Re: [android-developers] remove logs after market
I don't get it, what logs? the ones you created for logcat? yeah, you can always remove or comment them, but why would you do that? the user won't see those unless he plugs the phone to the pc and if he does, so what? those messages are meant for troubleshooting rather then testing things out, isn't that how you're you using them? because if you are, what's the problem with leaving them there?

Re: [android-developers] remove logs after market
I agree with TreKing: it's very bad practice to leave your verbose logging in after development. It it still perhaps necessary to leave some logs in, but most of the chatty ones should be stripped from your app, as they'll be really annoying to other people, and just get in the way (and it's just unprofessional). Point #1 can be solved if you write a utility class in your app like Logger, that does the same thing as Log, but you can then throw out the appropriate methods in production. Point #2 has been solved (at least in theory) by information flow analysis, but I don't think there's a large scale production version of this. Point 3 can (if you find it annoying) be solved by doing a logcat | grep com.myapp or something similar, though maybe that won't quite work for everything you need. kris On Fri, Jan 20, 2012 at 9:07 AM, TreKing treking...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 12:31 PM, Leno Britto len...@gmail.com wrote: but why would you do that? the user won't see those unless he plugs the phone to the pc and if he does, so what? those messages are meant for troubleshooting rather then testing things out, isn't that how you're you using them? because if you are, what's the problem with leaving them there? 1 - Excessive logging slows your app down. 2 - Many apps have been known to leave inappropriate contents in their logs (keys, passwords, etc). 3 - For developers, it's quite annoying to debug one's own app while the LogCat is flooded with crap from other apps that shouldn't be there in release. - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] remove logs after market
