Android: UI: horizontal divider

In this recipe we will add a thin gray line divider to our UI

       <View
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="2dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="6dp"
            android:alpha="0.5"
            android:background="@color/bar_grey_light"/>

Android: xmlns res-auto

You can use "res-auto" URI instead of defining custom packages:

so...

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:my_tag="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

instead of...

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:my_tag="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.my_company.xyz"

and then use your tag...

       <com.my_company.xyz.control.MyPanelView
                android:id="@+id/jdhfkjsd"
                style="@style/kjdlksjdhjhk"
                android:layout_width="0dp"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                my_tag:header="@string/kjsdlfkdslkfj"

Java: Random

In this example we create a random speed jump by a certain constant.

private Random random = new Random();

private static final double SPEED_M_PER_S = 2.2352;  /* 5 MPH */

private static final double MAX_RANDOM_DELTA = 0.13;

double speed = SPEED_M_PER_S 

+ Math.min(MAX_RANDOM_DELTA, random.nextDouble()) 

* (random.nextBoolean() ? -1 : 1);

Java: Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

This error basically means that you compiled your Java code with the version higher than that on the target machine you are trying to run it on.

 $ java -versionjava version "1.8.0_20-ea"

Java 1.8 == 8 == 52 (go figure why this confusion)

J2SE 8 = 52,

J2SE 7 = 51, 

J2SE 6.0 = 50, 

J2SE 5.0 = 49, 

JDK 1.4 = 48, 

JDK 1.3 = 47, 

JDK 1.2 = 46, 

JDK 1.1 = 45

Solution 1: update Java version on target machine (often impossible)

Solution 2: compile with lower Java version (skip on fancy language features e.g. lambdas) 

e.g. using Maven

   <build>
      <plugins>
         <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.2</version>
            <configuration>
               <!-- target has java version "1.7.0_60", to be safe we use 1.6  -->
               <source>1.6</source>
               <target>1.6</target>
            </configuration>
         </plugin>

e.g. using Java Compiler

javac -target 1.6 HelloWorld.java

Java Locale p4

Create FXML layout

Java: Locale p3

in this tutorial part we will EXTEND ResourceBundle.Control to make sure Java properly reads our language properties files.


Step:
create public class UTF8Control extends ResourceBundle.Control

Step:
find package java.util public abstract class ResourceBundle


Step:
find public static class Control

Step:
find public ResourceBundle newBundle(String baseName, Locale locale, String format, ClassLoader loader, boolean reload)


Step:

copy this method to your new class

Step:


CHANGE only what you see in line 76

Java: Locale p2

In this part we will create a simple utility class that will choose the right Locale

Note:

• using static method
• we are passing in character country code
• we are returning Locale
• this could grow to 180+ cases

Java: Locale p1

In this tutorial we will create JavaFX app that uses selected Locale to pull i18n (Internationalization) text.


Note:

• round buttons
• selected county name
• text in different character set
• money notation depending on selected country

Step : create a new IntelliJ Module

• Module name DisplayLocale
• create packages as shown in the picture below
• find country flags icons about 64x64x
• get some translation texts

Step: Create your translation .profile files

Example Australian English file

morning_greeting=G'day Mate!evening_greeting=G'evening Mate!

Step: Create class DisplayLocaleMain extends Application

Note:

• import java.util.*
• import javafx.*
• extends Application -- JavaFX Application
• implements Initializable -- automatic injection of Locale 
• main method
• @FXML - annotation
• @override start method
• css/buttons.css

Note: 

• @Overrite initialize method
• Currency.getInstance(bundle.getLocale());
• NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(bundle.getLocale());

Note:

• FXMLLoader fxmlLoader
• ResourceBundle.getBundle("bundles.Language", locale, new UTF8Control());
• fxmlLoader.setResources(languageBundle);
• getResource("views/TranslatedPhrasesPane.fxml");
• Pane pane = (BorderPane) fxmlLoader.load(url.openStream()); stage.getScene().getRoot()).getChildren().get(1); LanguageButtonEvent implements EventHandler
• @Override handle method
• LocaleBuilder.byLanguageCode(button.getId());
