[android-developers] Re: Test Location Providers in 1.0
The test-location-provider-thing was unnecessary form the start. You have to do just one thing: implement a service that continiously updates you current location. Thats all.

[android-developers] ContentHandler.startElement(..) and ContentHandler.endElement(..) won't be called in 1.0 rc1
Following scenario: SAXParser saxParser = saxParserFactory.newSAXParser(); XMLReader xmlReader = saxParser.getXMLReader(); xmlReader.setContentHandler(handler); xmlReader.parse(someImputStream); where handler implements ContentHandler. xmlReader.parse(..) calls handler.characters(..) but neither handler.startElement(..) nor handler.endElement(..). This worked well in 0.9. Can this regression be reproduced by anybody? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Mock Location Provider [SOLVED+IMPROVED]
Hi Justin, the interesting enhancement wasn't the journey, but it was the interpolation of route-points. One may now make a road of 2 points and the mock-provider can make a route of arbitrary many points out of these two. So if one has a straight route between 2 cities, the provider creates a "smooth" route between the cities.
