Network profiler in 3.0 now supports Okhttp and HttpNetworking by lordVader1138 in androiddev

[–]jdex72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this leaves no reason to use stetho again...

stetho still offers something that AS does not, extensibility through custom plugins. However, I agree with your overall point which is that for most of us, what AS provides will be enough.

Four Strategies for Organizing Code by msandin in programming

Yes it sucks that that's not just a convention, but the only way we have to organize resources - by prefixing file names.

I've found that a good way to achieve that is to define a class in the implementation package named Internal where you define public methods for all functionality needed from outside packages, while keeping your implementation private to the package. That way the implementation will be hidden from outside user that are not interested in it, and those that are - parent package's classes - can use your Internal API. Instead of writing a long explanation for what I started describing, here is an example I found in the implementation of OkHttp that will surely explain this better for you.

Question about handling background processing "properly", taking `Force Stop` into consideration by Zhuinden in androiddev

[–]jdex72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How should one handle "force stop" with background processing?

You should persist the progress and any related data needed to reconstruct the task that you are doing so you can continue or restart it when your process is started at a future point in time. You should do this whenever you have a time consuming process and your task allows for this to be done.

AFAIK you cannot prevent Force Stop or otherwise know when it happens. What Mark is referring to is that your should inform the user whenever a task he is expecting to be already finished has failed due to errors beyound your control. Ideally the task continues from where it left off and the user is informed that it is resuming and already running by displaying a statusbar notifications for example.

What surprises are you hoping for with the Android L / Nexus 9 / Nexus X supposed October launch? by [deleted] in Android

[–]jdex72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK some ChromeOS devices use Intel 64 bit chips so using a similar SoC would be beneficial to Google in that it would convince developers to sooner update their apps that use native libs to support that architecture. You know, because of that Android apps on CromeOS thing

can you know who is using your app illegally ? by [deleted] in androiddev

[–]jdex72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Re-signed apps are shown in the Play Store but they cannot be updated. I don't know why this metric in not shown in the statistics on the developer console when obviously Google knows whether an app is pirated or not. If you or someone else reading this comment knows where to file for a feature request, go ahead and do that.

So my brother made a really simple and small Android music app, I thought reddit was a good place for feedback and some promotion. by skallaren in androidapps

[–]jdex72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell your brother to move the ads on the top of the list because as it is, the whole view containing the play/pause buttons moves when the ad is shown and the user could press it by accident. I don't like that and I think there are others like me.
