Re: [android-developers] Re: Where in code would i resize an image taken using intent?
Daniel,
In my case, the large image is read from storage resized then saved to
storage.

[android-developers] Re: Choreographer regularly skipping frames during OpenGL Render
Thanks for the response, Doug, but we're talking about two different
things. I'm not referring to the errors that show up the log tagged
Choreographer when the frame warning limit is triggered on the main thread.
I'm talking about actually using the Choreographer API to render OpenGL
content locked to VSYNC. These delays are on the rendering threads. While
I understand frames dropping periodically when the system is servicing
other work, the inability to manage even a few second without skipping
several VSYNC intervals indicates to me that something else is wrong with
the GL code.
Thanks again,

[android-developers] Choreographer regularly skipping frames during OpenGL Render
Hello all -
I am working on an application that is using Choreographer and OpenGL to
render flash patterns on the display. Our GL calls are quite simple,
simply toggling the display back and forth between white and black using
glClearColor() based on the frame time and status of the pattern we want to
apply. The timing of this pattern if very critical, and I am having severe
issues getting consistent behavior out of the timing pulses we received
from Choreographer to do the rendering.
For simplicity sake, I have basically copied the Basic Dream application in
AOSP, so 95% of my code looks exactly like this sample:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/screensavers/Basic/+/master
Our only change is that, where they call mSquare.draw() inside of
doFrame(), we have another method called drawFrame() that does the
following:
private void drawFrame() {
final boolean nextBit = mPattern[mIndex];
if (nextBit) {
glClearColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
} else {
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
}
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
return true;
}
However, for the purposes of this discussion, you can see the *exact same
behavior* by simply running the AOSP sample as an application (i.e.
changing the Colors class from a DreamService to a launcher Activity).
The problem is that on a regular basis (at least once per second, often
many times), the debug logging returns that the frame callback took 33ms
(instead of 16ms), and in many cases 50ms+! I can understand skipping a
rare frame here or there, but skipping 3-4 frames at once seems like I'm
missing something big here. Not all devices do this, but high-end devices
like the Nexus 5 and GS4 do. Devices we've tested like the Note 3, GS3,
and Moto X don't seem to do so nearly as often. Example typical logcat
over a period of 30 seconds:

Re: [android-developers] Using ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT for editing files
Thanks for the thoughts, Jeff. I understand your reasoning, so perhaps the best course of action is to modify the example documentation. The "Edit a document" section of the SAF Guide (https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider.html#edit) states that to "edit a text document in place", the correct choice is ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT. Based on what you are saying, since ACTION_CREATE_DOCUMENT allows you to pick an existing file, that is the better choice for "in place editing". The guide should probably either be changed to reflect ACTION_CREATE_DOCUMENT for editing, or to indicate that using ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT should include a branch check on FLAG_SUPPORTS_WRITE to determine if the edit can happen in place, or if ACTION_CREATE_DOCUMENT will need to be used anyway to create a new file for the edit changes.

[android-developers] Using ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT for editing files
As far as I can tell from the documentation and testing with the new
Storage Access Framework and Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT, there doesn't
seem to be a way (via an extra or otherwise) to pass with the Intent
request to open a document to only return documents from providers that
support writing (i.e. have FLAG_SUPPORTS_WRITE set). Instead, we are
forced to check a document selection made by the user (via a metadata
query) to determine if the document supports write before we attempt to
open an OutputStream or ParcelFileDescriptor in "w" mode. Is this correct,
or have I overlooked something?
This seems to be a large missing piece in the new Storage Access Framework
when attempting to allow a user to open an existing document to be edited
as it forces the user to make a selection first, then have us check if they
can write, throw and error if they cannot, and force them to pick again.
Furthermore, we cannot say that it is uncommon for documents providers not
to support writing, because even the system media documents provider (i.e.
the source for images/videos) does not support write and will throw and
IllegalArgumentException ("Media is read-only") when one attempts to write
to one of its files (as an image editing app, the most common example used
in the docs, would attempt to do). Is there a proper method with the new
SAF of limiting selections to writable providers only?
Feedback appreciated for anything I may have missed here. As it stands,
suggesting that developers use ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT for in-place editing
doesn't seem like a viable approach.

[android-developers] Re: Deep sleep after 1 hour?
Does the app do anything else other than ping the server? Best way to approach this really would be to set an alarm which fires every 30 seconds, when you receive the alarm take a partial wakelock and fire a service to perform the ping, this service should also take and release a wakelock whilst performing the ping.

