWAYS = 1; Oct 20 09:48:30 now it's not complaining :) Oct 20 09:59:26 anyone done much with IntelliJ? I'm trying to view the SQLite database for my app, and apparently I should be able to View > Tool Windows > Database, but I don't see a Database option Oct 20 10:09:20 That's a paid feature Oct 20 10:12:13 Ah, ok Oct 20 10:13:09 Don't think I could get my company to fork out for Enterprise IntelliJ Oct 20 10:13:19 not when Community does everything I've needed of it so far Oct 20 10:14:42 There are other tools like stetho you can use instead Oct 20 10:19:22 ah, I'm not that worried, was just trying to set default RadioButton in a group Oct 20 10:19:25 which didn't seem to work Oct 20 10:20:28 And why I didn't think about Log.d()'ing the values from the db first I don't know Oct 20 10:38:28 for some reason, my onClicked method is not storing the selected value on my radio groups :( Oct 20 10:56:02 is there way to get app resource utilisation from the android system Oct 20 10:56:21 like battery usage and how many times the user opened an application Oct 20 10:57:17 one of the method is to use Logcat prior to lolipop and use UsageApi for android 5 and above Oct 20 10:57:56 is there something like Usage Api that can help me for prior versions of android Oct 20 11:29:28 As FrameLayout docs say: Child views are drawn in a stack but when i tried to create customized classes of each child view inside framelayout then this stack is not maintaining Oct 20 11:31:14 customize button child view taking top over all other childs Oct 20 11:50:12 Does anyone have any prob install the layout in android 2.2.2?I get a fail install for some reason. Oct 20 11:50:30 After i install the sdk build tools. Oct 20 11:50:51 I hope someone can help me? Oct 20 11:54:03 ? Oct 20 11:54:53 now working : Buttons in Lollipop and higher have a default elevation to them which causes them to always draw on top. StateListAnimator was culprit.. Oct 20 11:55:12 hey min2 Oct 20 11:55:25 hi Oct 20 11:56:19 You have prob with android 2.2.2 when you install the sdk tools?I get a fail to install package error after i install all of them on the mac. Oct 20 11:58:42 I don't understand why i get the build fail but after it done it say installed. Oct 20 11:58:51 mine is 2.2 not 2.2.2 Oct 20 11:59:43 min2,You have the same prob? Oct 20 12:00:02 it did it in android 2.2 to Oct 20 12:00:35 installed failed please check the install logs error i getting. Oct 20 12:01:16 no, mine is working fine on windows.. by the way what logs you are getting Oct 20 12:01:39 I not sure where the logs are in android studio. Oct 20 12:02:20 do they mean logcat? Oct 20 12:03:51 min2, When i install android studio 2 i get the errors after i install the sdk build tools and the when i download the layouts i get the error. Oct 20 12:06:50 Hi Oct 20 12:06:55 What does "Error:Configuration with name 'default' not found." mean? Oct 20 12:07:05 i think i go back to ios. Oct 20 12:07:19 He did it! Oct 20 12:08:18 I renamed a project folder from "really-really-so-much-longer-than-usual-name" to "short/shorter" and now I get that "Error:Configuration with name 'default' not found." Oct 20 12:09:39 you renamed it wrong Oct 20 12:09:57 adq: what do you mean? Oct 20 12:10:15 that obviously via renaming, assuming this is the only op you did, you broke something Oct 20 12:10:28 and as the error message said, he expected something he did not found Oct 20 12:10:33 s/he/it/ Oct 20 12:11:15 yeah. I also adjusted the paths in settings.gradle but it wasn't enough to fix the problem Oct 20 12:11:26 still you can learn many stuff in breaking things Oct 20 12:11:36 just investigate and try to fix your own mistake first maybe Oct 20 12:11:56 Yeah. I learned that I should get a good book about gradle Oct 20 12:12:13 I'm using I build system that I don't have a clue about Oct 20 12:12:54 i don't think you need a good book, except if you really enjoy (and have the time to) reading book Oct 20 12:13:04 a typical android developer Oct 20 12:13:11 gradle is evolving fast enough to make the book not so useful in 1 or 2 years too Oct 20 12:13:17 better buy other books Oct 20 12:13:24 Something happened and everything is magically fixed now Oct 20 12:13:32 This is so frustrating Oct 20 12:13:32 my gradle setup is just compile "..." or copy-paste random commands from libraries Oct 20 12:13:48 most of my gradle setup are very traditional too Oct 20 12:14:39 My role as developer is copying and pasting snippets from StackOverflow and implementing some business logic from time to time, when the troubles allow me Oct 20 12:14:50 It's humiliating Oct 20 12:16:21 I thought that also at the start of my 'career' Oct 20 12:16:24 but they pay me to do it Oct 20 12:16:28 and I'm doing it Oct 20 12:21:01 Then it's time for a new Q&A site for software developments Oct 20 12:21:09 and a new generation of IDEs Oct 20 12:21:15 This is my idea Oct 20 12:21:17 