Android Developer Blog Release ‘Linkify’ Tech Article

The official Android developer blog have released the first in a series of technical articles about the recently unveiled WikiNotes for Android application pack.

This first article covers the use of the Linkify function in which developers can use to transform ordinary text views into more 'richer link-oriented content'.

The Linkify class in the SDK is perfect for creating a wiki note pad. This class lets you specify a regular expression to match, and a scheme to prepend. The scheme is a string that, when the matched text is added, forms a Content URI to allow the correct data to be looked up.

The full technical article and code samples can be found over on the official developer blog here
