Programming is hard.

You’ll never have finished learning programming, so learn to enjoy learning.

Implemented a solution for users with problems about sms messages saved in google calendar with an offset of hours. Now you have an offset option in preferences to add (+X) or remove (-X) hours to the sms time.

Sorry about the delay for fixing this.

• Option to insert drinks in other date and hour than now. Desktop widget still inserts the drinks with the date and hour in the instant of insertion.
• Improved calendar issues between different versions of android.

Tested on android 2.1 and 2.2.

Uri SMSURI = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox");
String[] projection = new String[]{"_id", "address", "body", "date"};
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
	cursor = getContentResolver().query(SMSURI
			, projection
			, null //selection
			, null //selectionArgs
			, null); //sortOrder

	if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
		do {
			int    id    = cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex("_id"));
			String address = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("address"));
			String body = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("body"));
			String date = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("date"));

			SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy - HH:mm:ss");
			date = formatter.format(new Date(Long.parseLong(date))); 

			Log.d(Constants.LOGCAT, "id: " + id + "  address: " + address + "  body: " + body + "  date: " + date);

		} while (cursor.moveToNext());
	}
} finally {
	if (cursor != null) {
		cursor.close();
	}
}

Remember to set the properly permissions in android.manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_SMS" />

Some users are reporting that when they goes to preference screen no calendar are shown in order to select the calendar where the entries will be uploaded.

Having the calendar synchronized with your google calendar account in android general preferences is MANDATORY. Other way, the app (sms2cal and Drink-O-Meter) won’t work.

Option to choose where to put the content of the sms in the calendar entry; two options:

• Place the sms csontent in the title, right after the name/number of the sender;

• Place the sms content in the description;

There have been users reporting problems using the app in a mobile synced with more than one google account. When the list of calendars is displayed in the preferences all calendars of all synced accounts are displayed. The sms will be backuped to the account of the calendar you have selected.

• Enabled froyo support (android 2.2)
