I have an android app that authenticates with my GAE app using "Google
Accounts" authentication. Here's a snippet from app engine documentation:
"Google Accounts: is Google's unified sign-in system. All a user needs is a
valid email address (it doesn't need to be a Gmail address!) to sign up for
a Google Account**"
I use the android AccountManager.getAccountsByType('com.google") call to
determine all the eligible accounts on the android device, that can be used
to authenticate with my GAE app. However, the getAccountsByType only
returns a list of Gmail accounts, and omits google app accounts on private
domains. I was hoping that since my GAE authentication scheme uses "Google
Accounts", and the snippet above says "it doesn't need to be a Gmal
address", that the getAccountsByType android API will return google app
accounts as well, which users could use against my GAE app. Anyone know why
my getAccountsByType() API is behaving this way? Is there a different type
string - other than "com.google" that I need to pass to get google app
accounts hosted on private domains?
Thanks
