| A problem with every MVP+Dagger implementation Posted: 21 May 2016 10:27 AM PDT I know it probably will be hard to understand for many but I don't have time to create a sample app just now. I've reviewing all popular implementations of MVP+Dagger combo recently. I've checked google android blueprints, karumi's rosie and couple of others. It seems that there is a small problem with almost every one of them. Basically MVP says that View<->Presenter communication should be done using interfaces. So in Android case Activity/Fragment/ViewGroup implements View interface and keeps reference to the presenter interface (this is important). On the other side a class which implements Presenter interface also keeps a reference to the view interface. Almost every (except google samples) implementation violates this and keeps a concrete presenter implementation in the view. https://github.com/Karumi/Rosie/blob/master/sample/src/main/java/com/karumi/rosie/sample/characters/view/fragment/CharactersFragment.java#L54 here is an example of this in Karumi's sample. In a majority of the implementations a presenter is injected to a view and a view is passed to it by calling a method on a presenter. android blueprints does the opposite - in injects a view to the presenter and sets the presenter on the view by calling it's method. https://github.com/googlesamples/android-architecture/blob/todo-mvp-dagger/todoapp/app/src/main/java/com/example/android/architecture/blueprints/todoapp/taskdetail/TaskDetailPresenter.java#L69 None of these methods is ideal. I think that it's because in Dagger if you want to put an object to a graph you can do it in Module by writing provider method or you can use @Inject on object's constructor. The second option is simpler (less boilerplate) and used in many sample apps but there is a limitation. If a class which has @Inject on it's constructor implements some interface then Dagger doesn't care and it can inject only this exact class on which constructor's @Injects is. So basically if someone want's to inject a presenter to a view (for example Activity) and store an interface type of this presenter in Activity then a Module and provides method must be used. This leads to writing a lot of boilerplate code. Also if you want to inject some objects to the presenter then you have to do it by constructor params... Which is not the case if you use @Inject on presenter's constructor. I would like to hear your experiences, opinions etc. Maybe there is something I don't know/understand about Dagger or something.

| Need help/feedback on creating a project based resume Posted: 21 May 2016 05:03 PM PDT I'm about to graduate soon and start the job hunt. Right now I am creating a resume that will be showing off the projects I've created, since I don't have any relevant professional experience yet. I would really appreciate some help or feedback. I'm having a hard time coming up with bullet points to describe my projects that will be enticing to recruiters and interviewers. I read an article that mentioned that the bullet points should sound good to people at all levels of technical experience, which seems quite difficult. Here is how I wanted to list one of my projects on my resume:
According to what I've read, I know I should start each sentence with a verb. Each bullet point should quantify something, but I'm not sure what I could quantify for most of my apps since they are just personal apps, not for a company or client. Is there anything else I should be looking out for that I could work on? I'd really appreciate any feedback, and an example resume would be really helpful as well. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 21 May 2016 09:39 PM PDT Hello r/androiddev. I have been developing android apps natively for over a year now, however, I want to start iOS development as well. I was wondering to start learning qt, and for practice want to implement it in android. Does anyone here know how android apps developed in qt actually is, for both the dev and consumer side? Thanks ahead! [link] [comments]  |

| What are the websites, forums, Reddit threads which allow Android app promo code distribution?

| How do people make Apps of all sort? Posted: 21 May 2016 11:22 AM PDT I'm an amateur Android developer and I can build simple things like an E-Commerce app, an app for a business, a calculator or some data driven apps. I look for work on UpWork occasionally and I mostly fail because people look for things like "Kernel Injection on mobile", "FFMpeg expert", "keyboard app", "video players", "Xposed developer" etc. I get that there are APIs and frameworks available for most of the things but a developer still needs to know the way around. How do they do it? I'm pretty sure things above needs a lot of low level knowledge. What do I need to learn so that I can build complex apps without following a tutorial on the internet or looking at stackoverflow for hints? I've been developing Android apps for a year now but subjects above still makes me scratch my head. My questions may sound senseless but I'm confused af. [link] [comments]  |

| Question about developer terms Posted: 21 May 2016 02:45 AM PDT Google has this on the developer console: "Please provide a current, valid postal address where you may be contacted. If you offer apps or in-app items for sale, you are required to provide a postal address under our developer terms and consumer protection laws; failure to do so may result in the suspension of your account and/or sales of your apps. Please ensure that you keep these details up to date if they change. By providing your email or postal address information, you confirm that you consent to Google publicly displaying or disclosing that information in connection with your apps." Does this mean Google can publicly display my postal address? [link] [comments]  |
