Annotation processors and multi-module projects in Android Studio Posted: 06 Sep 2016 07:57 PM PDT Hello, I've been writing an annotation processor for dependency injection which works well when used in the application module. However, it does not seem to work properly when library modules are involved. Ideally, when running the annotation processor on an application module, it would also consume the annotations from any library modules (e.g. a common application resources module, data/domain module etc.) in one pass. From my search, I have found one unanswered stackoverflow question about it. Also, I came across the clean architecture sample app which seems to do what I am after with the Dagger 2 annotation processor. Looking through the gradle files the Dagger 2 annotation processor is only applied in the presentation module, but it will still process the @Inject annotations in the data and domain modules. I tried adding a very simple annotation processor to this project that simply prints to the gradle console every @Inject annotation that it finds, yet it won't find the ones in the other modules unlike the dagger2 annotation processor. So TL;DR, what sort of configuration is needed to support custom annotation processing in a project where the annotations are in separate modules? Is this something that is set up in gradle somehow, or something in the annotation processor that allows it to consume all annotations in not only the module in which it is ran, but also in all modules that are dependencies?

Building an AutoCompleteTextView that only accepts some inputs Posted: 06 Sep 2016 11:32 PM PDT |
Looking to keep a log of connections and discovery requests Posted: 06 Sep 2016 11:14 PM PDT I am curious about the amount of handshakes and discovery requests my phone makes during a day, and I don't know what I should look into. Just riding my bike or the train, I know that my android device is scanning for networks and devices and also veins scanned and pinged. I want to log and see this information, but I believe it goes a bit deeper than the volley library. Any pointers? [link] [comments] |
What technology stack is used to create a mobile app? Posted: 06 Sep 2016 10:46 PM PDT Hey guys. I'm trying to get into Android app development. I am stuck and don't know where to start. I have an idea that I want to build but don't know the technology stack involved with developing an android app. My idea involves giving user an image feed based on the their proximity. For example, if user A uploaded an image right outside the White House and user B goes near that location, ~1 mile radius or so, they should be able to receive a feed of images that were submitted near that location when they open up the same app. Since I am new to mobile development, I would appreciate it if someone could explain every technology that would have to be integrated for this app to be implemented. I heard Firebase is a good option for storing the images and for geolocation, but I'm not sure if there are any other technologies that I'm missing. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 06 Sep 2016 06:54 PM PDT I checked many translation API's including Bing (microsoft), Google SDL, and Yandex. any idea where I can get a free one? I am aware these are cheap and some offer free up to 2m characters. but I want something that is cheaper or free for billions of characters. [link] [comments] |
Useful link since Wedding Party app blog no longer available due to closure Posted: 06 Sep 2016 07:11 AM PDT Since their closure, several of my bookmarks to their articles are now useless but can be found on Kaushik Gopal's blog, who was the author of the Android articles there. So here's a link to his blog which has several useful articles, a notable one being RxBus. [link] [comments] |
Finding a fix for connected Android devices going 'offline' after a few hours? Posted: 06 Sep 2016 02:53 PM PDT Hi r/AndroidDev, I've been playing around in ADB over the past few weeks, and I'm having the same reoccurring issue of my devices going offline after a few hours of running an executable .bat file though ADB. I have ~5 phones connected to a 25-port USB hub, which is connected to a laptop (running Windows 7) that I use solely for this purpose. I've changed the power settings on the laptop so it doesn't sleep/turn off due to inactivity, including disabling the 'usb' power saving option. My program shoots off commands at these 5 phones, cycling through and repeating every 30 minutes or so. It will run beautifully for a few hours, but I'll check on it 6-8 hours later and all of the devices will be seen as offline by ADB and I'll have to switch over to another USB port or try the "adb kill-sever" then "adb start-server" command, which works occasionally. This isn't the fix I'm looking for. I'd prefer something that will allow this program to run perpetually and I'd love if you guys had any advice or possible critiques to make this work. Thanks so much, r/AndroidDev! [link] [comments] |

What are the things that every android developer wannabe should know? Posted: 06 Sep 2016 01:38 PM PDT I'm a senior year CS student who wants to work as an Android developer after graduation, I can develop decent apps but what should I do more, learning some backend or contributing to open source projects maybe?

UI specific questions: Can these things be done? Posted: 06 Sep 2016 08:40 AM PDT I am designer and try to follow the Google Material Design guidelines. However my developer tells me some of the things I specify in my designs are impossible despite being recommended by the guidelines. Do you agree?
I have a few more but I will leave it at that. The baseline grid is the most fundamental to me. I have found this video of a Google Developer mentioning specific commands to make sure custom fonts align to a baseline grid at 13:18. Has anyone tried this? [link] [comments] |
