Development Process
Web based System
- Change the main User Interface as follows, (change the CSS)
- Start the doctor hospital time allocation process.
Android Development
Finally I could connect to the main Service into the Android application. Initially I tried many methods including ksoap2-android method but couldn't get to the service data into android application. Final I found the problem because of my endpoint binding method of the WCF (Windows Communication Foundation).
I used basichttpbinding method that was worked to the web based system. Finally I exposed a another Restful web service that used same service but change the binding method to the webhttpbinding and final out put is JSON(JavaScript Object Notation) type.
I design some part of the android project (But UI is not completed). Initial page can be displayed as follows,
After click the Enter, it shows as follows and that can load service data as follows,
When click the android Spinner (drop down) it populate the service data as follows,
I also successfully tested the Tab activities and the page navigation in the android development.
Lessons Learn
- Although this is first time in android development I could learn many things from the books and the web browsing.
- I could learn and implement Restful service and expose the JSON type data into the android development.
- Now I passed the difficult part of the android development without any other user help. (I spent about 4 weeks to connect the WCF service into android application)
