Thanks Peli, Regarding the usage point. Lets say I develop my own SensorGestureDetector and place it in hardware folder of frameworks/ base and then my applications want to use it. Then how should my application use it, do u suggest the way GestureDetector is been used I mean u create a listener and implement the callbacks like onShake or whatever? or should we have 1 service/activity always listening to sensor data then calling sensorGestureDetector and getting the sensor getsure and then notifying the application accordingly. Which is a better way? which is a optimal and neater approach?
Thanks and Regards, Learning_Android.
