I've googled this but, nothing useful came up. It's really simple, i'm looking for a service that supports Unity games distribution and usage tracking, with crash reports and whatnot, something like TestFlight or HockeyApp but for Unity games!
Thanks in advance !
If you search for "analytics" in the Unity Asset Store there are some systems that support Unity PC. These can be used to track usage, and some track errors too. Usually analytics systems support attaching extra data to an event, and you could use this to send uncaught exceptions to the service.
Application.RegisterLogCallback can be used for this.
void OnEnable() {
Application.RegisterLogCallback(ErrorReporter);
}
void OnDisable() {
Application.RegisterLogCallback(null);
}
void ErrorReporter (string logString, string stackTrace, LogType type) {
if (type == LogType.Assert || type == LogType.Error || type == LogType.Exception) {
// send analytics message with logString and/or stackTrace attached.
}
}

I am currently trying to implement the Java web service(Rest API) where the endpoint creates the device in the IoTHub and updates the device twin.
There are two methods available in the azure-iot sdk. One is
addDevice(deviceId, authenticationtype)
and another is to
addDeviceAsync(deviceId, authenticationtype)
I just wanted to figure out which one should I use in the web service(as a best practice). I am not very strong in MultiThreading/Concurrency so was wondering to receive people's expertise on this. Any suggestion/Link related to this is much appreciated
Thanks.
The Async version of AddDevice is basically the same. If you use AddDeviceAsync then a thread is created to run the AddDevice call so you are not blocked on it.
Check the code#L269 of RegistryManager doing exactly that: https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-java/blob/master/service/iot-service-client/src/main/java/com/microsoft/azure/sdk/iot/service/RegistryManager.java#L269
public CompletableFuture<Device> addDeviceAsync(Device device) throws IOException, IotHubException
{
if (device == null)
{
throw new IllegalArgumentException("device cannot be null");
}
final CompletableFuture<Device> future = new CompletableFuture<>();
executor.submit(() ->
{
try
{
Device responseDevice = addDevice(device);
future.complete(responseDevice);
}
catch (IOException | IotHubException e)
{
future.completeExceptionally(e);
}
});
return future;
}
You can as well build your own async wrapper and call AddDevice() from there.
Google Play recently released the “Android Vitals” feature in the Google Play Console whereby they present analytic information about the released app.
The Android Vitals tab contains analytic information like crashes, ANR, multi-crashes, Slow Rendering, Frozen Frames, etc. They also show “bad behaviour” metrics whereby they compare the analytics of your app with benchmarks. If your app gets flagged with bad beahviours flags, then supposedly it can impact your rankings/downloads etc.
Is anyone else experiencing bad behaviour flags in their app on google play?
Has anyone else seen a dramatic decrease in organic traffic since the Android Vitals tab was introduced?
Does anyone have any advice on how to best solve these “bad behaviour” flags considering our Apps are developed with AS
Thanks in advance

An "App crashing" bad behavior means your app is crashing a lot.
Google Play has publicly said (eg this talk) that it will use bad behavior as a signal when deciding which how to order apps in search results, and choose which apps to promote.
In order to fix this - get your development team to make crash fixing a priority, not just adding new features. Use the crash reports in the Play console to find out the bugs in your app, and fix them.
I am developing a network monitor app that runs in background as a service. Is it possible to get a notification/call when the screen is turned on or off?
It exists in Android by using the following code:
private void registerScreenOnOffReceiver()
{
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF);
registerReceiver(screenOnOffReceiver, filter);
}
screenOnOffReceiver is then called when screen is turned on/off. Is there a similar solution for iOS?
Edit:
The best I've found so far is UIApplicationProtectedDataWillBecomeUnavailable ( Detect if iPhone screen is on/off ) but it require the user to enable Data Protection (password protection) on the device.
