package com.zla.android;

import java.util.HashMap;
import android.app.Application;
import com.google.android.gms.analytics.GoogleAnalytics;
import com.google.android.gms.analytics.Tracker;
import com.zla.android.R;

public class ApplicationTrackers extends Application{

	private static final String PROPERTY_ID = "UA-XXXXXXXX-2";

	public enum TrackerName {
		APP_TRACKER, // Tracker used only in this app.
		GLOBAL_TRACKER, // Tracker used by all the apps from a company. eg: roll-up tracking.
		ECOMMERCE_TRACKER, // Tracker used by all ecommerce transactions from a company.
	}
	HashMap<TrackerName, Tracker> mTrackers = new HashMap<TrackerName, Tracker>();
	
	synchronized Tracker getTracker(TrackerName trackerId) {
		if (!mTrackers.containsKey(trackerId)) {			
			GoogleAnalytics analytics = GoogleAnalytics.getInstance(this);
			Tracker t = (trackerId == TrackerName.APP_TRACKER) ? analytics.newTracker(PROPERTY_ID)
					: (trackerId == TrackerName.GLOBAL_TRACKER) ? analytics.newTracker(R.xml.global_tracker)
					: analytics.newTracker(R.xml.ecommerce_tracker);
			mTrackers.put(trackerId, t);
