hello tinoper!

how can I help you today?

helo Mark

Hello*

Congratulations for commonsware

um, thanks!

but, congratulations for what?

I'm a new suscriber and newbie with android developping too

For this kind of suscription that involves book+stakoverflow+chat,etc

hopefully, you will find it useful

sure

the office hours chats are for your Android development questions

usually, there's a couple of people in the chat, though today looks like it may be a slow day

so, do you have any questions?

Maybe my question will be knid of rookie but anyways.For example,I was added ShareActionProvider to my actionbar and it works very fine

but not completely for Facebook

I realized that only including facebook sdk to my app I can send text to share,isn't?

I am not a Facebook user, so I have not tried using ShareActionProvider, or ACTION_SEND directly, with it

based on some Stack Overflow questions, it does seem like Facebook and ACTION_SEND have... issues :-)

(BTW, hello, Susheel -- I will be with you in a moment!)

tinoper: I also have not tried using the Facebook SDK

so I do not know what the best way is to "share" stuff with the Facebook app

Interesting. I can share a URL to facebook with ShareActionProvider but not text.It seems like policy facebook issue.

Ok,I understand

that's interesting -- I would have guessed the reverse

Hey Mark.

but, sorry, I cannot really help you with that question

let me take a question from Susheel, and I will be back with you in a bit

Susheel: your turn! do you have a question?

Of course

hi Susheel

Susheel: if you come up with a question, let me know

tinoper: while we wait for Susheel, do you have another question?

OK, if either of you come up with a question, chime in

As I say before ,I'm rookie level and I'm building my own tools in order to develop comercial android app.

What libraries do you recommend to take a look?

um, well, there are hundreds of libraries available for Android

I mean ,I saw Volley library,etc

the biggest collection of libraries that I know of is the Android Arsenal: http://android-arsenal.com/

I have only used a handful of these

the only thing, from a library standpoint, that I generally recommend across the board to all developers is to use an event bus

greenrobot's EventBus is my personal preference, though Square's Otto or the LocalBroadcastManager from the Android Support package are also popular

for example,I have an app that manager CRUD from a MySQL db in my own web server with REST PHP

Ok,I'll take a look a greenrobot's EventBus

I cover it in the book, and the updated tutorials use it

ok,homework to do so.

BTW, Susheel, if you have a question, feel free to ask

Well,have a nice day and thanks fo your time

you are very welcome

the transcript for the chat will be posted to http://commonsware.com/office-hours/ shortly after the chat ends

the next office hours chat is Tuesday at 7:30pm US Eastern Time

have a pleasant day!
