Hello crayder,

May be you are cheating? I think you are not a student - you are a teacher! ))))))
Thank you for very good explanation! |
I am a student @ 3rd semester
But I like the teaching/tutorial stuff...
[Edit]
I started writing a book about learning android.(Just the introduction yet ^^, because of my exams) Probably will be open/free and downloadable as pdf, already while I'm writing it.

Best Regards,

By the way... Are you planning (or may be I missed such examples here) to write smth about service organizing? I mean operations that require time (network interaction) and as a result special architecture. It would be interesting to learn...
P.S. How are your exams? ))

Hello crayder,
paller wrote 3(?) articles about Services. You'll find them under "Advanced Tutorials".
Exams were fine up to now, A+ with 2 of 4 already

|
|
Hi,
I've adapted the source a bit for m5, but my friends don't show up on the map. I get a real-time view of myself driving around San Fran and a distance between my friends and I, but they dont show up on the map view.
Any idea why?
-Blake

|
|
the M5 emulator does nto have "Notes" field in it. So i could not use the People.Notes to get the location information for the person. Can you tell me a workaround for this problem?
I created a custom Notes field in the Contacts based on previous post, but I am not getting how to use the Notes field that i created or any other custom field to get the location information.
Thanks in advance

Providing the actual error would push the solving-process further.
Are you talking of caching the map-tiles
The MapView currently does not do that (only during the lifetime of the particular MapView, but not when it is destroyed once).

Hello zsimplicityz,
I just checked it, the AndroidManifest.xml is included in the project. Maybe try importing the project instead of creating a new one with existing resources.
The last option is to create a clean project and copy all the source-files by hand
