Collecting weather forecast data
Now that our application's user interface is completed, we can proceed to implement the logic to store the user's location while fetching weather data from the RESTful web service. This implementation could be organized in the following steps:
Update the

private static final String CURRENT_PRESET = "__CURRENT__"; private static final String CURRENT_LOCATION = "__LOCATION__";
At the bottom of the class, add the following setter to store the given location:
public static void setLocation(Context ctx, String name...
