Open source frameworksto generate graphical reports? - android

Can any one suggest me any open source framework to generate reports in android apps? (Some thing like 'Core-plot' for iPhone development)

iText is available for android, although I don't know how stable it is:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/itextpdfandroid/
There are several chart libraries for android:
http://android.arnodenhond.com/components/graphview
http://rapidandroid.org/wiki/Graphing
http://www.java4less.com/charts/chart.php?info=android
http://androidplot.com/wiki/Quickstart
http://code.google.com/p/chartdroid/
http://www.keepedge.com/
And Femi just posted a link to a related question, so I will stop here.

See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/424752/any-good-graphing-packages-for-android for an existing discussion.

Take a look at AChartEngine. It includes a bunch of chart types, a lot of demo code and is free to use for both free or commercial applications.

ScrolledListView in Android

I found this Image on the web and want to use a such list in android. Do you have an idea where I can find a such List in Android Studio?
There are certain lists that others have provided as free source code to be used within your applications. What you have discovered is not a built-in feature of Android (the IDE has not relevance on this).
You can however find resources to use a wheel such as those. One of which used in the past has been from the android-wheel code. Most will demonstrate examples and provide useful tips on going forward with implementation. But you can find others if you look hard enough.

Android Bootstrap what is that really, what does it do?

According to this link www.androidbootstrap.com/‎ I am wondering what does it really do, what is for? Am I supposed to use it?
I've read all text on this main page but I am still confused and I do not know should I use it.
The main problem is I don't see the point. Could someone tell me what is it for?
I am open for new technologies but here is the example where I don't understand, but they say that using their package will shorten my work on application.
Regards and I am looking for any information.
I am wondering what does it really do
It generates a skeleton Android project containing specific libraries. It is reminiscent of the new-project wizard in Eclipse, just supporting more third-party libraries, particularly ones that may be a bit of a challenge to get working together.
I had a look at this project to provide a quick set up for actionbarsherlock and dagger DI.
I think it’s a good idea as it seeks to provide an android template, with an out the box solution including sherlock and dagger. But I couldn’t get it working on eclipse, and the forum had a lot of people saying the same (I think its designed for Intelij IDEA)
I also looked at androidkickstartr which is more mature, but again had import issues, so just made my own template and imported sherlock and dagger

cocos2d-android documentation

I am developing android game using opensource cocos2d-android-1 library available here . I also developed demo application using this tutorial.
Now I want to do further development but I am not getting any documentation for this library and how to use library. If anybody knows any blog, forum, documentation for this library project please suggest me.
I recommend you use cocos2d-x instead. It is also a port of cocos2d-iphone but with more platforms, a better documentation and a wider community than cocos2d-android (but still not as good as cocos2d-iphone).
It's probably a bit more painful to start because you need to understand how to run native code on android but you probably won't regret it when you decide to port your game on another platform.
many example is available on the github for cocos2d-android and documentation is not in large scale but you can handle most of the things from the test sample which is available in the cocos2d-andriod . if you getting any problem ..post here to get the answer or help..

Fill pdf form in Android

I am trying to develop a paid app in which part of it involve filling out an already existing pdf form. I am looking for a way to do it in Android. I have searched stack overflow and I found a library to use like iText, but it doesn't meet my needs. My requirements are the following and I hope you guys can help me out
my app is paid app so I am looking for a library to allow me to use I for commercial purposes without limitation hidden in footnote of licenses
I need it to work in Android as I heard libraries like iText have issue in Android (don't know why although both are Java)
So any suggestions? I just need to view and edit/fill pdfs, that's all.
You could look at Docmosis which has a cloud service using templates and merging data to PDF. Some devs have found it a reasonable (

Is "AndroidAnnotaions" reliable?

Is "AndroidAnnotations" reliable? I've searched it but couldn't find many articles on it(reviews or tutorials).
I've been considering using this library in my project which already has quite lots of users. Before adopting it, I need a good reputation on it. So my concerns mainly are,
Are there famous products using this library?
Can I say it's stable enough to adopt it for my big project?
Will it be maintained well? (bug fixes, etc)
Thanks in advance.
I am the lead developer of AndroidAnnotations. Let's answer your questions:
Can you rely on AndroidAnnotations?
I think so. AndroidAnnotations is a compile time framework which generates code. The generated code is readable java code, which means that if you need to understand what happens, you can. No magic happening at runtime => you are in control.
We try to maintain a list of external articles / tutorials here.
Are there famous products using this library?
Let's be honest: I don't know. Matthias Kaeppler from Qype talked about AndroidAnnotations at DroidCon London 2011. The frontpage lists the applications that we know for sure are using it. I know there are way more people using it because they ask for enhancements and report bugs, but they usually don't let us know when they publish an app. And of course, the idea of "writing clean and maintainable Android code" is not yet very common in the Android community.
Can I say it's stable enough to adopt it for my big project?
We are using it in our own apps, and we find it perfectly stable. So I would answer yes, but I think you should just try it :-) . Download the 2.2 RC2 (will be released stable soon), follow the instructions and see for yourself. You can do progressive enhancement, and start enhancing only one or two activities. See how it fits you, and let us know if anything goes wrong. And if you do release an app with AndroidAnnotations on the Android market, please let us know, we'll update the front page.
Will AndroidAnnotations be maintained?
Yes, it will. Although it started as a personal project, AndroidAnnotations is now sponsored by a company, eBusiness Information. This company employs people (including me) to work on AndroidAnnotations, with the aim of making it a major Open Source Android framework.
As you can see here and there, we are adding a lot of new features for the 2.2 release. And you won't find a lot of open Defects in the issues, because we concentrate on fixing any bug before adding new features.
