Cleaned OverlayMediator. Moved strings to /res/values/strings.xml Solved the bug with disappearing OverlayItems. The actual reason was the caching of OverlayMediator object. The instance variable “activity” was the old one, and the getOverlays from the activity’s lusitesMap were old. So it couldn’t work. The solution is to force OverlayMediator to renew its instance variable LUSitesActivity activity each time the static method getInstance is called: public static OverlayMediator getInstance(Context context) { if (singleton == null) { singleton = new OverlayMediator(); } singleton.

OverlayController is actually more Mediator. It keeps track of current OverlayItem and triggers toggling of marker highlighting. In order to provide clear code the name has been changed to OverlayMediator. The singleton variable now is called singleton. And static method getOverlayController is now getInstance().

This version improves User Interface. After search you probably don’t want to see the keyboard which takes half a display. So now it is hiding after search. To do this I used a code provided androidguys: InputMethodManager mgr = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); mgr.hideSoftInputFromWindow(findField.getWindowToken(), 0); This version is not published at Market. Commit details on Github.

Highlighted Marker doesn’t appear after restart « A Chuvash Guy @ Android - Jan 4, 2011 […] bug is solved in the version 0.1.5 and released as update in the Android […] Actually the bug was solved completely in version 0.1.8

The bug where the highlighting of current item didn’t work is now solved. In this version the LUSiteOverlayItem has been implemented. toggleHighlight(), @override Drawable getMarker() have been added. This version is published to the Market.

In this version the code has been refactored. The new subclass of OverlayItem was added: LUSiteOverlayItem. It has not been published to Android Market.

For some reason when you restarted the LUSites, the red arrow didn’t appear as it should be. The bug is solved in the version 0.1.5 and released as update in the Android Market. The technical explanation: Before the marker was sent to the LUSiteOverlay as parameter. Now all the markers are controlled by the LUSiteOverlayItem which is a subclass. The LUSiteOverlayItem has defaultMarker and highlightedMarker as instance variables and toggles them.

I got a comment on android market: by Johan (November 7, 2010) Skulle vara bra om man såg vad som hände på de olika nationerna, likt lth-appen till iphone. Would be great to do it. I am saving it as a wish

Tänk om du vill återgå till en tidigare version. Vill strunta i de sista ändringarna, eller lägga dem på is så länge. Att uppdatera till en tidigare version hjälper inte så mycket eftersom det kommer inte gå att commita vidare ändringar. För att det ska funka måste man reverta till en specifik version, commita direkt, göra ändringar och commita igen. Högercklicka på filen i Visual Studio -> Subversion -> Show history -> Högerklicka på en revision som du vill återskapa -> Revert to this revision.

Om man vill testa någonting, så är det bra att isolera det till en branch. En branch kan inte skapas för en fil. Det måste vara en mapp. Hitta den minimala mappen, så att man inte branchar hela projektet. Högerklicka -> Subversion -> Branch. Sedan måste man byta till sin branch. Högerklicka på samma mapp -> Subversion -> Switch. Välj din mapp i branches. Det gör ingenting om mappen inte heter samma.
