iPhone Application Development—Grouping and filing in Performance Focused Project Set Up Part 12/7/2013 _ If we want our iPhone application development project more performance focused our coding should be excellent and for that we have to create well organized source code structure and for that we have to create the underlying file structure according to your project requirements and this tailor made underlying file structure would be import into the Xcode project. We can do this process by opening the underlying file structure of our iPhone application development project by right clicking the main project file situated at the left side of Groups & Files panel of Xcode interface. When you select the Show in Finder you will get there and you will see the underlying disk structure of Xcode project. _ Once you view the underlying project file structure you can create the file structure that can fit to your requirements and this structure can be imported into the Xcode. After this we are free to create the necessary directories and can move source code as well as resources as you like so you can do coding your own ways. When you are free to organizing source code and your essential resources in this particular manner you can get lots of benefits in your coding like speedy coding and clean code. _ Let's see this benefits through an example. If you have a series of images with similar names but depend upon the particular application variable than you can easily separate them into individual directory structure and can use the same file naming convention for simplicity and maintainability.
_ You know very well that PhoneGap offers very easy tools to get quick your app ready using web development scripts and you can do it for any platform you wish just one code base. In this post I would like to share my experience with PhoneGap application development. The first lesson was that if we want to develop a PhoneGap application for particular platform we should have perfect understanding of the design and development principles for those devices. Moreover, you need to have awareness about the current trends of that platform so you become contemporary. _ When you are going to develop an app for a particular platform that means you are simulating the native apps at other hand so native experiences. For instance in native app everything is in the device therefore, there is no need to download anything so no waiting period. But in case of PhoneGap application which is especially built for browser need to overcome this problem of downloading and for that we can do prefetching of the data or images so when user select the page and she instantly found loaded without missing a moment in downloading. _ For native app everything related to hardware is accessible by the app easily so that gives superb user experience therefore, in PhoneGap application you have to do coding such a way that your user can access every hardware component easily. Display of the app is important because native app has no URL bar or status bar or navigation bar as found in case of browser so hide the URL bar and navigation and place navigation according to platform like in iOS devices it found at the bottom while in Android it is at the top because Android has hardware buttons in the devices.
By and large testing is an unavoidable devil in any sort of software development and it has significant importance in Android Application Development as there are plenty of hardware fragmentation exists in the Android devices whether it may smartphones or tablets. These variations found in:
-> Screen size and resolution -> Version -> Form factor -> The presence of front-facing camera, NFC, external keyboard, etc. I think there are nearly four hundred types of android devices are out in the handheld devices market! And you need to test on the devices that your target audience is using the most. When you are going to test manually your application created in Android application development you need to set up your application in the device and carefully check the all functionalities. Once this process finished you have to return the device on its original state. The same action you have to repeatedly perform for each selected device. Generally we perform regular testing on the night and analyze the data on the day time therefore, testing can suck your most of the time even if you have a separate tester the process is extremely time consuming and daunting for anyone. Therefore, we need to have some automation techniques to perform this testing tasks in Android application development so you can get accurate results keeping the quality of your products and economically in terms of time and money both. We can automate the testing of Android applications using the Android SDK and some opensource tools. Once you run automation of testing you need to collect and analyze the testing data such as logs and screen shots at each step and the testing tools will generate the test results for these data. PHP is a renewed language of web development and it has many frameworks to help coders to accomplish their tasks beautifully and rapidly. Among them CakePHP is easy and useful framework for small and medium projects of CakePHP Website Development as it is intended to develop, deploy and maintain applications much easier. There are plenty of benefits of using CakePHP but today we will restricted up to understanding the file structure when you download the framework from its site.
When you download framework and you need to upload it on your testing server you should understand the file structure of the framework placed on the testing server. Generally you will find following files and folders on your testing server: Cake: this folder is storing all the core functions and internals required for CakePHP website development and you need not to edit anything here. Docs: This folder has very few files but it is important because it holds license information like COPYING.txt, a change log and some other important files. This folder has no part in running CakePHP application so you can remove that if you wish but keeping is good for a future need. App: This is the main folder where your code for the application created for CakePHP website development will stay and that is holding your controllers, configuration, templates and other useful files. This folder is an active part of your PHP application running so closely examine it and learn its structure carefully. In next part we will see something more about the understanding the file and folder structure as a beginner and some other aspects to getting started in CakePHP projects.
