Thanks for the link, I didn't realize that the eclipse plugin http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7
which I am using has a feature whereby you can File -> New -> Other -> Android -> App Engine Connected Android Project The video discusses RPC (remote procedure calls) and C2DM (cloud 2 device messaging). C2DM seems interesting as it allows the server to notify a device when some data needs to be pushed to a device. I wonder what would happen if a device was ofline when C2DM kicked in. To be honest much of the video was over my head, but I'm going to try and have a look at that too. I got the following URLs out of the video (shown towards the end): http://bigdaddy-io.appspot.com/ http://code.google.com/p/cloud-tasks-io http://cloudtasks-io.appspot.com/ <http://cloudtasksio.appspot.com/> I'm going to have a look at these too, Regards, John Goche On Sun, Jan 8, 2012 at 5:38 PM, Nikolay Elenkov <[email protected]>wrote: > On Mon, Jan 9, 2012 at 1:18 AM, Kostya Vasilyev <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > > Google I/O 2011: Android + App Engine: A Developer's Dream Combination > > > > The video covers this plugin for Eclipse: > > > > http://code.google.com/eclipse/ > > > > ... which makes it very easy to create Andorid apps that talk to a GAE > > backend, complete with device-to-GAE authentication and C2DM. > > > > Completely forgot about this one.
