商品描述

Android continues to be one of the leading mobile OS and development platforms driving today's mobile innovations and the apps ecosystem. Android appears complex, but offers a variety of organized development kits to those coming into Android with differing programming language skill sets.

Android Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach, Second Edition guides you step-by-step through a wide range of useful topics using complete and real-world working code examples.  It's updated to include latest Jelly Bean Android SDK as well as earlier releases. 

In this expanded edition,

  • You'll start off with a recap of Android architecture and app fundamentals, and then get down to business and build an app with Android SDK 4.1 version or earlier release at the command line and Eclipse.
  • Next, you'll learn how to accomplish practical tasks pertaining to the user interface, communications with the cloud, device hardware, data persistence, communications between applications, and interacting with Android itself.
  • Finally, you'll learn how to leverage various libraries and Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A) to help you perform tasks more quickly, how to use the Android NDK to boost app performance, and how to design apps for performance, responsiveness, seamlessness, and more.
Instead of abstract descriptions of complex concepts, in Android Recipes, you'll find live code examples. When you start a new project, you can consider copying and pasting the code and configuration files from this book, then modifying them for your own customization needs. This can save you a great deal of work over creating a project from scratch!

What you’ll learn

  • Discover Android architecture and various Android-specific APIs
  • How to develop a unit conversion app in the context of command-line/Android SDK and Eclipse/Android SDK environments
  • How to accomplish various tasks related to the user interface and more
  • How to use external libraries to save time and effort
  • How to quickly develop an app using the Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A) tool
  • How to boost app performance by using the Android NDK
  • Guidelines for designing filtered apps, performant apps, responsive apps, and seamless apps

Who this book is for

This book is a handy reference for all Android app developers.  Newcomers may also find this of interest, too.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

Android仍然是領先的移動操作系統和開發平台之一,推動著當今的移動創新和應用生態系統。Android看似複雜,但提供了各種有組織的開發工具包,適用於具有不同程式語言技能的開發者。

《Android Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach, Second Edition》通過完整且真實的工作代碼示例,逐步引導您探索各種有用的主題。該書已更新至最新的Jelly Bean Android SDK以及之前的版本。

在這本擴展版中,

- 首先,您將回顧Android架構和應用基礎知識,然後使用命令行和Eclipse在Android SDK 4.1版本或之前的版本上構建應用程式。
- 接下來,您將學習如何完成與用戶界面、與雲端的通信、設備硬體、數據持久化、應用程式間通信以及與Android本身的交互等實際任務。
- 最後,您將學習如何利用各種庫和Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A)來更快地執行任務,如何使用Android NDK提升應用程式性能,以及如何設計具有性能、響應性、無縫性等特點的應用程式。

《Android Recipes》不僅提供抽象的複雜概念描述,還提供實際的代碼示例。當您開始一個新項目時,可以考慮從本書中複製和粘貼代碼和配置文件,然後根據自己的定制需求進行修改。這樣可以節省大量的工作,而不必從頭開始創建項目!

《Android Recipes》將教您:

- 了解Android架構和各種Android特定的API
