Alternatively, you can build the jar manually from the code with `./gradlew clean jarRelease`. The jar file
will be available in the build\libs directory. Then you can add that jar as a library to another project.

Details for using the library are in the JavaDoc for the CrowdControl class, and in the help wiki at http://help.lotame.com/display/HELP/Mobile+SDK%27s
Incorporate the following general pattern into your app to collect and transmit data to Lotame, replacing CLIENT_ID with the id provided by Lotame:
```
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.lotame.android.CrowdControl;
import com.lotame.android.CrowdControl.Protocol;
public class SampleActivity extends Activity {
private static final int CLIENT_ID = <YourClientID>;
private static final int TIMEOUT_MILLIS = 5000;
private CrowdControl ccHttp;
private CrowdControl ccHttps;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// 'this' can be passed in as the CrowdControl constructor's first
// argument because this extends android.content.Context.
// Because no protocol is specified, HTTP will be used.
ccHttp = new CrowdControl(this, CLIENT_ID);
// Instantiating a CrowdControl instance configured for HTTPS
ccHttps = new CrowdControl(this, CLIENT_ID, Protocol.HTTPS);
}
public void collectAndSendSomethingInteresting() throws IOException
{
// Add data points to collect. This can be called any number of times
ccHttp.add("seg","poweruser");
if (ccHttp.isInitialized()) {
// Optional check that the CrowdControl instance has been initialized.
// Transfer data to Lotame servers. This will transfer all data
// provided via add since the last call to bcp(). Use bcpAsync()
// for asynchronous send.
ccHttp.bcp();
}
}
/**
* @return String a JSON representation of the audience info for the current id
*/
public String getAudienceInfo() throws IOException
{
return ccHttp.getAudienceJSON(TIMEOUT_MILLIS, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
}
@Override
protected void onStart()
{
super.onStart();
ccHttp.startSession();
}
}
```
Call startSession() whenever the user initiates a new session by your definition of a session. For every session, the first call to bcp() or bcpAsync() will count as a "Page View" in the DMP stats.


Additional details for using the library are in the JavaDoc for the [CrowdControl class](src/main/java/com/lotame/android/CrowdControl.java)

## Building
Use `./gradlew clean jarRelease` to build a jar file in the build\libs directory. Modify build.gradle to change the output file name.
