[Fixed] CSS loading issue after fixing ExecJS::ProgramError in page

December 10, 2015 No comments Article

I have manage to fix my ExecJS::ProgramError as mentioned in my last post.

The error got disappeared as soon as I change the “application” to “default”. But the issue I faced now is, my app is unable to locate and load the CSS and JS. None of the styles got loaded.

I tried to inspect the issue. Looked into the source rendered in the browser by choosing the “view source” option.

From the source it looks like the app is trying to locate the default.css and default.js, which is not present.

Fix I followed

A Factory Design Pattern Example

October 12, 2015 1 comment Article

What is a Factory Design Pattern ?

This is a creational design pattern. It encapsulate the object creation logic from the user by creating a logical separation between the object creation and use.

How we will do it ?

We will gather and create a family of classes having almost similar features. Then we will create a factory class to create and return the desired objects.

Let me do it…

We will consider creating documents in this example.

As a first step let us create an interface and call it as iDocument


namespace DocumentFactory
{
    public interface iDocument
    {
        string CreateDocument(string documentName, string path);
        string ReadDocument(string documentName, string path);
        bool Saved();
    }
}

namespace DocumentFactory

{

public interface iDocument

{

string CreateDocument(string documentName, string path);

string ReadDocument(string documentName, string path);

bool Saved();

}

We will create classes for separate documents and inherit them from iDocument

Displaying an informational alert on screen

Let’s just display a quick informative popup, which will only display an alert on screen with a title and a message in it. It actually gets closed when the back button get touched.


AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
alert.SetMessage("This is just an alert to show on the screen in order to try my alert demo.");
alert.SetTitle("Alert Clicked");
alert.Show();

What do you want ?

I just wanted to add a date along with the each place of earthquake that is in the list in my previous blog.

Customize the Adapter to contain the custom data
Use the custom Adapter instead of the default Adapter
