Hi Brad, Thanks for your response. I followed the links you gave and was able to progress ahead.
I followed the simple concept of CloudNotes. My is compiling fine. I also created an application and deployed that on the App Engine. I have a simple UI that consists of a EditText and a button. Idea is when the person clicks on Send button I will send the text entered to the DataStore. Below is the piece of Code i m using. I am using Emulator to test my program. Target is set to Google API 18. The problem is that I am not able to see any error when I click Send button, but I am also not able to see my entities in the DataStore as mentioned in the last step of thie page - https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/endpoints-testdeploy package com.cloudnotes; import java.io.IOException; import java.util.Date; import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Context; import android.os.AsyncTask; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.Menu; import android.view.View; import android.widget.EditText; import com.cloudnotes.noteendpoint.Noteendpoint; import com.cloudnotes.noteendpoint.model.Note; import com.google.api.client.extensions.android.http.AndroidHttp; import com.google.api.client.http.HttpRequest; import com.google.api.client.http.HttpRequestInitializer; import com.google.api.client.json.jackson.JacksonFactory; public class MainActivity extends Activity { @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); //new EndpointsTask().execute(getApplicationContext()); } @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu); return true; } public void sendMsg(View view) { EditText msgTxt = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1); String msg = msgTxt.getText().toString(); System.out.println("Note to be inserted - " + msg); if (msg.length() > 0){ new EndpointsTask().execute(getApplicationContext()); } } public class EndpointsTask extends AsyncTask<Context, Integer, Long> { protected Long doInBackground(Context... contexts) { System.out.println("Entered doInBackground"); Noteendpoint.Builder endpointBuilder = new Noteendpoint.Builder( AndroidHttp.newCompatibleTransport(), new JacksonFactory(), new HttpRequestInitializer() { public void initialize(HttpRequest httpRequest) { } }); Noteendpoint endpoint = CloudEndpointUtils.updateBuilder( endpointBuilder).build(); try { Note note = new Note().setDescription("Note Description"); String noteID = new Date().toString(); note.setId(noteID); note.setEmailAddress("E-Mail Address"); Note result = endpoint.insertNote(note).execute(); System.out.println("Entered doInBackground:result - "+result); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return (long) 0; } } } On Tuesday, August 6, 2013 12:06:56 AM UTC+5:30, Brad Abrams wrote: > > You only need RegisterActivity for GCM support... if you are just storing > data then what you need to do is create some server data object (such as > Notes in this example) > https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/endpoints-addentities > Then add a Endpoint exposing it... then you can call that endpoint from > your MainActivity. > > > But if you just want to store some simple state, I'd suggest: > > https://developers.google.com/cloud/samples/mbs/ > > No server code required... > > > ..brad > > > On Sun, Aug 4, 2013 at 1:16 PM, Lekh Raj <[email protected]<javascript:> > > wrote: > >> >> I have just developed a simple android application.
