00:13.09 | jasta | actually i take that back, it looks sort of like ActivityGroup is well abstracted from this problem |
00:13.27 | jasta | it seems you can use the localactivitymanager to start activity's just like you would through the applicationcontext of a normal activity |
00:13.50 | jasta | i might code up a quick sample |

01:15.32 | jasta | i wonder how the localactivitymanager works with the activity stack? |
01:16.43 | jasta | i dont see how it could? |

04:18.09 | jasta | i have a question about how the concurrency of openbinder communication as implemented by Android |
04:19.10 | jasta | specifically, if i have a remotely called method with a callback, will i have a guarantee that the return will reach the caller before the callback will even if the callback is invoked before the return even happens? |
04:19.26 | jasta | i would assume that the loop would handle this as a side-effect |
04:19.39 | jasta | but iw ant to confirm so as not to design a race condition into this :) |

04:39.34 | jasta | hi muthu |
04:39.40 | muthu | hi jasta.. morning |
04:39.50 | muthu | did you check out iphone sdk? |
04:39.51 | jasta | it's 20:30 here :) |
04:40.03 | jasta | it was released afterall? i thought they had delayed it |
04:40.17 | muthu | no its been released.. early preview |
04:42.53 | muthu | there are atleast 6-7 major player for mobile O/S |
04:43.16 | jasta | why do they ask so much personal info to download the SDK? |
04:43.21 | jasta | it needs my phone number and address? |
04:43.31 | muthu | yup |
04:43.38 | muthu | i registered like twice |
04:43.56 | muthu | and gave up downloading.. |
04:43.59 | jasta | haha, Android is an option for a platform you develop on |
04:44.06 | duey | lol |
04:44.18 | muthu | yes.. the great thing about android is.. |
04:44.28 | muthu | it lets me build things where i am, how i want to |
04:44.36 | jasta | i'm pretty sure this SDK will require OS X? |
04:44.37 | duey | jasta, you have to pay for the iphone sim |
04:44.41 | duey | yeah |
04:44.51 | jasta | that's stupid, not interested |
04:44.56 | muthu | that's when i gave up downloading |
04:45.22 | muthu | microsoft & apple - they have their own way |
04:45.36 | jasta | They're both so arrogant |
04:45.39 | muthu | i hope these guys don't win on mobile |
04:45.43 | jasta | Jeez, Apple even more so if you can believe it. |
04:45.52 | muthu | yes |
04:46.38 | muthu | microsoft vs apple vs google vs nokia vs rim vs palm |
04:46.45 | muthu | anything i left out? |
04:46.49 | jasta | Palm is not a competitor, don't be ridiculous ;) |
04:47.02 | jasta | Also, Nokia is untouchable :) |
04:47.03 | muthu | they are the popular o/s on mobile |
04:47.25 | muthu | the beauty is android is taking a great stance here |
04:47.34 | jasta | No they aren't. Palm is struggling. |
04:47.39 | muthu | by focusing on the 0/s rather than device |
04:47.46 | muthu | yes agreed.. strike of palm |
04:47.57 | muthu | but palm can run android ;) |
04:48.14 | jasta | PalmOS can't, Palm devices can. Windows Mobile devices can run Android too. |
04:48.28 | muthu | true that's what i like about android |
04:48.36 | jasta | Any device with sufficient Linux support and the right chipsets will run Android. |
04:48.46 | muthu | correct |
04:49.21 | muthu | personally given a choice.. i'll take android for now |
04:49.37 | muthu | a lot more freedom on android |
04:49.57 | muthu | so for all you confused folks.. stay with android :-D |
04:50.55 | jasta | I'm writing Javadoc for my service .aidl files hehe. Wonder if there is any way to actually incorporate this documentation somewhere meaningful :) |
04:51.06 | muthu | iphone is good for android development.. it will keep the google guys innovating a lot more |
04:51.26 | muthu | put it on googlecode |
04:51.40 | jasta | No, I mean, what will scan this and generate documentation? :) |
04:51.53 | jasta | The normal javadoc path certainly won't understand this? |
04:52.20 | muthu | eclipse don't do it? |
04:52.28 | jasta | I don't know, does it? |
04:52.32 | muthu | it should |
04:52.40 | jasta | are you sure, for .aidl files? |
04:52.41 | muthu | i know openintents did that |
04:52.58 | muthu | its an interface right? |
04:53.26 | jasta | yeah, it's loosely an IDL file |
04:53.30 | jasta | but not strictly |
04:54.29 | muthu | its surprising how long it take people to find things |
04:54.41 | muthu | i had some tutorials published last year |
04:55.02 | muthu | after almost a year.. people now seem to find it and like it |
04:55.35 | muthu | so patience my friend! |
04:56.01 | jasta | Obviously, that's the whole reasons search engines are useful :) |
04:56.19 | jasta | and why you will be shot if you publish URLs on the web that are not permanent :) |
04:56.39 | muthu | correct |
04:57.00 | muthu | my point is, it take a lof of time for the world to catch up |
04:58.26 | muthu | jasta: re - URL's being permanent, thank goodness for the free storage services |
05:03.53 | muthu | jasta: if you have an idea, you can apply for iFund |

