Re: [xwiki-devs] Xwiki android navigator

Hi, In Android ExpandableLIstViews only give developers a single level item view and here I designed it to give for 3 level (wiki, space and page). If you are expecting me to develop a component like described this will not be a traditional custom component which can be designed for Android. Custom components are just UI components only. It does only get data from outside and show in a way they designed.

So I will work on making some kind of Android Activity which can be used for developers. Android Activities can be started within the application and developers can use its' results. I completely agree with you on dynamically loading data in this component. So I'll add xwiki-android-rest to this component and load data dynamically through it.
