Yes, I would also highly recommend the use of either a shared Java
library, or SVN (in which case you should read up on merging two
source trees, as that's exactly for that purpose). In my experiences,
the use of symlinks can get rather messy, but is of course quite
possible, both on Linux, Mac, and Windows (Win2K and higher), it just
requires that you know what you're doing.

 Not yet. You can get around by extracting as much application logic as
 possible in a java lib, but you still need basically two projects for

 If you're using Linux or a source control system like SVN you can
 share or symlink your res dir however. It's far from ideal though.

 I have seen no evidence that HTC makes firmware upgrades available

 you got your device from your carrier, I would expect the carrier will
 say when and how to upgrade it, assuming they support such an upgrade.

Erm.. Normally you definitely know what you're talking about, but in
this case, I'll have to say you really don't. Sorry. :)

HTC released an update to the Hero firmware less than a week ago. It's
not the 1.6 release, obviously, but it -does- goes to show that they -
do- make upgrades, instead of relying on the carriers to do that.
Proof would be here..

Europe: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=671news_id=254
Nordic: http://www.htc.com/dk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=671news_id=254

From what I can see there's no such upgrade for the Hero in the US...
I dunno, maybe the carriers have made different rules for their
phones? After all, they -did- give the HTC Hero a silly name. ;)

Btw, love your books! ^^

[android-beginners] Re: Okay.... I give up

2009-09-09 Thread AngelOD

While it -is- true that you need to create the AVD, NetBeans has
absolutely no issues with launching the emulator when you click Run.
It will either ask you to choose a specific AVD, or you can use the
settings to make it choose a specific one, or to let it pick one
itself.

I tried Eclipse for Android development, even though NetBeans is my
preferred IDE, but I couldn't get it to work properly. It wouldn't
install at first, and when it finally did, it wouldn't compile
properly, and it didn't do at all what I asked it to, so eventually I
got tired of it, and decided to give NBAndroid another try. I had
tried it previously, but it didn't work with Android SDK 1.5, hence
why I tried out Eclipse. But those things were fixed, and I have no
problems with Android on NetBeans now.

One thing you need to be aware of, however, is that you cannot get
stacktraces in NetBeans output (not that I've seen anyway), but that's
no problem. You just need to launch the ddms tool, and make your
application force close again, and you'll see the stacktrace just
fine. :) Also, make sure not to close the emulator when you're done
testing, but leave it open, since starting up the emulator takes quite
a while, whereas it works just fine to leave it open.

I hope it helps.

 You're only missing the part about creating an 
 AVD:http://d.android.com/guide/developing/tools/avd.html

 btw, you can only launch the emulator manually from the command line
 (because you need to give the avd name).