22:17.13 | romainguy | chaosvoyager: Well, the implications of applications being able to modify .apk can be scary |

22:18.57 | chaosvoyager | davidw: What did you mean by 'update it dynamically' then? |
22:19.26 | davidw | I just mean that the user, on their computer, can add stuff to the .apk as if it were a .zip file without also doing the compile step |
22:20.00 | chaosvoyager | Ah. |

23:02.16 | zhobbs | yeah, webkit doesn't seem to want to handle any filetypes |

23:06.15 | zhobbs | jasta: 3rd video about 30 secs there is a dialog "Intent availability..", can't tell if that's part of the app or standard: http://www.helloandroid.com/node/255 |
23:06.34 | davidw | how about PackageManager installPackage ? |
23:06.37 | davidw | tried that guys? |
23:06.45 | zhobbs | I did with M3, doesn't work very well |
23:06.59 | zhobbs | doesn't work at all unless you install the app into /system/app |
23:07.07 | davidw | oh... well that's useless |
23:07.24 | jasta | new packages are installed by simply placing them in /data/app. they're using inotify on that directory. |
23:08.04 | davidw | I'm curious about doing it programmatically, giving, of course, the user the chance to say yes or no |
23:08.12 | davidw | not really a necessity at this point... just curious |
23:09.52 | zhobbs | I'm planning on creating a PackageManager app after the challenge |
23:10.20 | zhobbs | one that will interface with hello android's applications section (going to have to totally rework that also) |
23:11.02 | zhobbs | or maybe someone will make a good one for the challenge and I'll just use that |
23:11.18 | jasta | i have that goal as well |
23:11.36 | jasta | perhaps we should do it jointly? |
23:11.45 | chaosvoyager | Google should have had that goal to begin with. |
23:11.49 | zhobbs | yeah, definitely |
23:12.06 | zhobbs | jasta: yeah we should collaborate |
23:12.27 | davidw | the apple store thing for iphone apps isn't a bad thing |
23:12.56 | davidw | for the end user, something like that is a lot less stressful than looking at some shoddy junky site for shoddy junky apps |
23:13.14 | zhobbs | davidw: is that on the computer or on the phone? |
23:13.53 | jasta | solves Android's security problem nicely as well. if most folks get all their apps from a single set of mirrored repositories, there is no need to consider if you trust each app. |
23:13.57 | jasta | you need only trust the repository. |
23:15.55 | chaosvoyager | Is there a simple Android GTalk example somewhere? |
23:16.05 | jasta | other than in the apidemos? |
23:17.13 | dragor43 | i think there's a gtalk program on davanum's blog |
23:17.37 | dragor43 | http://davanum.wordpress.com/2007/11/23/totally-unofficial-android-gtalk-client-sendreceive-xmpp-messages/ |
23:17.49 | dragor43 | it's for M3 so you're need to change some stuff |
23:17.53 | dragor43 | you'll* |
23:18.02 | davidw | Hecl has some gtalk stuff too:-> |
23:18.03 | chaosvoyager | Yeah, it was the first thing up on a search. |
23:18.15 | chaosvoyager | er, the blog that is. |
23:19.07 | davidw | http://journal.dedasys.com/articles/2008/02/10/seathreepo-android-translator |
23:19.24 | davidw | you could play with updating that if you feel like playing with the code:-) |
23:19.45 | zhobbs | davidw: do you have a site with the hecl stuff? |
23:20.00 | davidw | www.hecl.org - the code is all in subversion |
23:21.15 | davidw | sleep time for me...later |
23:21.27 | zhobbs | cya |
23:21.32 | chomchom | goodnight |
23:33.02 | jasta | davidw: that translator thing would be really great if you paired it with a powerful OCR tool |
23:33.14 | jasta | so you could snap a picture of something you can't read and have it translate for you |
23:41.21 | zhobbs | yeah, we need OCR for the camera |
23:42.42 | zhobbs | looks like all the ocr java libs are commercial |
23:42.56 | jasta | there's a GNU OCR tool but i do not know how good it is. |
23:43.24 | jasta | it would be easy to use in Android |
23:43.42 | jasta | zhobbs: Remember, we are not actually limited to native Java code :) |
23:43.54 | zhobbs | that's true |
23:44.00 | zhobbs | after april 14 |
23:44.36 | zhobbs | I'm tired of the emulator...I need a phone! |
23:45.06 | jasta | and then you'll just get tired of your phone |
23:45.08 | jasta | and want a real android |
23:45.28 | zhobbs | that would be nice because I'm hungry |
23:45.43 | zhobbs | it could whip something up in the kitchen |
23:46.25 | jasta | i thought you wanted to eat it |
23:46.48 | zhobbs | heh |
23:48.32 | zhobbs | looks like tesseract is a pretty good open source ocr |
23:49.07 | zhobbs | google looks like they contribute to it a lot |
23:49.33 | jasta | interesting |

23:56.26 | jasta | zhobbs: that would really be a very useful project. |
23:56.33 | jasta | especially for folks traveling around Europ |
