Comment on Custom Scroll Distance for UIScrollView by hemp

.In order to make our image zoomable we need to embed it into a UIScrollView. We can use Interface Builder to instantiate the scroll View and then go back to Xcode for the rest..Open Interface Builder by double clicking on MainWindow.xib inside the Resources folder.

Comment on Android’s RTP implementation by Juden Crayford

A single question here. Is that means “there are no RTP port range for Android”? Thanks to the level of fragmentation of Android. We spent hours to understand what the problem is.

There is one thing I’m aware of: You wouldnt want to mess up with windowing for a live stream on a mobile connection that is not promised to be up continuously. If you are on a mobile network, you usually face the dropped line. “Slow start” will ruin it better than UDP loss.

Insideful again! But isnt UDP too lossy to make it the default streaming protocol? I think the SDK should include libraries to support both and it should be the application’s itself to decide on depending on performance contraints.

Comment on Setting bounds of a map to cover collection of POIs on Android by Burcu Dogan

Omer, this code has a few other bugs other than what you’ve pointed and I’ll try to come up with a new version as soon as possible. Btw, this piece is only for reference and should not be adopted to a final product as it is.

Hi, Thanks for the article. Under “Multiple-Developer Cases” you say to “distibute the signature among the developers” in order to use the same dev api key on different machines. I’m not sure how to do this. I tried coping the debug.keystore file to another machine but this did not work. Can you please provide some details?

Thanks,
Paul

Comment on Setting bounds of a map to cover collection of POIs on Android by Omer Gurarslan

Great article. But please take into consideration that latitudes in GoogleMaps vary between -180 and 180 and this may cause some problems in your code.

In an example case where there are two points with latitudes -170 and 170 respectively, the code should be able to determine the more reasonable span length, that is not 340, but 20.

I think that is closely related to why Google Maps API for Android does not provide functionality for setting bounds to a box but instead, what’s provided is to zoom to a span. This way, the option to choose a smaller span length is given to the programmer.

Comment on Twifighting: Compare tweets per hour by Omer Gurarslan

Brilliant idea, nice graphics and implementation. I wonder if you also consider enabling asynchronous updates to tweets and statistics, which, I believe, would bring more fun to it. BTW, nice blog, Congratulations!
