    What are your favourite shortcuts or features in Android Studio?

    Posted: 11 Oct 2021 04:07 AM PDT

    Let's have a knowledge-sharing post for this Monday where we can collect some tips & tricks around Android Studio - given that most of us use it all day long. Whether it's a useful shortcut, a setting, a plugin, feel free to share something that you use a lot in your day-to-day work to increase your productivity!

    Let me start this off with two shortcuts:

    • Parameter Info (when calling a function) with Ctrl + P / ⌘P
    • Type Info (on any expression) with Ctrl + Shift + P / ⌃⇧P

    PS. My ulterior motive is that I'll be giving a talk on this topic at Droidcon Berlin, so I'm still looking for additional things to include in that!

    Should each UI module have its own domain/data layers?

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 08:03 PM PDT

    1. One common way of doing modules is like this

    UI module 1 (depend on domain)

    UI module 2

    UI module n

    Domain module (depend on nobody)

    Data module (depend on domain)

    The problem is that any change inside domain module would causes all UI modules and data module to rebuild.

    1. What if I create a common domain module all UI modules share. But create domain layer code specific to each UI module in that UI module? Or even create separate domain module for each UI module. For data module, I would do the same as domain module.

    UI module 1 (depend on domain module 1)

    Domain module 1 (depend on nobody)

    Data module 1 (depend on domain module 1)

    UI module 2

    Domain module 2

    Data module 2

    UI module n

    Domain module n

    Data module n

    Is Jetpack Compose actually stable if it is still missing important functionalities? Is XML actually more reliable when using features such as navigation animation?

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 12:24 PM PDT

    Some important features like navigation animation are not official in jetpack compose, although they can be achieved through libraries such as Google Accompanist.

    If it is still missing such features, shouldn't it still be in a beta version? Is XML still more reliable?

    Is it fine to assume all Android devices in this world are using "\n" as line separator character?

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 11:48 PM PDT

    I know that Android is built on Linux kernel and Linux is using "\n" as line separator character.

    Is it Ok to assume

    System.getProperty("line.separator") == "\n" 

    hold true for all all Android devices in this world?

    Will there ever be any edge case where "\n" is not used as line separator character in some rare Android device?

    Reason I am asking so because our one sharable data need to be shared across many Android devices. I need to ensure data, which uses "\n" as its line separator character, can be recognized by all Android devices.

    Thanks.

    How do I make a new google play console developer account?

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 03:24 PM PDT

    Hiya so a few months ago google decided to terminate all google play console developer accounts that have been inactive for a while. Mine was one of em but I have been working on a project for some time now and I'd like to work on it again. Unfortunately in the google play console itself it says that my account has been closed and there is no way to open it again, also the money I spent to open the account in the first place is non-refundable.

    I've been trying to find a way to open a different account at least and pay that amount again, however when I try to find how to open a new developer google console account I end up either in 403 pages or I just get stuck. My old account is still there taking up empty space since I can't use it even though google said that it will be deleted shortly (that was in July). I haven't been able to find where I can create a new developer account with the same email?? I understand that I could probably create a new e-mail and associate it with a new developer account but I just want to keep my e-mail. Has anyone been in the same situation or does anyone know of a workaround?

    To be a bit more detailed the e-mail they sent me sends me here in case I want to create a new developer account with the first step being to Sign up for a developer account which leads to a 403 page...

    TL;DR I am stuck trying to create a new google play console developer account after my first one was terminated due to inactivity and google isn't really helping.

    Suggestions on developing a Health Application

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 08:41 PM PDT

    Hey, I thought of developing a Health-tracking application for my final project. I'm just extracting related suggestions and opinions. I'm planning to focus on around 5 common functions and 1 complex function. I'd really appreciate if you could spare some time to discuss thoughts like; - What common features you expect in a health app - What complex/unique feature you'd want - How you'd expect the coding architecture to be

    Apps Removed Due to Lack of IARC content rating - Penalty Against Account?

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 10:26 AM PDT

    I had three apps on the play store back in 2014. They were removed in 2018. I paid absolutely no attention to them during this time. Over three years later, I'm finding out why they were removed:

    Hi Developers at XX,

    Your app, com.myapp, has been removed from Google Play for violating the Content Rating Guidelines. Apps without an IARC content rating are not permitted on Google Play.

    My only concern is: does this count as a penalty, or "strike", against my Google Play Account?

    I'm releasing a closed alpha app on the play store for a college-related project and don't want any trouble with Google due to this.

    Thanks

    Note: I'm not venting, nor complaining, about the removal. I only want to know if this counts against my account.

    Static context in a failsafe situation?

    Posted: 10 Oct 2021 10:26 AM PDT

    Yes, static context is a memory leak. But what if you used a static context purely as a failsafe, never intended to actually be used? It's only assigned once, thus no leak.

    For...well, context, here's what I'm talking about specifically:

    private static Context failsafeContext = null; public static DatabaseObj getInstance() { if (databaseObj != null) { return databaseObj; } else { setInstance(failsafeContext); return databaseObj; } } public static DatabaseObj setInstance(Context context) { if (databaseObj == null) { synchronized (DatabaseObj.class) { if (databaseObj == null) { failsafeContext = context; databaseObj = Room.databaseBuilder(context.getApplicationContext(), DatabaseObj.class, DATABASE_NAME).allowMainThreadQueries().fallbackToDestructiveMigration().build(); } } } return databaseObj; } 

    failsafeContext would only be accessed in case of catastrophic failure upon a getInstance() call. It's probably unnecessary, since if an app is in that bad of a state recovery is generally unlikely, but technically speaking it shouldn't hurt, right?
