How to make Android app automatically configure w/ debug vs. release values?

Question

I\'m working on an Android app, specifically one that uses the Facebook Android SDK. In development mode, I\'m working with a test Facebook app that goes by one ID. However, i

Usually you will use 1 or 2 devices for debugging only. So you can set the DEBUG switch based on the Devices? So you can simply use the IMEI.

1. add a new Application class to your project and have it initialize the field (suspect to put it in a Const class).

   In your Applications onCreate method, call Const.setupDebug(getApplicationContext());

2. Implement the setupDebug like this

   public class Const {

   private static boolean debug = false;
   
   
   public static boolean isDebug() {
       return debug;
   }
   
   
   private static void setDebug(boolean debug) {
       Const.debug = debug;
   }
   
   
   private static String [] DEBUG_DEVICES = new String[] {
           "000000000000000", "gfjdhsgfhjsdg" // add ur devices
   };
   
   
   public static void setupDebug(Context context) {
       Arrays.sort(DEBUG_DEVICES);
   
   
   TelephonyManager mTelephonyMgr = (TelephonyManager)
           context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
   String imei = mTelephonyMgr.getDeviceId();
   if (imei == null) imei = "000000000000000";
   
   
   if(Arrays.binarySearch(DEBUG_DEVICES, imei) > -1) {
       setDebug(true);
   }
   
   
   }
   

   }

3. Switch from constant field to constant Method.

   Const.isDebug()