[android-developers] Re: Cannot get the initial SDK setup working, nightmare
Using the AVD tool (inside Eclipse, menu "Window" -> "Android Virtual Device Manager"), create at least one virtual device. See http://developer.android.com/tools/devices/index.html After you have a virtual device created, start it by selecting it in the list (in AVD manager) then click the "Start" button. Note: depending on your computer, it may take a while for the emulator to start. After you see the emulator window and the android virtual device is fully booted, click around to see how it works (it is slightly different than a real device). With the emulator running, right click on your android project and select "Run as" -> "Android application". You may be asked to select a device (pick the AVD you just created). I find it easier to run my android project on my phone (connected via usb).

Re: [android-developers] Efficient Tablet Resource Selection
Hey Mark - Apologies, I misspoke on the newer devices. That part of the equation does work as expected for 3.2+ devices since smalles width is a higher priority selector. You make a valid point about older devices with a single qualifier and how eliminating just flags the device didn't understand rather than the whole directory would make the resources look like default resources in that case, and cause overlap in others. It makes sense why it doesn't work the way I had hoped. The larger problem this creates is becoming more notable as higher resolution, larger screen phones become available. The biggest issue with the "5 directory" solution I posted above is that it allows newer handset devices that understand they are smaller than 600dp, but are physically large enough to report "large" will now drop into the wrong bucket (i.e the upcoming Droid DNA). The hope was that by combining the two into a single directory we could reduce code duplication and close those loopholes, but I'm not sure a solution exists here. Perhaps the only true is answer is two APKs on each side of the division line. Or maybe eliminating "large" as an option...if it's pre-3.2 and not a 10" tablet perhaps it deserves to run the same UI as the handset... If only there was a market qualifier to mask out specific versions so we could support 2.2 - 4.1 with a single APK, just excluding 3.0 and 3.1 ;p Dare to dream...

[android-developers] Efficient Tablet Resource Selection
I am trying to develop an efficient method of including resource qualifiers to appropriately select the layouts (and other resources really) for handsets, small tablets, and large tablets. To properly support devices on both sides of Android 3.2, when smallest width was introduced, I had hoped to be able to create a hierarchy like so: res/layout/ + Default and handset-specific layouts res/layout-sw600dp-large/ + Small Tablet assets, where necessary res/layout-sw720dp-xlarge/ + Large Tablet assets, where necessary However, constructing a simple test application in this manner reveals that the concept won't work. All devices load the default resources, regardless of their OS version and display configuration. The primary point of this method is to eliminate the duplication that would otherwise be required to place the "sw600dp" asset and "large" asset (which are the same) into separate directories. Even aliasing a single layout into the two directories represents a duplication of code. To support older devices, it would be nice to continue to use just the old qualifiers, but newer handset devices with larger screens are starting to creep into the "large" category, forcing the use of smallest width where available. So my first question here is: I know my original idea does not work, but I want to know WHY it doesn't work?? In my mind, the old devices that don't understand the "sw" qualifier should just ignore its existence and the two directories should just look like "large" and "xlarge". On the other side, with new devices, the "sw" qualifier should take precedence so the "large" and "xlarge" should become irrelevant. As a result, the method with the least code duplication that I can come up with is as follows: res/layout/ + All layout assets, with tablet specific names in cases where necessary res/values-sw600dp/ + Aliases to apply small tablet layouts with the default name res/values-large/ + Same aliases to apply small tablet layouts with the default name res/values-sw720dp/ + Aliases to apply large tablet layouts with the default name res/values-xlarge/ + Same aliases to apply large tablet layouts with the default name This reduces the duplication to at least one line in two places rather than copying an entire file. Does anyone know of a method that works that would clean this up even further? Thanks, -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Help with bluetooth printing Please
Can Somebody help please? I think I have tried every app available for bluetooth printing and have pulled all my hair out now ,The problem is. I have installed printer share onto my HTC phone which is running android 2.3.5 and on my Samsung tablet galaxy tab 2 which is running android 4.0.4. and printing on a bluetooth HP deskjet 450 it all works fine when printing from my HTC phone but when trying to print from the tablet it starts to print and then a message comes up: *software caused connection abort*? It seams the samsung tablets sends the information too quick to the print. When printing from HTC phone when it is sending information to the printer the percentage numbers go up slower than when sending from Samsung which makes me think why it is aborting?

