Off the cuff, that looks OK, except the resource for the menu should be
R.menu.options, with a menu resource file in res/menu/ in your project.

Sorry, you need to create menus here, not views, like this chunk,
extracted from the ApiDemos in the 0.9 SDK:
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";>
Check out ApiDemos/src/com/android/samples/app/MenuInflateFromXml.java
for an example of menu inflation in action. The associated menus are
defined in res/menu/ in the ApiDemos.

Nope. Your onCreateOptionsMenu() should be called when the user presses
the Menu button.
In fact, the aforementioned sample makes it seem like
onCreateOptionsMenu() will be called on every Menu button push; I
thought the Menu from onCreateOptionsMenu() was cached. I'll have to dig
into this some more sometime soonish...

I don't think that's an option anymore, perhaps in a drive to simplify
the API. Besides, you wouldn't be able to inflate a reference to a
Runnable very easily.

Thanks a lot, Mark! Now, I'm going to review all this code/tips you passed and try to put it down in the example. I'll comment back here. P.S: When will be the next version of your book?

As always, the update is free for subscribers. The print edition won't be revised until sometime after the 1.0 SDK ships, hardware is available, and all that good stuff. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Warescription: All titles, revisions, & ebook formats, just $35/year --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

Starting with the 0.9 SDK, you cannot load static files off the phone
(or, apparently, SD cards) into WebView. The stated reason is security.
You can attempt to read the file in yourself and use loadData() instead
of loadUrl() to put the information into the WebView, though it appears
that approach has limitations when it comes to links and image references.

[android-beginners] Simple View problem. can't add children to the main View?
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
RelativeLayout mainView =
(RelativeLayout)findViewById(R.id.mainWindow);
AbsoluteLayout analogArea =
(AbsoluteLayout)findViewById(R.id.analogArea);
mainView.addView(analogArea, analogArea.getLayoutParams());
}
the error occurs at addView. Why can't I add a child view to the main
RelativeLayout view? Should I be doing this in a different manner?
also a general question. Should I add all my views to the mainWindow
view and mark them as visible=false, or add them in the manner above
as needed? at some point I would like to cleanly animate the subViews
changing locations as they toggle their visibility.
