Tutorial: Android Application Development - Application Object

Class 3, Part 1. This video comes from Marakana's 5-Day Android Bootcamp Training Course which Marko Gargenta taught in San Jose, CA earlier this year.

In this Android tutorial, Marko will show you how to create your own implementation of the Application object, which you can use to make common features accessible to most parts of your Android app.

By the end of this tutorial, you should know how to:
- Create the Java class representing your implementation of Application object
- Register the new Application with the AndroidManifest.xml file

for some reason, the server string in the application file doesn't work correctly and makes my message fail when i click the button. remove the string in the first set of "" and just put the api url in the second set of "" it works fine. i checked the debugger and logs and it shows the url string as it should be, but it just doesn't work. i would copy/past the code to explain it better but youtube wont let my do it unless i butcher it so i hope i explained it enough. it'd be line 30 in yours

I swear I'd still be writing "Hello World!" if it wasn't for your screencasts! I think this one is by far one of the best. I had no idea that the demos were available like that. I usually learn how to do stuff exactly how you described - find something similar and study how it works so that I can adapt/create what I need. Thank you for the excellent videos - I'm definitely buying your book!