In linux for example you can use an install script

I don't like it that the app itself has to do install tasks

Re: [android-developers] Messenger from Remote Service Causing Memory Leak
Dianne - Thanks so much for the insight! That seems very much to be the case because if I force a GC through DDMS on the remote process, all those objects in the application process finally get released.

Your point is well taken about the design issue; this statement looks to describe my application exactly. The service has so few objects it rarely ever triggers GC, but it is in control of all the other objects in my application process. I will take a look at this and the workaround you proposed as well.

[android-developers] Messenger from Remote Service Causing Memory Leak
I have an application that communicates with a Service in a remote process
using the Messengerinterface. Here is the basic architecture of how things
are set up:
- The application generates several "Operation" objects that require
access to the service.
- Each "Operation" contains a Handler wrapped in a Messenger used as a
callback receive the response data back from the Service
- When the operation executes, it wraps its Messenger into an Intent and
calls startService() to pass the message to the remote service
- The remote service does some work based on the parameters of the Intent
and
then returns the response by sending a Message to the Messenger for that
operation.
Here is the basic code present in the operation:
public class SessionOperation {
/* ... */
public void runOperation() {
Intent serviceIntent = new Intent(SERVICE_ACTION);
/* Add some other extras specific to each operation */
serviceIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, replyMessenger);
context.startService(serviceIntent);
}
private Handler mAckHandler = new Handler() {
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
//Process the service's response
}
};
protected Messenger replyMessenger = new Messenger(mAckHandler);
}
And a basic snippet of how the service is structured:
public class WorkService extends Service {
private ServiceHandler mServiceHandler;
private final class ServiceHandler extends Handler {
public ServiceHandler(Looper looper) {
super(looper);
}
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
onHandleIntent((Intent)msg.obj);
}
}
@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
//If intent has a message, queue it up
Message msg = mServiceHandler.obtainMessage();
msg.obj = intent;
mServiceHandler.sendMessage(msg);
return START_STICKY;
}
private void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
Messenger replyTarget = intent.getParcelableExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL);
/* Do some work */
Message delivery = Message.obtain(...);
replyTarget.send(delivery);
}
}
This all works fantastically well. I can send tons of operations from
several different applications to the same service and they all process and
send their response to just the right place. However...
I noticed that if the application ran long enough and with enough activity
it would crash with anOutOfMemoryError. Upon looking at the HPROF data in
MAT, I noticed that all these operations where staying in memory, and they
were held hostage from the Garbage Collector because of theMessenger.
Apparently, the Messenger instance is creating a long-term native
connection to Binder that counts as a GC Root, which is keeping each
"Operation" object in memory indefinitely.
[image: MAT Trace Example]
Does anyone know if there is a way to clear or disable the Messenger when
the "Operation" is over so it doesn't create this memory leak?
Is there perhaps a better way to implement the IPC to the Servicein the
same fashion, so that multiple disparate objects can make a request and get
a result asynchronously? I'm not convinced that just switching to using a
bound service implementation will solve this issue as I would will need the
Messenger to process the callback.

[android-developers] Re: ViewPager and setClipChildren(false)
Thesalan -
Calling setLayerType() on just the View will work, but you have to do it on
the correct view. In this case, the issue that doesn't work with hardware
acceleration is the parent ViewGroup clipping its children, so the
PagerContainer in the example is the view that you need to call it on, not
the ViewPager itself. If you modify PagerContainer.java in the gist like
so:
private void init() {
setClipChildren(false);
setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);
}
You should be able to enable hardware acceleration in your manifest and the
pager code will still work as expected. I will update the gist example
when I have a spare moment with some discussion, and I have starred the
issue Mark created (you should do the same).

This definitely does help, but only for 1-2 times; then I have to move the port again. This is definitely faster than rebooting the devices, though, so this will be my new go-to workaround. It just feels like there's a bug somewhere in how it picks up connected devices, or how it reads the enumeration info in the new Mac OS.

