Should snackbars just appear or slide in like they usually do when they're created in

onActivityResult

?

Class not found: com.package.Class. Empty test suite.

Android Studio, why? Some of details. Trying to test Java Library module in AS which depends ob another Java Library and another library's test-scope classes. Java tests work. Why?

It depends on what you wanna test. My approach means you just need to add to run the existing uninstall gradle task in the

Before launch

for your run config.

Sorry, but I disagree, kotlin fit perfectly GL dev Oh, and btw, I am writing a glm kotlin.. would that be interesting for you? https://github.com/elect86/glm

Well known facts: - Vladimirs are from Russia - Russians are good developers - Good developers use good languages - Kotlin is a good language imply a lot of Vladimirs in Kotlin slack!

i prefer just using the https://github.com/johncarl81/parceler lib with data classes

@Parcel(Parcel.Serialization.BEAN)
data class MyClass(val value)

are there any resources on how the synthetic properties in the Kotlin Android extensions are created? These seem really powerful and it'd be cool to explore more applications of them, but I'm not really sure how they're generated off XML layouts

Well, should've seen that coming. How I understood it you'd use tags only with multiple spinners to differentiate them, but guess with just a single one they also work great. Thanks, I'll see how it works out!

@miha-x64 Oh I see what you're getting at, if you just want to use the views you can do so without the lazy, yes. But if you add them as properties to your activity, e.g. to rename them to not have snake case in your code, then you have to use lazy, as otherwise kotlinx will try to find the views while onCreate hasn't even run yet.

kotlin 1.1 is in release candodate, but I am afraid we still cant use the features which require java 8 right? since android still doesnt support java 8

yeah, but java 8 (at least runtime features like stream-api) are only supported on devices with API 23 24 and higher

do I understand it right? kotlin is compiled in byte code it is not dependent on the java features version, so in theory kotlin can implement all java 8 features and we android devs can use them?

Hi! I just published this post: https://medium.com/@orogersilva/helping-androiddev-to-mock-tests-in-kotlin-ab3be5204559#.vfyojx4fm

Hi everyone, I’m sure this question has been asked several times in here (for the life of me I couldn’t find it). I’m embarking on a quest to build an Android app for the first time and my Java knowledge is very rusty and rudimentary as over the years I got spoiled with dynamic languages–read Python and PHP–and easy to grasp languages like Swift. Is Kotlin mature enough to use for the development of an entire Android project. If that’s the case, how straight forward it is to integrate other 3rd party Android Java libraries & SDKs into the code mix? It would be great to get some advice on this as it’s a huge time investment and requires a steep learning curve. Thanks a lot.

Oh man, It makes me so sad we are stuck with that in AOSP

The Hungarian notation in Android happened because of me. I need to blog about it one to explain how it came about

Hi guys, can somebody tell me how do you unit test extension functions? Do you verify them as standard method calls or as static methods calls?

@jw @mg6maciej about yesterday’s rx espresso idling. I’ve found this gist: https://gist.github.com/aahlenst/8d3958ceceb971465873e5818ba6fd1f and then simply made

@BeforeClass

in test

@BeforeClass
public static void setUp() throws Exception {
  RxIdlingResource rxIdlingResource = new RxIdlingResource();
  Espresso.registerIdlingResources(rxIdlingResource);
  RxJavaPlugins.setScheduleHandler(rxIdlingResource);
}

So I think I just did a dumb, forgot to enable the location permission in the app settings...

is there a known issue for completion being painfully slow on Android Studio 2.3?

Why use OpenJDK for luni in the platform only to use a known-buggy compiler with it

Does Kotlin work with Android Databinding?

Not really Kotlin related, but how bad is it to make these values public? https://github.com/pan780919/Brokethenews/blob/85c657365445e181595ffab398b3b587ed482848/taiwanpetadoptionApp/build/generated/res/google-services/release/values/values.xml

while annotation processing is cool in principle the performance hit really hurts 😕

Does anyone feel like

1.1

slower/laggier in AS than

1.0.6

? Or am I just imagining things? Like typing laggy, autocomplete takes forever. If you enter bad syntax the IDE become unresponsive for several seconds.

No. It will work in next Lint version (in AS 2.4). https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/lint-dev/7nLiXa04baM/KaHIpKFoCQAJ
