Currently, I have configured the client part of my Android application (working on it for a couple of months, new to Android). Functionality on the client side is to allow the user to click a photo and attach some textual information to it. After the user clicked the photo, and then adding text information, he clicks the "Finish" button.
This information must be sent to the Server. For my project, this is a preview of using Google App Engine. Therefore, the best promotion method that I understood for storing images is to use Apache Blobstore. https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/blobstore/overview
Since I'm new to using the Google App Engine, I don't really understand how to interact between an Android device and the Blobstore service.
Now I understand how to use the Blobstore service for a web application (I did a Google App Engine tutorial http://www.rominirani.com/2009/12/18/episode-13-using-the-blobstore-java-api/ ) but I don’t understand how different it is from the Android application. I was unable to find much documentation between using Blobstore Api Service with Android. So I wanted to know if this is the right decision I made when using the Blobstore service to download an image from an Android device. Is there any other suggestion / better way.
Any help would be appreciated because my project has been pending for the past few days. Many thanks