[android-developers] ADB and Mountain Lion Issues
I noticed that, as soon as I upgraded to Mac OS Mountain Lion (10.8) I have been unable to reliably get any of my devices to connect with ADB (Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, HTC EVO 4G, just to name a few). It can take upwards of 10-15 cable re-plugs, re-starts of the ADB server, and toggling USB Debugging on the device before it finally shows up.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Renderscript Deprecated
To add a little more context to the deprecation notice (I think the choice of the word "experimental" is a little misleading, sorry for the confusion): The feedback we got from internal and external app developers was that they preferred to use OpenGL directly because of familiarity & portability either through our Java bindings or NDK. In contrast, we do see interest in the compute API of Renderscript. Hence we've decided to no longer evolve the RS graphics APIs (hence deprecation notice) and instead focus on building out Renderscript's GPU-compute support and developing Renderscript further especially for applications such as image processing.

[android-developers] Using searchview in ActionBar can't save state between rotation because onCreateOptionsMenu called twice
Has anyone seen this behavior in ICS? What's happening is if a fragment is participating in the options menu for an activity both the activity's and fragments onCreateOptionsMenu is being called twice when the phone is rotated but only once when the activity is initially started. (See my linked stackoverflow.com question below for complete code and output) The bigger problem is that if a fragment adds a SearchView to the options menu, the SearchView can't remember it's state when the phone is rotated. It's no longer has any text in the textview after the rotation. If the activity uses a searchview, the state is saved correctly when rotated. I've seen this on the emulator running ICS 4.0 (API 14) and 4.0.3 (API 15) and also Verizon Galaxy Nexus running 4.0.4 build IMM76K. I can't figure out what's causing the onCreateOptionsMenu to be called twice. It doesn't make sense that this would be the normal way to create the options menu when rotating the phone. Maybe I'm doing something wrong to cause this? or I need to handle the onCreateOptionsMenu differently when the phone state is changed. Here's my question on stack overflow. This is complete with example code and log output of what I'm seeing. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11003941/android-oncreateoptionsmenu-called-twice-when-restoring-state#comment14380762_11003941 Thanks ahead of time for any help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Is there a way to change GridView zigzag direction and enforce column or row move?
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/GridView.html
The default way the elements of the array is put in a GridView is
zigzagging left-right-down.
e.g. array {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} becomes
by default (with columns fixed to 3)
1,2,3
4,5,6
7,8,9
10
Is there a way to get to zigzag up-down-right (with rows fixed to 3)?
1,4,7,10
2,5,8
3,6,9
Also I like to be able to enforce a column move in getView. Free
zigzag style: No fixed number of columns columns or rows:
For instance in free up-down-right zigzag
1,5,6,9
2, 7,10
3, 8
4
In free left-right-down zigzag
1,2
3
4,5,6,7
8,9,10
And then in getView with a command tell the GridView to go to the next
column or row.
I now kind of solved it with row and column data in a database table,
sort it in a query and inserting dummy elements to the array to get
the right layout, but I wonder if there is a more direct and efficient
way to this. The database is also larger and filled with presentation
data which is undesirable.
e.g. in free up-down-right zigzag
I have 10 domain data elements but with inserting 6 dummy elements the
array size is increased to 16.
It would be more efficient to keep the array size 10.
Or are there alternative views which do this job better?

Hello, it seems that the graphical layout editor of eclipse-adt only renders properly if the xml layout file is in the folder \res\layout I am using: Eclipse 3.7.1 maintenance build M20111214-1406 JDK6_30 eclipse-adt plugin ADT 16.0.1 How can I make it work independent of the location of the folder e.g. \src\main\res\layout I see the graphical layout tab but is doesn't render well Same if I copy res to gen e.g. \src\main\res\layout and open an layout xml file with Open With Android Layout Editor I do see Graphical Layout tab but widgets of the graphical layout editor are uninitialized and layout of the xml file is not rendered. Can this be done by configuration or is it a bug/ "not yet implemented feature" in the eclipse-adt plugin? Any hints/ideas are welcome. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] ViewRoot and the repaint process
I'd like to get pixel access to the Bitmap to be able to transmit graphics over the wire. It seems this could be possible via the Canvas Bitmap. But since ViewRoot is final I'm not sure "where" I can intercept this information in the drawing process. Is there an appropriate spot in the rendering processes where I can grab pixels from the Bitmap for the current View Tree?

