I agree, the Android API docs are horribly inadequate. Why aren't
there examples _with the docs_? I don't want to go digging through
some random apps hoping to find an example of what I need. I want to
see practical examples on the same page with the docs. With their 30%
take on all our app sales, you'd think they would want us to be able
to figure stuff out easier.
Last night I wasted two hours beating my head against the wall trying
to figure out why a market:// url wouldn't work in the emulator. I
finally figured it out when I tried it on my phone and it worked.
That's when I realized the emulator doesn't have a marketplace app and
obviously doesn't understand market:// urls.
