Can I suggest adding links (perhaps not real hyperlinks, but conceptual links at least) from the API documentation to the relevant API examples?
I think you'd get a lot more value from the work you put into the API demos this way. Also, I'd concur with the recent comment, but not the tone, that a lot of the API demo classes are quite poorly named. Even if you know that there IS an API demo for what you want to find, it can quite difficult to locate it. Think of it as, the API demos could use a bit more product marketing to get them to their intended audience. :=) On Dec 30, 10:11 pm, Dianne Hackborn <hack...@android.com> wrote: > API demo > here:http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/examp... > > On Thu, Dec 30, 2010 at 10:09 PM, Stephan Wiesner < > testexpe...@googlemail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I want to read a txt file that is deployed with my application. > > The file is in the assets directory and I try to read it with: > > > String url = "file:///android_asset/text.txt"; > > InputStream instream = openFileInput(url); > > > This results however in: > > 12-31 07:05:46.638: DEBUG/GMAP(14396): Read > > error:java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File > > file:///android_asset/text.txt contains a path separator > > > So, where should I put the file or how should I read it? > > > Thanks, > > Stephan > > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > > Groups "Android Developers" group. > > To post to this group, send email to android-developers@googlegroups.com > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > > android-developers+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com<android-developers%2Bunsubs > > cr...@googlegroups.com> > > For more options, visit this group at > >http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers?hl=en > > -- > Dianne Hackborn > Android framework engineer > hack...@android.com > > Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to > provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.