Hi,
I am using an add-on in my app.
When I try to start an activity defined in the add-on package, it
complains ActivityNotFoundException:

});
}
the add-on is in the java build path.
When I ran the app, I got error from log cat:

[android-developers] Re: Fragments duplicated on config change
As is typical, noticed the r2 release of the compatibility library right after I posted this! That has fixed the duplication issue, however I'm still wondering why each fragment instance inflated from setContentView gets calls to onStart(), onStop(), then onStart() again? Shouldn't there be only a single call to onStart()? -dave On May 22, 5:43 pm, Dave Johnston wrote: > I'm encountering a peculiar issue with the user of FragmentActivity. > > In my test app, my FragmentActivity's onCreate method calls > setContentView, which inflates a simple layout consisting of a single > Fragment. > > However, I'm finding that when the device is rotated, this process > causes additional Fragments to be created, such that after one > rotation there are two Fragment instances, and after two rotations > there are three Fragment instances being created. > > I'm also unclear why, when this Activity is first launched, the > Fragment instance created via setContentView() appears to be started, > stopped, and then started again. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Fragments duplicated on config change
I'm encountering a peculiar issue with the user of FragmentActivity. In my test app, my FragmentActivity's onCreate method calls setContentView, which inflates a simple layout consisting of a single Fragment. However, I'm finding that when the device is rotated, this process causes additional Fragments to be created, such that after one rotation there are two Fragment instances, and after two rotations there are three Fragment instances being created. I'm also unclear why, when this Activity is first launched, the Fragment instance created via setContentView() appears to be started, stopped, and then started again. Below is a logcat demonstrating the issue (hashCodes in brackets). Should fragments simply not be inflated via setContentView? *** App launched *** 05-22 17:39:13.044: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestActivity(1080185976).onStart() 05-22 17:39:13.044: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080196160).onStart() 05-22 17:39:13.044: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080196160).onStop() 05-22 17:39:13.044: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080196160).onStart() *** Device rotated (1) *** 05-22 17:39:17.779: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestActivity(1080185976).onStop() 05-22 17:39:17.779: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080196160).onStop() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestActivity(1080209384).onStart() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080211584).onStart() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080223880).onStart() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080211584).onStop() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080223880).onStop() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080211584).onStart() 05-22 17:39:17.799: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080223880).onStart() *** Device rotated (2) *** 05-22 17:39:19.500: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestActivity(1080209384).onStop() 05-22 17:39:19.500: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080211584).onStop() 05-22 17:39:19.500: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080223880).onStop() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestActivity(1080235792).onStart() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080238000).onStart() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080238336).onStart() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080252384).onStart() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080238000).onStop() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080238336).onStop() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080252384).onStop() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080238000).onStart() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080238336).onStart() 05-22 17:39:19.520: VERBOSE/DupeFrag(10519): TestFragment(1080252384).onStart() -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

A user of mine is encountering a crash every time they start my application: java.lang.VerifyError: android.support.v4.app.FragmentManagerImpl at android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity.(SourceFile:87) (...) Their phone is a Sony Ericsson U20i (Xperia X10 Mini Pro) running Android 1.6.

What is the correct way to pass arguments to a Fragment after inflation (for example, after calling setContentView)? Attempting to call setArguments() after setContentView() results in "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment already active". Is it simply preferable to instantiate and add Fragments via code, rather than use fragment inflation from an XML layout? -dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Honeycomb introduced the DialogFragment class for producing dialogs.

[android-developers] Using v4 Fragments with v11 ActionBar tabs
I'm having trouble implementing ActionBar tabs whilst also using backward-compatible Fragments (with the compatibility package). The main issue being that ActionBar.TabListener expects android.app.Fragment, and my Fragment classes inherit from android.support.v4.app.Fragment. Therefore I can't use my Fragments with the ActionBar on 3.0-and-later devices. Anyone have any ideas how I can solve or work around this?

