Comment on Android Gallery convertView is always null by Ricky Lee

Ricky Lee — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 23:29:42 +0000

The DroidUX’s GalleryFlow widget has a working solution for this issue by implementing its own caching/recycling mechanism. Using the GalleryFlow, the convertView will not be null when there’s unused/recycleable view in the cache, similar to what happens in ListView.

You can use GalleryFlow as a drop-in replacement for the stock Gallery.

Comment on Simple Twitter API XML Parsing in PHP by Madbreaks

I realize this is just an example – but for anyone who stumbles across this, I actually find that parsing Twitter data on the server is easier if you request json instead of XML (where available) and then parse with json_decode. The result is a plane-jane object and doesn’t require all the XML hoop through-jumping.

Thanks for the example.

Nice start for a class. I’m taking it and cleaning it up. If you want a copy let me know.

Note for other users…This class inherits from class Marker, so you do not need to use the CustomMarker class at all. Simply construct the HomeMarker object and add it to your Marker Manager.