You can use Darwin notifications, to listen for the events. I'm not 100% sure, but it looks to me, from running on a jailbroken iOS 5.0.1 iPhone 4, that one of these events might be what you need:
com.apple.iokit.hid.displayStatus
com.apple.springboard.hasBlankedScreen
com.apple.springboard.lockstate
Update: also, the following notification is posted when the phone locks (but not when it unlocks):
com.apple.springboard.lockcomplete
To use this, register for the event like this (this registers for just one event, but if that doesn't work for you, try the others):
CFNotificationCenterAddObserver(CFNotificationCenterGetDarwinNotifyCenter(), //center
NULL, // observer
displayStatusChanged, // callback
CFSTR("com.apple.iokit.hid.displayStatus"), // event name
NULL, // object
CFNotificationSuspensionBehaviorDeliverImmediately);
where displayStatusChanged is your event callback:
static void displayStatusChanged(CFNotificationCenterRef center, void *observer, CFStringRef name, const void *object, CFDictionaryRef userInfo) {
NSLog(#"event received!");
// you might try inspecting the `userInfo` dictionary, to see
// if it contains any useful info
if (userInfo != nil) {
CFShow(userInfo);
}
}
If you really want this code to run in the background as a service, and you're jailbroken, I would recommend looking into iOS Launch Daemons. As opposed to an app that you simply let run in the background, a launch daemon can start automatically after a reboot, and you don't have to worry about iOS rules for apps running tasks in the background.
Let us know how this works!
Using the lower-level notify API you can query the lockstate when a notification is received:
#import <notify.h>
int notify_token;
notify_register_dispatch("com.apple.springboard.lockstate", ¬ify_token, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^(int token) {
uint64_t state = UINT64_MAX;
notify_get_state(token, &state);
NSLog(#"com.apple.springboard.lockstate = %llu", state);
});
Of course your app will have to start a UIBackgroundTask in order to get the notifications, which limits the usefulness of this technique due to the limited runtime allowed by iOS.
While iPhone screen is locked appdelegate method
"- (void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application"
will be called you can check that. Hope it may help you.
I'm currently developing a camera application for Android on which some problems have occurred. I need it to work on all Android devices and since all of these works in different ways specially with the camera hardware, I'm having a hard time finding a solution that works for every device.
My application main goal is to launch the camera on a button click, take a photo and upload it to a server. So I don't really need the functionality of saving the image on the device, but if that's needed for further image use I might as well allow it.
For example I'm testing my application on a Samsung Galaxy SII and a Motorola Pad. I got working code that launches the camera, which is by the way C# code since I'm using Monodroid:
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(Android.Provider.MediaStore.ActionImageCapture);
StartActivityForResult(cameraIntent, PHOTO_CAPTURE);
And I fetch the result, similar to this guide I followed:
http://kevinpotgieter.wordpress.com/2011/03/30/null-intent-passed-back-on-samsung-galaxy-tab/
Why I followed this guide is because the activity returns null on my galaxy device (Another device oriented problem).
This code works fine on the Galaxy device. It takes a photo and saves the photo in the gallery from which i can upload to a server. By further research this is apparently galaxy standard behaviour, so this doesn't work on my Motorola pad. The camera works fine, but no image is saved to gallery.
So with this background my question is, am I on the right path here? Do I need to save the image to gallery in order for further use in my application? Is there any solution that works for every Android device, cause that's the solution i need.
Thanks for any feedback!
After reading the linked article, the approach taken in that article is geared toward the Galaxy line, since they appear to write to the gallery automatically.
This article discusses some other scenarios in detail:
Android ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE Intent
So, I don't necessarily think that following the linked article that you provided is the right path. Not all devices automatically write to the gallery as described in that article, afaik. The article I linked to points to the issues being related to security and suggests writing the image to a /sdcard/tmp folder for storing the original image. Going down a similar path would more than likely lead to code that is going to work reliably across many devices.
Here are some other links for reference:
Google discussion regarding this subject: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1480
Project with potential a solution to the problem: https://github.com/johnyma22/classdroid
While that discussion/project are in Java/Android SDK, the same concepts should apply to Monodroid. I'd be happy to help you adapt the code to a working Mono for Android solution if you need help.
To long2know:
Yes the same concepts applies to Monodroid. I've already read the stack article you linked among with some other similar. However i don't like the approach in that particular post since it checks for bugs for some devices that are hardcoded into a collection. Meaning it might fail to detect bugs in future devices. Since i won't be doing maintenance on this application, i can't allow this. I found a solution elsewhere and adapted it to my case and i'll post it below if someone would need it. It works on both my devices, guessing it would work for the majority of other devices. Thanks for your post!
