Creating 3rd party library in Android. Need suggestions!!
- by Lalith
Hello all,
I am planning to create a 3rd party library for android
application developers. Also the main concern is I do not want the
users to make many changes to their code base. The following are the
main things I want to clarify before diving into the project.
1) I want to attach my own event handlers dynamically to the
application. As per above limitations I mentioned, I cannot make
users put the relevant code in their handlers as I need to support
existing applications as well. I found out that we cannot attach more
than one event handler per one listener. For example
Button.setOnclickListener(somelistener) .. will set one listener. In
traditional desktop applications we can add more than one handlers but
here if I do one more Button.setOnclickListener(someOtherListener)
this one overwrites the previous listener. Is there any way I can
attach my own listener along with application's existing listeners
dynamically? Also is it really not supported on android yet?
2) Is there any 3rd party alternative that exists already that
monitors user's interactions in androidi?
3) If this is not supported now are there any future plans to support
this feature?
Please let me know about this as I did not get much feedback on
Stackoverflow. Any suggestions and workarounds would really help me
continue with this project.
Regards,
Lalith
