PhoneGap File API

It seems like PhoneGap has updated its API documentation. Before, all API documentation used to come up on the documentation page itself from PhoneGap. Now, the API Reference list is divided into Events and Plugin APIs. After clicking on Plugin APIs to look for a specific API, I am taken to a list of APIs available. Each of them open in GitHub.

FileSystem API: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/dev/doc/index.md

FileTransfer API: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file-transfer/blob/dev/doc/index.md

PhoneGap 3.4.0 Released

On March 4th 2014, PhoneGap released their newest version of PhoneGap.
As stated on their blog, the biggest new feature here is FireFox OS support. Since I'm not focusing on FireFox OS for my project, I won't be going into much detail about this update. However, a few plugins were tested on the new release of PhoneGap and some of them might be of great use. For example, the 'cordova-plugin-file: 1.0.0', 'cordova-plugin-file-transfer: 0.4.1', and 'cordova-plugin-media: 0.2.8'.

I will test this plugins after upgrading to the new version of PhoneGap.

Analysing and Defining Objectives

It's been a while since I last made a post on my Project Blog. So, starting from today I will resume making posts when I accomplish a tasks or want to accomplish one.

So, today's post is about analysing and defining the objectives of my project. My project is not only about research. It's a mixture of both technical and research aspects. Since I am developing Android prototypes using Native and Hybrid languages, that involves quite a lot of researching a coding.
Therefore, today's task is to analyse, define and number my project objectives and include them on my final report.

I will not list the objectives here, but only on the final report.

Till next day!
