Android Made It!

It's been a while since I had a brief brush with Android and it turned out to be great mobile platform. Way back then, only a handful of mobile device that runs Android. Now it already got a fair share of market and consumer base.

I'm back to exploring the new Android API, now mainly with the creation of a custom Facebook client that I am using.

Not much so far, but I am getting there.

Undroid - Android Plugin for Netbeans

2008-03-04T12:03:00.002+08:00

There is an available Android Plugin for Netbeans provided at http://undroid.nolimit.cz/. Like the Android plugin for Eclipse, you can develop Android application in Netbeans and test it using the Android Emulator included in Android Developer Toolkit. I am not a big fan of Netbeans but I gave it a try. It seems that the current version does not support the latest release (m5) of Android SDK. I have not searched further though. Here's a screenshot provided at the Undroid website:

Happy Coding!

Welcome to my Android Experience blog. There is not much here right now as I have just taken my first step into the curves of the Android Platform. I am hoping to learn as much as I can in developing some applications on this platform.

Currently, I have downloaded Eclipse IDE and successfully configured the ADT Plugin. Wohooo! But I am still having some trouble running my first application: the sample discussed by Dan Morill on YouTube.

The code won't compile and it is complaining on the line:

i.setData(Phones.CONTENT_URI.addId(phoneId));

It seems that addId method is no longer supported? I am still looking for the solution.
