Setup

Software Requirements

The code was developed using the Eclipse IDE which is freely available from http://www.eclipse.org. In addition to eclipse, the Android SDK and Android developer's toolkit (ADT) will also need to be installed. See http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html for instructions on installing the Android SDK and the ADT.

Setup

Once the afore mentioned software packages have been installed, the source tree can be imported into Eclipse. The provided directories contain the necessary Eclipse project files. The projects associated with the code can be imported into Eclipse by selecting "Import..." from the Eclipse "File" menu. From the "Import" dialog, select "Existing Projects into Workspace" under the "General" folder and click "Next". From the next screen, click the "Browse" button and select the unzipped folder as the root directory. Once the unzipped folder has been selected, the "Projects" portion of the dialog should list the following projects that are available for import:

  • GastApp (/app)
  • GastAppTest (/appTest)
  • GastLibraryLuceneExt (/libraryLuceneExt)
  • GastLibrary (/library)
  • jjil (/jjil)
  • JJIL-Android (/JJIL-Android)
  • TemperatureSensor (/openaccessory)

It is recommended to import all of the projects as this should create a workspace that has the ability to run the examples with very little "tweaking."

Note: The directory names located on the filesystem DO NOT match the names of the projects. The filesystem directory names are located in the above list in parentheses where root ("/") is the main directory.

Projects

The following is a summary of the eclipse projects that can be imported from the previous section, as well as which chapters in the book reference the code:

  • GastApp - Contains the book's demonstration app called Android Sensing Playground. It produces the APK that can be installed and run on an Android device. It has code from all chapters.

  • GastAppTest - Contains unit tests for GastApp and GastLibrary. It has code from chapter 17.

  • GastLibraryLuceneExt - Contains a Lucene related code for speech recognition. It has code from chapter 17.

  • GastLibrary - Contains reusable code that supports the code from GastApp. It has minimal dependencies so you can include only this project in your app. It has code for various chapters in the book.

  • jjil - A clone of Jon's Java Imaging Library http://code.google.com/p/jjil/ with some updates for this book.

  • JJIL-Android - Another project from http://code.google.com/p/jjil/ with some updates for this book.

  • openaccessory - Contains the code for Android Open Accessory (AOA).

Package Structure

The packages in GastApp are organized by sensor type and two categories:

  • root.gast.playground. are from GastApp
  • root.gast. are packages from other projects.

When you are looking for code for a particular chapter of Professional Android Sensor Programming or sensor look for the package with the appropriate sensor type.

  • Part 1: root.gast.playground.location

  • Part 2: root.gast.playground.sensor

  • Chapter 10: com.example.temperaturesensor (in the openaccessory folder)

  • Chapter 11: root.gast.playground.nfc

  • Chapter 12,13: root.gast.playground.image

  • Chapter 14: root.gast.playground.audio

  • Part 4: root.gast.playground.speech
