TUTORIAL BASIC4ANDROID > BASIC4ANDROID MEMBUAT CHART/GRAFIK

Anywhere Software is widening its offerings to Android enterprise developers by launching a charts framework, making it easier to incorporate appealing charts in Android-based applications, and adding a tutorial for connection to MySQL databases.

Bar Chart

The framework is aimed at allowing developers to easily add different types of charts. It currently supports pie charts, line charts and bar charts. The new charts framework is written in Basic4android as a code module, allowing developers to customize it according to their own specific needs. The code demonstrates several concepts including usage of custom types, drawings, string measurements and region clipping. 

The Android connection to MySQL databases tutorial explains the basic concepts required for creating a connection between an Android-based device and a remote server (MySQL database).

Until now, Android devices couldn’t connect directly to the database server. The new feature is a simple Web service that forwards the requests to the database and returns the response. Like the charts framework, it is also written in Basic4android as a code module allowing developers to customize it.

“The new additions are part of our ongoing efforts to widen the services offered to Android enterprise developers,” said Erel Uziel, CEO of Anywhere Software. “Our aim is to allow developers to constantly add cool and useful features to their applications.”