Solution that allows you to snap a picture and use, also with the option of using a image from gallery. Solution uses option menu for these purposes, just for testing. (Monodroid code).
Camera code is inspired by:

}
// Example code of using the result, in my case i want to upload in another activity
protected override void OnActivityResult(int requestCode, Result resultCode, Intent data)
{
// If a picture was taken
if (resultCode == Result.Ok && requestCode == TakePicture)
{
// For some devices data can become null when using the camera activity.
// For this reason we save pass the already saved imageUriString to the upload activity
// in order to adapt to every device. Instead we would want to use the data intent
// like in the SelectPicture option.
var uploadIntent = new Intent(this.BaseContext, typeof(UploadActivity));
uploadIntent.PutExtra("ImageUri", this.imageUriString);
this.StartActivity(uploadIntent);
}
// User has selected a image from storage

I want to have several buses in one process. I googled about this and found that it is possible only if having several AppDomains. But I cannot make it work.
Here is my code sample (I do everything in one class library):
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Reflection;
using MyMessages;
using NServiceBus;
using NServiceBus.Config;
using NServiceBus.Config.ConfigurationSource;
namespace Subscriber1
{
public class Sender
{
public static void Main()
{
var domain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("someDomain", AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Evidence);
domain.Load(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName());
domain.CreateInstance(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().FullName, typeof (PluginBusCreator).FullName);
//here I have some code to send messages to "PluginQueue".
}
}
public class PluginBusCreator
{
public PluginBusCreator()
{
var Bus = Configure.With(
Assembly.Load("NServiceBus"), Assembly.Load("NServiceBus.Core"),
Assembly.LoadFrom("NServiceBus.Host.exe"), Assembly.GetCallingAssembly())
.CustomConfigurationSource(new PluginConfigurationSource())
.SpringFrameworkBuilder()
.XmlSerializer().MsmqTransport()
.UnicastBus().LoadMessageHandlers<First<SomeHandler>>().CreateBus().Start();
}
protected IBus Bus { get; set; }
}
class PluginConfigurationSource : IConfigurationSource
{
public T GetConfiguration<T>() where T : class
{
{
if (typeof (T) == typeof (MsmqTransportConfig))
return new MsmqTransportConfig
{
ErrorQueue = "error",
InputQueue = "PluginQueue",
MaxRetries = 1,
NumberOfWorkerThreads = 1
} as T;
return null;
}
}
}
public class SomeHandler : IHandleMessages<EventMessage1>
{
public void Handle(EventMessage1 message)
{
Debugger.Break();
}
}
}
And I don't get handler invoked.
If you have any ideas, please help. I'm fighting this problem a lot of time.
Also if full code need to be published, please tell.
I need several buses to solve the following problem :
I have my target application, and several plugins with it. We decided to make our plugins according to service bus pattern.
Each plugin can have several profiles.
So, target application(it is web app.) is publishing message, that something has changed in it. Each plugin which is subscribed to this message, need to do some action for each profile. But plugin knows nothing about its profiles (customers are writing plugins). Plugin should only have profile injected in it, when message handling started.
We decided to have some RecepientList (pattern is described in "Enterprise Integration Patterns"), which knows about plugin profiles, iterates through them and re-send messages with profiles injected.(So if plugin has several profiles, several messages will be sent to it).
But I don't want to have each plugin invoked in a new process. Perfectly I want to dynamically configure buses for each plugin during start. All in one process. But it seems I need to do it in separate AppDomains. So I have a problem described above:-).
Sergey,
I'm unclear as to why each plugin needs to have its own bus. Could they all not sit on the same bus? Each plugin developer would write their message handlers as before, and the subscriptions would happen automatically by the bus.
Then, also, you wouldn't need to specify to load each of the NServiceBus DLLs.
BTW, loading an assembly by name tends to cause problems - try using this to specify assemblies:
typeof(IMessage).Assembly, typeof(MsmqTransportConfig).Assembly, typeof(IConfigureThisEndpoint).Assembly
