Employee Directory

Prototypical contacts application that can talk LDAP.

Available for Android and Windows Phone.

http://xamarin.com/prebuilt/employeedirectory

This sample has been removed for iOS because the "UISearchDisplayController" API was depercated in iOS 8+ and replaced with "UISearchController". There is also a bug with IOS 13+ which causes the sample to crash on iOS 13+. Please see this sample for an example of working with "UISearchController".

Field Service

A field service app containing a list of assignments. Take photos, signatures, record hours, etc.

Available for iOS, Android and as a Windows Store app (Windows 8 and Windows RT).

http://xamarin.com/prebuilt/fieldservice

Note on the included solutions and projects

There are two solutions for each application: Xamarin.sln and VisualStudio.sln.

• The Xamarin solution contains iOS and Android projects, and is primarily targetted at developers on OS X using Xamarin Studio.

• The VisualStudio solution contains Android and Windows projects, and is primarily targetted at developers on Windows using Visual Studio (since it can handle the Windows project types).

Alternatively you can open any of the individual platform project files, or you can choose to add the existing iOS project to your Visual Studio solution.

• To get the WinRT version working you need to install the Bing Maps VS extension: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/ebc98390-5320-4088-a2b5-8f276e4530f9

• Both samples utilize Shared Projects, make sure that you use Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 or higher.

prebuilt-apps's Issues

Strange separator in when adding an expense and changing its category

Add Signature popover should animate when opening.

It fades when it closes, but doesn't animate when it opens.

FieldService Pre-Built in portable

Is this pre-built app available in PCL(portable)? I see on the repo there's only .Shared project.

FieldService iOS app crashes on device after signing and completing assignment

On a device (works correctly on simulator) running iOS version 7.1, the app crashes with an assert failure after signing and completing assignment.

To Reproduce:

1. Launch iOS app and login
2. Click "Active" button for top current assignment and select complete.
3. Click "Add Signature" button and add and save your signature.
4. Click Complete button and answer "yes" to alert dialog.

Expected result: assignment is completed and app continues to run.
Actual result: App crashes with:
Assertion failed: (tb.x == CGRectGetMinX(tile_bounds)), function ripc_GetPattern, file RIP/RIPColor.c, line 803.

Also, when loading the AssignmentsController, there are ~420 lines similar to the following:
FieldServiceiOS[2181] : CGContextSaveGState: invalid context 0x0. This is a serious error. This application, or a library it uses, is using an invalid context and is thereby contributing to an overall degradation of system stability and reliability. This notice is a courtesy: please fix this problem. It will become a fatal error in an upcoming update.

These do not seem to cause a crash, but why look like serious warnings. It even says "Serious error" . :-)

[Android] Update to Google Maps v2 API (Google Play Services)

Developers can no longer obtain v1 Google Maps API keys, but the solution only implements v1. Need to update the Field Service (Android) app to use Google Play Services and the v2 API so that developers can leverage maps in Android app.

Field service master.zip missing files

The master.zip file available from the Xamarin web site is missing two sqlite C# files which prevents the FieldService.Xamarin.sln from compiling.

• SQLite.cs
• SQLiteAsync.cs

[EmployeeDirectory.iOS] Searching by name stops working after canceling search by title and closing app

Hi guys,

I'm experiencing an issue on an iPhone 5 (iOS 7) where if you open the search and filter it by title, then cancel the search and close the app, search by name will stop working.

Steps to reproduce:

• Install the app on device (I tested on an iPhone 5 with iOS 7)
• Log in using any password and user name
• Tap the search box, and type "Miguel" (to see that searching by name works initially)
• Tap the search category "Title" and type "dev" or any other text (make sure you type it after tapping Title)
• Tap cancel, then close the app by double tapping the home button and reopening it
• Reopen the app
• Open the app, tap search and try searching for "Miguel" again under the Name category

Expected Result:
Miguel de Icaza should show up in the search results

Actual Result:
Nothing appears in the results

EmployeeDirectory.Android: Cannot cast from source to destination type

I have just pulled the EmployeeDirectory app, and when I run the Android app, after logging in, an exception is thrown in the PeopleGroupsAdapter.cs (A System.InvalidCastException was thrown. Cannot cast from source type to destination type.)

Someone else has had this problem see here

FieldService: cannot swipe-to-complete assignments

I though we agreed on swipe-to-complete interaction on the assignments list.

[EmployeeDirectory.iOS (iOS 6)] Freezes if you double tap on search, switch search categeory, then search after a clean install

Hi guys,

On iOS 6, if you deploy this app as a clean install, the app will freeze if you take the following steps:

• Log into the app
• Double tap on the search bar near the middle so that a search category other than 'Name' will be selected before the categories actually appear from under the search bar (I've only tested with selecting 'Dept')
• Select another category, such as as 'Name'
• Start typing into the keyboard

If you follow these steps exactly, the app will freeze when typing the first letter. If the steps aren't followed exactly, then searching will probably work fine and continue working fine, and in order to get the bug back happening again you will have to uninstall the app and start again from a clean install.

This only happens on iOS 6 devices.

I've tried debugging it, but no exceptions are thrown. Also, if you use break points in the searching methods then the search will work correctly, making it incredibly difficult to debug.

White time label on light gray background is hard to read

Please use dark text.

Make Add Photo, Add Signature buttons look similar

They have the same function, yet one is a filled square and one is a borderless button. Both should look like buttons, both should have an icon.

Use white text for selected state in menu

EmployeeDirectory needs to be ported to WinPhone 8.1

I think the issue is that a newer version of Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Toolkit is required that removes all of the types that are duplicated in the now included WinPhone assemblies. See:

Assignment numbers are too light, hard to read

Please increase the weight of the numbers, and increase contrast in all states:

Login screen flashes after spinny, before logging in

After I press "Log in", the login fields disappears and I see a spinny. After the spinny, I see the login fields again, then the login form disappears. Don't blink the form again after the spinny.
