[android-beginners] Re: The use of Eclipse for android development
One thing that the Eclipse ADT plug-in will provide you is automated workflow. There's a wizard to create and export a project. Custom editors will help you write some of those Android-specific XML file. Not sure how to declare an Activity in your manifest? Just use the editors, read a few tooltip, see what fields are available, then a few clicks and you're done. Much easier than reading the doc to figure out the name of the XML nodes/attributes. Same thing for debugging. Even the first time, with no prior setup, this is as easy as choosing a menu option to start a "debug launch". It amuses me to hear Faber mention he hasn't needed to use DDMS to debug yet :) DDMS is pivotal to debug on Android. But the Eclipse plug-in embeds DDMS and does all the dirty work for you. Using ADT is using DDMS, you just don't know it. In the end, except for the custom editors found only in ADT, everything you do in Eclipse can be done with command line tools (or at least non IDE tools). - activityCreator to create a project skeleton and its build script - Ant to build - DDMS to help you connect a debugger (unfortunately DDMS is not a command line tool at this point) - Any Java debugger able to do remote debugging. Some tools (traceview, hierarchyviewer, draw9path) are actually not integrated in Eclipse at this point. Even when they become integrated, the standalone versions will still exist. Eclipse is certainly our preferred way (ie this is were we focus our energy to create an all-in-one environment), but it is not our goal to force developers to use Eclipse.

[android-beginners] Re: Problems with HttpClient, HttpGet and HttpResponse ...
Looks like I answered my own question :)
I allowed Eclipse to auto correct my code, and it added a try - catch
routine:
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("http://www.google.com";);
try {
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget);
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
My code complies now, so I can go back to exploring :)

[android-beginners] Run with Eclipse
Hello,I`m new with Eclipse and I have got some questions about it.
I`ve already installed Eclipse GANYMEDE with Android.
And on the page http://code.google.com/android/intro/hello-android.html
you can see how to make a Hello-Android project.
But if I edit HelloAndroid.java with this code :
package com.android.hello;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText("Hello, Android");
setContentView(tv);
}
}
then there`s always an error massage,like this:
Your project contains error(s),please fix them before running your
application.
Does anyone konow why it`s so?
Please answer me!!!
Thank you in advance!

[android-beginners] programmatically send email with data file attachment
Hello to everybody, i am writing a small program which creates a text file on the external storage (microSD card). Now i want to send this small file via email (asking the user which account to use). I read the sdk docs and I found that with an Intent and this action (http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/content/ Intent.html#ACTION_SENDTO) I can write an email. But I cannot find any EXTRA_ to specify an attachment. I tried with EXTRA_STREAM and an open FileInputStream pointing to the txt file, but when I see (for example) gmail popping out (basic email writing works) there is no attachment in the "pre-built" email. I know this is possible because I installed an application from the market (Voice Recorder) that already does it. I would want to reproduce its behaviour. P.S. Another way to achieve my goal would be to upload via HTTP the file to a webserver... maybe it's simpler? anyone can give me an example or show me a JAVA library that implements this functionality??

[android-beginners] Android and Windows Host file
I am trying to develop an Android app that connects to a tomcat web service and want to be able to load it off my local machine. In my host file on my windows dev machine I have the service's URL defined and tomcat running, however when i try to load the page it says it cannot find it. I read that the Android emulator is not setup to use the host file. Is there a way I can get it to use the host file, or add the url entry to android so it will connect to the server hosted on the same machine the emulator is hosted on.

[android-beginners] Re: The use of Eclipse for android development
Yeah, Eclipse is pretty dense to learn, but that's because it does just about everything. Good news is it's all there in the menus, so if you poke around you can get the hang of it pretty quick. Well worth it too... next time you need to rename a method that's accessed all over the place, just look for "Refactor". You'll love it... ;-) Ian --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

Thanks Ralf and Ian. I too use vi so it's good to know that it works well for you. I've started using it yesterday and compiled and ran the source demos fine.

Guess I'll start learning it.

[android-beginners] Re: The use of Eclipse for android development
Does vi: * compile your code as you type it in * highlight errors and give you two-click auto-fix * auto-complete names of classes and methods in distant libraries * show you the documentation for a function in a popup as soon as you type the name * run your code on the device * let you stop the program and see variable states * take screenshots off the device etc and much much more. Seriously, I've been a vi user (indeed addict) for 27 years, I resisted the Emacs trend for as long as I could, but Eclipse is so much more. It just takes care of an amazing amount of stuff that you otherwise have to do by hand. You will simply be way more productive, and spend your time thinking about the code instead of sifting through compiler output dumps. Eclipse isn't perfect, but it's pretty darned good, and Android is very well integrated into it. (BTW, I'm using Europa, not Ganymede (the latest). Don't know if that means anything, I'm running on a pre-release OS, and I found Europa more stable.)

[android-beginners] Re: Problem with Sound
NO,
Its not working.
It gives this kind of error..
"The Method create (Context, int) in the type Mediaplayer is not
applicable for the arguments (A, int)..
I think the problem is class A is not extended from Activity class.
That's why its not working. So I don't know how to play sound in this
scenario. Because I got sound in another class which is extended from
Activity Class.
If u can suggest me any code which has scenario like me, I might solve
my problem.
Thanks for your help..

[android-beginners] Re: The use of Eclipse for android development
Eclipse + ADT provides with a comfortable & customizable IDE with integrated debugging. There are wizards to create new projects, export apks and automatic deployment to your emulator or devices. There's a specific "ddms" view to view log output and other debug properties. You can do all of this using command-line tools. To compile using the command line you need to use "ant", which means other Java IDEs can invoke the ant target out of the box. Some people program using Emacs or VI, so really anything goes. Some say you could even use real player, although it might be easier with some skills to use dd and a magnet.