[android-developers] Need help with tabbed layout
I'm new to Android development so please bear with me. I have created
an app in WebOS and I'm keen to try and re-create for the Android
platform. I have tried to follow the tutorial for creating a tabbed
view and to some extent I have succeeded. However, the problem that I
am having is that when I switch from tab to tab any text or graphics
is overwritting the tab elements and not displaying below the tabs
themselves. I'm sure I've done something stupid that is easy to fix.
Here are the files that I have. I have my main class which extends
TabActivity. The code is as follows:
*package com.dtwconsulting.golfcaddie;
import android.app.TabActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.res.Resources;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuInflater;
import android.widget.TabHost;
public class GolfCaddie extends TabActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(*
*savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.**splashmain);
* *Resources res = getResources(); // Resource object to get
Drawables
TabHost tabHost = getTabHost(); // The activity TabHost
TabHost.TabSpec spec; // Resusable TabSpec for each tab
Intent intent; // Reusable Intent for each tab
* *// Create an Intent to launch an Activity for the tab (to be
reused)
intent = new Intent().setClass(this, MainActivity.class);
* *// Initialize a TabSpec for each tab and add it to the TabHost
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("main").**setIndicator("Main",
res.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_**tab_main))
.setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
* *// Do the same for the other tabs
intent = new Intent().setClass(this, PlayersActivity.class);
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("players").**setIndicator("Players",
res.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_**tab_players))
.setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
* *intent = new Intent().setClass(this, CoursesActivity.class);
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("courses").**setIndicator("Courses",
res.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_**tab_courses))
.setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
* *tabHost.setCurrentTab(0);
* *}
* *public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.main_**menu, menu);
return true;
}
}*
My R.layout.splashmain XML code is as follows:
*
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:id="@android:id/**tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_**parent"
android:layout_height="fill_**parent">
*
In addition to the above I have a class file for each tab and a layout
file for each tab too. To give an example of the main class and XML
layout file:
*package com.dtwconsulting.golfcaddie;
import android.app.Activity;* *
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {* *
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(**savedInstanceState);
* *setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
* *
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:layout_width="wrap_**content"
android:layout_height="fill_**parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="**true"
android:background="@drawable/**golfcaddie">
*
So, when this main tab is displayed the background image
(golfcaddie.png) completely displays on the entire screen over the top
of the tabs. I've tried playing around with things but all to no
avail. I either get the background overlaying the tabs, or I get
nothing at all. I suspect that I am just not grasping these layouts
and how they interact.
Any help/direction on this would be much appreciated, and perhaps I am
not even doing this the best way. I ended up Googling about doing a
tabbed view and was lead a little away from the Google docs.

spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("main").setIndicator("Main",
res.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_tab_main))
.setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
// Do the same for the other tabs
intent = new Intent().setClass(this, PlayersActivity.class);
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("players").setIndicator("Players",

res.getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_tab_courses))
.setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
tabHost.setCurrentTab(0);
}
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.main_menu, menu);
return true;
}
}
My R.layout.splashmain XML code is as follows:
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
In addition to the above I have a class file for each tab and a layout
file for each tab too. To give an example of the main class and XML
layout file:
package com.dtwconsulting.golfcaddie;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
android:background="@drawable/golfcaddie">
So, when this main tab is displayed the background image
(golfcaddie.png) completely displays on the entire screen over the top
of the tabs. I've tried playing around with things but all to no
avail. I either get the background overlaying the tabs, or I get
nothing at all. I suspect that I am just not grasping these layouts
and how they interact.
Any help/direction on this would be much appreciated, and perhaps I am
not even doing this the best way. I ended up Googling about doing a
tabbed view and was lead a little away from the Google docs.

[android-developers] Re: Handling touch events for dragging content when changing the orientation of the screen
Thanks for the response! No, my code is not rotating the drag
direction. I'm primary rotating the canvas the map is drawn on. I'm
not sure *how* to rotate the axes used by the touch event. Any
pointers on how to do this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks again,

[android-developers] Handling touch events for dragging content when changing the orientation of the screen
I have a map application using an in-house map engine on Android. I'm
working on a rotating Map view that rotates the map based on the
phone's orientation using the Sensor Service. All works fine with the
exception of dragging the map when the phone is pointing other than
North. For example, if the phone is facing West, dragging the Map up
still moves the Map to the South versus East as would be expected. I
assume translating the canvas is one possible solution but I'm
honestly not sure the correct way to do this to swap the axes without
disrupting the coordinate system needed by the map tiles.
Here is the code I'm using to rotate the Canvas:
public void dispatchDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
canvas.save(Canvas.MATRIX_SAVE_FLAG);
// mHeading is the orientation from the Sensor
canvas.rotate(-mHeading, origin[X],origin[Y]);
mCanvas.delegate = canvas;
super.dispatchDraw(mCanvas);
canvas.restore();
}
What is the best approach to make dragging the map consistent
regardless of the phones orientation? The sensormanager has a
"remapcoordinates()" method but it's not clear to me exactly how to
use it. I've searched the web and posted to StackOverflow to try and
figure this out...no luck so far. Any pointers would be greatly
appreciated! Thanks.