http://www.theallium.com/engineering/computer-programming-to-be-officially-renamed-googling-stackoverflow/ Oct 20 12:21:41 Melatonina, what new could this Q&A site have? Oct 20 12:22:13 answers should be written in something like T4, the language that Visual Studio uses for templates and snippets Oct 20 12:22:20 then when you have a problem Oct 20 12:22:44 you IDE would allow you to query the Q&A site, pick an answer and it would be immediately implemented in your code Oct 20 12:23:22 that's be awesome, sounds like quite a bit of work tho Oct 20 12:23:47 yeah, everything interesting is quite a bit of work Oct 20 12:24:41 well SO has the resources to pull such a thing off Oct 20 12:24:54 but why aren't they Oct 20 12:25:04 maybe it's even tougher than we estimate Oct 20 12:25:11 if using Theme.AppCompat, how can I remove all the graphics effect on button? for example the shadow Oct 20 12:25:24 It's much tougher than their current system Oct 20 12:26:59 it would require expressing the answers in a formal language Oct 20 12:27:14 so they don't have the resources Oct 20 12:27:30 but this is a good way to disrupt a business like StackOverflow Oct 20 12:27:36 google might Oct 20 12:28:03 This will be my next project as soon as I finish my current one Oct 20 12:28:04 but they prolly don't care Oct 20 12:28:14 what's your current one? Oct 20 12:29:18 A cooperative platform to share knowledge about rhythmic gymnastics, ballet and similar disciplines and assist people in training Oct 20 12:31:03 sharing this 'virtually' works? Oct 20 12:31:52 it's a mix between Quora and one of those training apps on steroids. Oct 20 12:32:02 I'll see if it works. Oct 20 12:32:38 when designing did you think much about scaling? Oct 20 12:32:47 and what tech for the backend do you use, just curious Oct 20 12:33:17 Google released a new version of Allo, Allo 2.0 – now with splash screen and black+white chats Oct 20 12:33:18 o.O Oct 20 12:34:00 iprime: I'm learning about that. I made some choices. If they won't work I'll use other technology Oct 20 12:34:18 Allo must be the most hated app of all times Oct 20 12:34:32 well, it’s justified Oct 20 12:34:58 people are slowly getting fed up with google just throwing everything at the wall and just seeing what sticks, Oct 20 12:35:06 cancelling loved products every few months, Oct 20 12:35:12 and completely fucking over customers Oct 20 12:35:33 the reason why many people use Google (and pay with their data) is because they get stable, reliable, usable services in return. Oct 20 12:36:00 When Google’s services are worse than whatever that geek you heard of hosts in his basement, providing Google with that data isn’t justifiable anymore Oct 20 12:36:35 now is the time for independent devs to attack Google from all corners and DESTROY them! Oct 20 12:40:28 My hosted server is down and the hosting service console says "Diskspace used: -2" O.O Oct 20 12:43:58 "System updating, please try again in 10 minutes. If problem persist, please contact support." Oct 20 12:44:23 Well, it's free hosting. I can't expect too much Oct 20 12:49:12 justJanne: Google being stupid or cleverly acting stupid in order to get attention? Oct 20 12:49:21 likely stupid Oct 20 12:49:31 it’s the same team lead who led hangouts before Oct 20 12:50:59 Seems like a google search comes up with very little articles about the 2.0 launch, so it does sound like genuine stupidity Oct 20 12:52:02 Google-certified Google stupidity Oct 20 13:02:00 Hello. Oct 20 13:03:08 Does Google Play ever publish their statistics ? Like how many overall active users is on it ? Oct 20 13:27:06 hmmm, got a little odd issue here, I have a couple of if statements for printing 2 things to the bluetooth printer, I have it ask if A should be printed, then if B should be printed (in the code) Oct 20 13:27:39 but for some reason, it asks if B should be printed first (using a Dialog) and if I choose yes, prints B, then asks if A should be printed. Oct 20 13:29:57 sdousley, you are showing both in sequence, the B dialog is over the A dialog Oct 20 13:30:46 Ah, that makes sense. Oct 20 13:30:54 is there any way to hold off on the B dialog till the A dialog is cleared? Oct 20 13:31:12 I thought stuff like that locked the UI thread (reason for me doing it in there) Oct 20 13:31:30 you have to show B as a result of the A Oct 20 13:31:48 ah ok Oct 20 13:33:27 I guess, I could set the dialogs up before the if statements, then just call the dialog.show() wherever needed couldn't I Oct 20 13:38:29 Create when needed Oct 20 14:40:06 Anyone know where the default location for screenshots taken from the emulator is? Oct 20 14:47:53 sdousley: probably your desktop Oct 20 14:48:45 sdousley: click on the 3-dot button ("extended controls"), then choose "settings" Oct 20 14:49:03 sdousley: you have "Screenshot save location", mine was set to the desktop Oct 20 14:49:49 sdousley: and in fact the snapshots appears on my desktop as