Could developer upload 'component'/SDK to android market? Now it seems only have 2 type: 'application' and 'Game'. I just wonder if android market has the mechanism for developers to upload component-wise programs which can be used in others's application. Then developers may get benefit from earch others. Or Is android provide a easy way to invok and communicate with other application from one application?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm a bit scared about obfuscating my application completely. I'm afraid to run into issues where I can't figure out a bug because lines and function names wont match. Please correct me if I'm wrong... I thought maybe the simplest way to protect important parts of my code is to create a jar of the important files. I know and understand that jars are good only for classes and no xmls or other Android dependent parts. I believe it would be simple this way since I would not have to worry about obfuscating too much and breaking my project. Also, could be helpful for distributing to clients a library which they can't decompile.
In terms of obfuscating jars maybe I could do the same to the Market Licensing code to protect my paid application from pirating? What are your thoughts on my approach? Maybe bad idea? What experiences have you had with obfuscating your application? Is it not as bad as I think?
In an app with a small number of POJOs and lots of helper methods that operate on them, what's better performance-wise: to make the helper classes singletons or to make the methods static?
View 4 Replies View RelatedRather than do this by just creating a lot of strings (which I've already managed), I want to add an integer and then print those list to the screen. At the moment, I'm just trying to get one integer on the screen without even adding it, but the app is "force closed" in the emulator. Why doesn't this work? Add one to it and then print the answer to this for a given loop (say up until 10).
Code:
package com.monkeez.count;
import android.app.Activity;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class Count extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
TextView countDisplay;
@Override public void onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState) { int counter = 1;
countDisplay = new TextView(this);
this.setContentView(countDisplay);
countDisplay.setText("counter here");
} }

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in between phones right now, and no longer have a N1 and am looking to replace it with another Android phone without switching carriers from AT&T.They currently have the HTC Aria(I have no interest in), the Samsung Captivate(Galaxy S), and will soon be getting the X10.This phone has been out for some time in EU/Asia and Canada for a bit, and I am fairly familiar with it. It seems the bad points are no multi-touch ever, Android 1.6 with a who knows for sure on Android 2.x, but the rest seems fairly solid. Most of the reviews are from when it first came out, and generally complain about the GUI being slow.My questions are basically:
1. Is the phone solid hardware wise, with build quality etc? I know it's mostly plastic, but does it feel cheap, hold up well?
2. Has Android 1.6 caused you any problems app wise? I'm fairly certain google navigation works on 1.6, which is a deal breaker for me if it doesn't.
3. How is the GUI, do you enjoy it? I can't stand Samsung's TouchWiz, Moto Blur, and prefer stock Android, but don't mind HTC Sense.
4. I keep reading something about the screen doesn't have all it's colors activated or something? Others say it is amazing. Curious if it is the Super LCD Sony is selling HTC to replace AMOLED.
I know the Galaxy S has a better CPU, GPU(Android isn't much for gaming anyways), more ram, Super AMOLED, blah, blah but their software is terrible and I don't like their form factor.

Modified the PV test app (external/opencore/codecs_v2/omx/ omx_testapp) for testing VP8. 4. included the VP8 source code to froyo. 5. Included new oscluuid for VP8 With these modifications, the build is fine. The shared libraries and binaries are creating properly. Also OMX-MasterInit is passing.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy company is in the process of evaluating if we can add support for Android to our product. I am currently working on porting our existing J2ME library to the Android framework and I have a question regarding our UI component. Right now, we have a custom menu that we allow our developers to bring up on the device. On J2ME, we simply have a single call that the developer makes to enter into the menu and then we handle the rest. On Android, it seems the best way to handle this is an Activity. But I have a few questions regarding this approach including is the really the best way to do something like this? Second, if it is, if there are multiple applications on the device that are using our library, are there going to be conflicts with them all having the same Activity embedded in them? Is it possible to create an Actvity at runtime and use it directly? Would there be any side effects of going about it this way?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am a game developer and have developed a nice global high scores module. The source code is in two different games of mine and anytime I make changes I carefully copy and paste the java files from one project to the other. As I increase the sophistication of this module, the copying and pasting can take a day or two to make sure I get it right. Now I am finishing up my third game and want to add the high scores module, but copying and pasting this in three separate projects seems absurd and will take up much of my time! Is there any way to externalize this module?
Unfortunately, the module makes reference to R for strings, layouts and other resources. It also uses common Android functions and resources from the Android library. Almost anything would be easier than the method I am using now--so any and all suggestions are welcome!
