Question

I am playing with the Google in-app billing example app “Dungeons”.

In this app, I can either click on the “Buy” button to buy something or on the “Edit Payload” button to…edit the payload :). But I don’t understand what does this button and what “Edit Payload” means… Can anyone clarify that ?

By the way, can anyone tell me how the “Buy” button fires the buying action as the code in the Dungeons app is the following (the buying action is launched by I don’t understand how…):

public void onClick(View v) {
        if (v == mBuyButton) {
            // NO CODE HERE TO DO SOMETHING ???!!!
            if (!mBillingService.requestPurchase(mSku, mPayloadContents)) {
                showDialog(DIALOG_BILLING_NOT_SUPPORTED_ID);
            }
        } else if (v == mEditPayloadButton) {
            showPayloadEditDialog();
        }
    }

Thanks !

in the if statment the requestPurchase method is called, this does the purchase request then if it fails, the error Dialog box is shown. From there you can also follow the payload down to see how it is used.
