The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development Version 8.2 Released

Subscribers now have
access to the latest release of The Busy Coder���s Guide to Android Development,
known as Version 8.2, in all formats. Just log into
your Warescription page and download
away, or set up an account and subscribe!



In this update, I:





Added a chapter on the basics of using RxJava




Added a chapter on viewing PDFs, including embedding PDF viewers
in your app




Added a chapter on advanced RecyclerView techniques, starting
with using RecyclerView to replace a ViewPager for page-at-a-time user
interfaces




Removed the appendix focusing on Android 7.0���s changes, with that material
being moved into appropriate chapters of the book




Added various miscellaneous improvements and errata fixes





This update also uses two different font sizes for code listings, employing a
larger font for listings whose lines are all fairly short, to help improve
readabililty.



Due to a change in the publication process, links between chapters
are showing up with changebars in this version. This should be a
one-time issue, not affecting future versions of the book.



Also, the APK edition of the book has a new appinar on
Android 7.0���s changes to notifications.



The next update is planned for late February.
