- When exiting the edit mode with unsaved changes, user is asked to save or discard the entry. Entries are no longer automatically saved.
Implementation
We have two main "Activities" in our code implementation. One is "JournalMapActivity", which corresponds to the journal/timeline screen. It is in charge of presenting the map, recalculating the arrow positions, and plotting the star markers. It also keeps track of the scrollable list of entries.
Once you tap to view or edit and entry, you enter "ViewEditActivity". This is the second activity that deals with both view and edit modes. It keeps track of which mode (view or edit) should be active, through the use of a Boolean value. It is in charge of displaying the appropriate "+ Photo" and "+ Contact" buttons, the photos and contacts themselves, and the textual descriptions.The menu items are also different for each mode.
We implemented the class Entry, which stores everything that can be part of an entry. This includes the timestamp/location of when/where the entry was made, its photos, text, and contacts. These entries are all stored in our database. Whenever a user views a previous entry, the system will look it up in the database, and retrieve and display the appropriate information.