PNG Oct 20 14:58:37 Hey, How can I make the background of a LinearLayout a progressbar? Oct 20 15:02:08 s0ullight: You probably want to use a FrameLayout to stack it over an _actual_ progressBar Oct 20 15:03:18 Hey guys :) I have the following problem: I launch an activity from my mainactivity. On pressing back, I return at the mainactivity. Everything fine. But if I switched between apps before and return to my app, pressing back brings me to my launcher. Does anyone know how to fix that? Oct 20 15:03:26 Melatonina: you're corret (Desktop) Oct 20 15:03:40 I canged that to a folder on the desktop :) Oct 20 15:04:07 otherwise your desktop would get cluttered in little time Oct 20 15:04:25 Melatonina: haha yeah, I generally don't put ANYTHING on my desktop Oct 20 15:04:52 gah... trying to install some of the npm stuff i need for my code editor and -_- core dump Oct 20 15:04:58 just my luck today Oct 20 15:06:05 i just cant win... my ssd is shot and my hdd i think is also going bad... Oct 20 15:18:01 pfn what is aapt2 claim to fame ? Oct 20 15:18:08 Sorry for reposting, but I have to get this sorted out quickly :P I have the following problem: I launch an activity from my mainactivity. On pressing back, I return at the mainactivity. Everything fine. But if I switched between apps before and return to my app, pressing back brings me to my launcher. Does anyone know how to fix that? Oct 20 15:27:38 I am looking at code and I think it stinks, so here is my question should you mix app.Fragment with v4.Fragment ? Oct 20 15:28:38 It basically seems like my fragment is not reusable, in any other activity except the main one its weaved into. and I am lost. Oct 20 15:28:48 In my limited experience: It works fine for a while, but there will be a point where you get in a lot of trouble :P So I'd say, if mixing, be veeery careful Oct 20 15:41:57 ugh, AS creates a folder on project_root called captures ? need to add that to my gitignore ... Oct 20 15:43:36 g00s, dunno, improvements, I guess, but it's not ready for production use yet Oct 20 15:46:45 Should I add vcs.xml to the git repository? Oct 20 15:47:09 Android Studio always asks if I want to and I never know what to say Oct 20 15:48:10 g00s, it ate shit when I tried to use it with 2.2.0--who knows when it'll be usable Oct 20 15:50:59 What does "Warning:[options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.7" mean? Oct 20 15:51:11 g00s, looks like it has some amount of support for namespacing library resources Oct 20 15:51:12 It comes from Gradle Oct 20 15:52:53 pfn ok thanks for checking Oct 20 15:54:36 you're welcome Oct 20 15:58:10 hmm, I wonder if the dealers here are going to sell the chevy bolt with a premium... that's gonna be annoying Oct 20 15:58:15 * pfn wants one to replace his tdi.... Oct 20 16:01:02 http://tinyurl.com/j7oyxcs Oct 20 16:01:52 Cool car Oct 20 16:01:54 then imma havef the fun of running 220v from my main box to the garage for charging... Oct 20 16:02:51 cool car :D Oct 20 16:03:14 $37k base price minus 10k fed/state tax credits = no brainer Oct 20 16:03:36 huh BottomNavigationView doesn't have NavigationView.setCheckedItem(int id) ... Oct 20 16:03:48 whoops Oct 20 16:06:12 g00s, did you look the source of the new divideritemdecoration Oct 20 16:06:25 adq no why lol Oct 20 16:07:03 cause there are few little things no one did in it, i think most ppl copied more or less the same code for itemdecoration (taking a drawable in param) Oct 20 16:07:23 nothing funny or bad, just few things they do i thought it was not needed (like canvas save restore) Oct 20 16:07:41 probably more copy/pasted code Oct 20 16:07:45 people love doing that Oct 20 16:07:54 i already replaced old custom itemdecoration with new ones from the support lib, so far so good (of course) Oct 20 16:08:06 I just drew rectangles in onDraw... meh Oct 20 16:08:14 yeah it's a basic line Oct 20 16:08:23 or just threw border-backgrounds on my views in the recycler Oct 20 16:08:25 only need to reserve the space for drawing it Oct 20 16:08:57 they also have a test on null against if (parent.getLayoutManager() == null) { Oct 20 16:09:30 which should fix one of the top issues i got via crashlytics in a project, when someone quits the apps Oct 20 16:09:32 who sets decorations and adapters and everything but no layout manager... Oct 20 16:09:38 it gets reset to null? Oct 20 16:09:42 no idea Oct 20 16:09:48 that's an odd bug... Oct 20 16:09:53 i just remember i had to put this defensive test Oct 20 16:10:13 and it was only crashing when finishing the activity, did not investigate Oct 20 16:10:44 it might be a race condition Oct 20 16:12:13 probably Oct 20 16:12:24 probably something like launching app and immediately rotating Oct 20 16:13:11 morning all... Oct 20 16:18:33 is there an intent broadcast when a device is connected over USB and in debug mode? Oct 20 16:19:16 not charging over USB, but the debug guy. Oct 20 16:19:16
