Using your own application class about sugar HOT 5 CLOSED

Your Application class could extend from SugarApp.

You could also use the code from SugarApp and include it in your application. This however, may need few more changes in other parts of the code, since we're taking the context from SugarApp.

I'd suggest extending it as an easier solution. Let me know if that's fine.

May I suggest that a future version of Sugar use an interface instead of inheritance?

For example, instead of:

MyApplication extends SugarApp {}

it could implement an interface

MyApplication extends Application implements ISugarApp {
   public void initializeSugar() {} //as an example
}

This would prevent issues when you need to extend other types of android application classes(perhaps from another 3rd party library), and helps sugar stand on it's own.

Of course, I would still leave SugarApp(inheritance version) as an option for convenience, since many applications will not have this problem.

@dereksantos do you have any merge request for this? I can get my way around java but implementing this proving hard for me

This has been implemented in bcb9bad.

My apologies for revisiting this, but after your changes were made, what do I need to implement within my MyApplication class for this to run? As with the user above, I am currently running a MyApplication extends Application setup for Singleton context purposes. Do I implement something after the extends? Or is there an entirely different solution?
Thanks!
