[android-beginners] Re: Why does this give an error.
Yes, sure, static can only be used in classes, not inside of functions. As static denotes a class variable in contrast to an instance variable. A variable declared static exists only once for all instances of one class. So leaving the static out gives it a different meaning too. -- http://www.deepdroid.com On Apr 16, 7:21 pm, Yusuf T.

[android-beginners] Re: The sit and wait tax
Leave the emulator running, do not shut it down between test runs. That should save you a couple seconds and works just fine. On Feb 2, 9:20 am, frizzo rg...@vbrad.com wrote: I come from a background of developing desktop applications. The time between pressing Run and testing your app is very insignificant. With Android, I press Run, then it takes its sweet time to bring up the emulator, then I have to press the Menu button to unlock the phone and then 5-10 seconds later my application finally comes up. Is there a way to speed this up, by maybe cutting out a few steps? Perhaps, somehow keep the emulator in standby mode or something. I am new to Android (thus posting here) and maybe missing something massively obvious. Otherwise I am just sitting around waiting twiddling my thumbs.
