Comment on Android ListView with fast scroll and section index by Dustin

Nice, thanks! It worked for me with an ArrayAdapter, but not until I implemented the “SectionIndexer”. Much appreciated post!

I had the same problem as Chen with the checkLicense() showing as an error.

I changed the public class line to
public class AppName extends LicenseCheckActivity implements OnClickListener

When I created the class in eclipse it put it into the wrong folder to start with – it created ‘default.com’ in the src folder. After I moved it in the main app src folder it worked as expected.

As a developer, I appreciate this post, even though I did it a bit differently. My question is what happens when EXISTING users go in with the new licensing code? Is the app going to “bomb” with a NOT_LICENSED result? Or will it “sense” that the app has been purchased and let it go through?

Hi,
thank you very much, i managed to solve the problem.
all i have to do is change the line:
public class X extends LicenseCheckActivity /*Activity*/ implements OnClickListener, Runnable {
your license check code working perfect without any change.

now i’m working to save license check status, i don’t want to run the check every time the user open the application.
i know the right way doing it, is preferences.
but i don’t know how to write preferences from inside LicenseCheckActivity class.

Thanks
Chen

@Chen what is the error message you are getting?

You can check once the first time they open the application and save the success result in the SharedPreferences. This way they only need to have network access the first time they open the app

Hi,
thanks for your help, this guide is very helpful.
i need your help in order to finish the job in my application.

I’m getting error with checkLicense(), right after the content view in onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState).

Java is new for me, so i don’t know how to solve it, i’m guessing its very simple.

last question, after the user download my application from Android Market, he need network access in order to check the license every time he start the application ?

Ones again, thank you very much for your help.

Best Regards
Chen