[android-developers] Question of using ksoap for android to call webservices
I am trying to develop an android application using our webservice. Here is the code: private String SOAP_ACTION= "http://.../TestFunction";; private String METHOD_NAME = "TestFunction"; private String NAMESPACE = "http://.../";; private String URL = "http://.../webservice.php";; SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME); SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11); envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request); HttpTransport androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransport(URL); androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope); The testfunction is a function without any parameters or return values. It is tested correctly using other applications. As long as calling to the last line of code, the emulator exited. I tried Eclipse, Ksoap2 in both Windows and Ubuntu. Can anyone help? Many thanks! Some small questions: 1) do i need to use "php?wsdl" in URL? 2) do i need to use explict IP address in URL? 3) should I use androidhttptransport? Is it in the ksoap for android? i downloaded but the JAR generates a compile error. 4) Is there any specific requirement for the webservices? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: guitar tuner
Yes, I realize there is an one on the market. In fact, I have that currently installed. But that's not my intention. My main objective is to understand the FFT and frequency analysis so that I can write something else. the guitar tuner is just a simple first step in my understanding. Bret, thanks for the advise. I do NOT have any experience with FFT. I take it it's an issue dealing with edge harmonics? In fact, pinpointing certain harmonics within the frequency is exactly what I need.

[android-developers] guitar tuner
I am looking for some help. I'm new to android, and java developement. I've got a pretty good handle on the basics, but I'm having an issue figuring out some more advanced operations. I'm working a guitar tuner, which is a stepping stone to a chromatic piano tuner. There is no public API for frequency analysis, so I'm thinking I need to write into code a Fast Fourier Transform, and I'll assume I need to import a different package for this. Once I display the frequency of any given note, I need it to reference it's offset to a pre-measured Mhz.

My problem is the vertical scrollbar at the right hand side of the panel comes cross with the gradient separator. I tried both vertical scrollbar types of SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_INSET, SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY for the flipper panel, but the vertical scrollbar always come cross the separator.

I'm testing out a web page on the Android 2.0 and 2.2 emulators, and some of the jQuery.ajax() requests that the app makes have slightly different behaviors regarding HTTP Authentication Headers. The server I'm making requests to requires basic authentication, and the ajax requests in 2.2 send the proper auth header. In 2.0, I am debugging with Fiddler, and it seems that the requests do not include the auth header, and the server rejects the request with a 401.2 error. I don't think it matters, but the server is running IIS 7. One interesting thing I noticed while debugging the web requests is that Android 2.2 makes two requests for each resource, whether or not it's an XHR. One does not contain the Auth header, and the second one does. In 2.0, it seems to make 2 requests for everything but XHR's: Here is the 2.2 header for the first XHR: GET http://192.168.1.111/sonar/mobileweb/sonar/views/week/init.ejs HTTP/1.1 Host: 192.168.1.111 Accept-Encoding: gzip Referer: http://192.168.1.111/sonar/mobileweb/sonar/sonar.html Accept-Language: en-US User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.2; en-us; sdk Build/ FRF91) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/ 533.1 Accept: text/plain, */* X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest Accept-Charset: utf-8, iso-8859-1, utf-16, *;q=0.7 The 2.2 header for the second XHR: GET http://192.168.1.111/sonar/mobileweb/sonar/views/week/init.ejs HTTP/1.1 Host: 192.168.1.111 Accept-Encoding: gzip Referer: http://192.168.1.111/sonar/mobileweb/sonar/sonar.html Accept-Language: en-US User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.2; en-us; sdk Build/ FRF91) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/ 533.1 Authorization: Basic cGFyaXZlZGFcZGF2aWQubW9ycmlzOjIzbkx2ZWxsbGw= Accept: text/plain, */* X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest Accept-Charset: utf-8, iso-8859-1, utf-16, *;q=0.7 And the 2.0 header: GET http://192.168.1.111/app/views/week/init.ejs HTTP/1.1 Host: 192.168.1.111 Accept-Encoding: gzip Referer: http://192.168.1.111/app/app.html Accept-Language: en-US User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.0; en-us; sdk Build/ ECLAIR) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/530.17 Accept: text/plain, */* X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest Accept-Charset: utf-8, iso-8859-1, utf-16, *;q=0.7 Notice that 2.0 (and 2.1) only makes the first request, recieves the 401 challenge, and then does not make the second request with the proper auth header. Has anyone experienced this behavior before? It is basically causing my app to not work at all in version 2.0. Version 2.1 seems to act the same as 2.0.
