[android-beginners] Call method from Broadcast Receiver
Hi, Is it possible to call a method that finds a view by id and changes it, from a broadcast receiver? For example: I have the default class that extends Activity and contains a setContentView method. In the layout i have set as the contentView, i have a TextView. Then i have a method that should change the text to something, but this should be called from a broadcast receiver and not in the default class. But when the broadcast receiver-class extends BroadcastReceiver it cannot use the findViewById method because it requires the class to extend the Activiy class. I have tried to initialize the default class, but then the application stops unexpectedly when the broadcast receiver is called. How can i call the method? //Kaloer --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] How to get last added TextView of a ListView after ArrayAdapter.add()
Hi all! I'm doing the following inside a handleMessage() method of an Handler object: arrayAdapter.add(myMessage); System.out.println(listView.getChildCount()); I always get the expected numer (i.e. 1 after the first add() call) minus 1. I supposed it happens because the UI is not yet refreshed. I need to retrieve the last textview in order to change its drawable left property, but of course I cannot do it there. Is there any way to force the UI refresh, so the getChildCount() returns me what i need? Any alternative solutions?

2009/5/5 stevensli stevens...@gmail.com The version of Windows I am running is XP SP3, 32bit. Can this problem be solved by adjusting the configuation of the emulator？ Thanks! I'm just speculating at the moment, but I doubt it's related to the emulator's configuration. Essentially, the emulator doesn't deal very well with certain networking setups at the moment due to changes in its socket code that happened between 1.1 and 1.5. I suspect some interaction with the IPv6 localhost and a few other things. I could be wrong though, but I'll investigate.

But it doesn't! I run it in Eclipse. So, it compile, then the emulator starts, and under Settings-Localetext I see the new keyboard. But it does not show up when I click on a textbox. Only the regular on- screen keyboard appears. Am I missing something? I also looked at http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/ creating-input-method.html for details, but didn't see anything.

[android-beginners] How to make a Button repeat
Hi, Pretty new to Android, I am just wondering how to make a button 'repeat'. For example, if I touch and hold the button down, I would like an event to fire for the initial 'down' then, preferably after a little delay, I would like to get further 'down' or 'still down' events. The behavior I am after is much like the +/- buttons on the date widget in the API Demos - Views - Date Widget activities... press and hold the +, you get an initial increment, then after a short delay, it continues to increment.

[android-beginners] How to create and open an SQLite database? (Based on NotePad tutorial)
Hello - our dev team is looking into utilizing an SQLite DB as a means
to store data within our application. We've been following the
official dev guide's NotePad tutorial (http://d.android.com/guide/
tutorials/notepad/notepad-ex1.html) to accomplish this, but we're
stuck on Step 2: the preliminary creation of the database itself. We
aren't even concerned with inserting into and retrieving from the DB
yet.
Basically, we re-purposed the NoteDbAdapter.java file (renamed to
simply DbAdapter.java) to work with our main activity, called
LifeVault. When an instance of the DbAdapter class created within
LifeVault.java calls the open() function within DbAdapter.java,
however, the Android emulator just crashes and displays a message
along the lines of the process has stopped working and needs to
close.
The code doesn't have any compilation errors, and it's based on the
code from the official dev guide, so we're pretty perplexed as to why
this happens.
/**
DbAdapter.java
***/
package com.android.lifevault;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.SQLException;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.util.Log;
public class DbAdapter {
private static final String TAG = DbAdapter;
private DatabaseHelper mDbHelper;
private SQLiteDatabase mDb;
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = FVDB;
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE_USER = User;
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE_ACH = Ach;
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE_USER_ACH = User_Ach;
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
private final Context mCtx;
private static class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
DatabaseHelper(Context context) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
// Our db.execSQL statements for creating the three tables
live here
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int
newVersion) {
Log.w(TAG, Upgrading database from version + oldVersion
+ to
+ newVersion + , which will destroy all old
data);
db.execSQL(DROP TABLE IF EXISTS User_Ach);
db.execSQL(DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Ach);
db.execSQL(DROP TABLE IF EXISTS User);
onCreate(db);
}
}
/**
* Constructor - takes the context to allow the database to be
* opened/created
*/
public DbAdapter(Context ctx) {
this.mCtx = ctx;
}
/**
** Open the database - Here's where things get screwy.
**/
public DbAdapter open() throws SQLException {
mDbHelper = new DatabaseHelper(mCtx);
mDb = mDbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
return this;
}
public void close() {
mDbHelper.close();
}
}
/**
END DbAdapter.java
**/
/**
LifeVault.java
**/
package com.android.lifevault;
import com.android.lifevault.DbAdapter;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
public class LifeVault extends Activity {
private DbAdapter mDbHelper;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
mDbHelper = new DbAdapter(this);
mDbHelper.open(); // - Program crashes here
setContentView(R.layout.main);
/**The rest of the code**/
}
}
/
END LifeVault.java
/
- Am I using the Context class incorrectly?
- Am I missing a library that the app needs to recognize the
getWritableDatabase() funciton?
Those are my two best guesses. I'm so close I can taste it!
Hopefully someone can help me see this answer that's probably right in
front of my face. Thank you; the help is greatly appreciated.

Kevin J. Brooks wrote: That is solved, but when I use the emulator and click on an item in the list, I the item does not stay clicked. What do I need to do? Rethink your perceptions of UIs. Android operates in two modes: touch mode and...ummm...non-touch mode. Non-touch mode is when you use the trackball or D-pad for navigation. In that mode, a ListView row stays highlighted, to indicate where you are and where you will move on the next trackball/D-pad selection. Touch mode is when you tap on the touchscreen (or, in the emulator, click on the screen with the mouse). In that mode, rows are briefly highlighted to show where you tapped, but they do not stay highlighted. The expectation is that any ListActivity should override onListClick() and actually do something when the user taps a row, such as launch another activity. This seems unintuitive when you are only working with the emulator, and particularly when you are creating your first Android apps. Over time, and once you start seeing your work on an actual Android device, you get used to it.

I am not a Vista user, but the android.bat exist in the android-sdk- windows-1.5_r1\tools.

Just some guesses: 1. what version of SDK do you use? 1.5? or still 1.1? did you set the right path in the eclipse setting? 2. did you create the virtual device for the simulation?

[android-beginners] Re: distributing an app packaged with just emulator
Hi Raphael, Thanks - yes, actually I just upgraded to the latest SDK and was able to do the install over the browser. That also allowed me to create the bundle I needed. Many thanks CHEERS SAM On May 2, 8:41 am, Raphael r...@android.com wrote: Are you using the final 1.5 SDK or the 1.5 preview one? I just tried installing an app on the emulator using the web browser and it installed fine. R/ 2009/4/28 tansaku tans...@gmail.com: Hi Jack, Many thanks for that suggestion, however even after sudo killall adb the emulator does not show up in the list of devices. The web download idea is also a good one, and I thought I had got it to work after creating an sdcard image for the emulator, but when I tried to run the downloaded app, I got a message: Install blocked. For security, your phone is set to block installations of applications not sourced in Android Market. With two buttons: Settings and Cancel - clicking on Settings causes an error. I did some web searching, but can't immediately see any way round this ...

One suggestion is that you can place you app on a web server and your friends should be able to download/install it via the emulator browser.

The reason I want to do this is that I have some friends who don't have android phones, but I'd like them to be able to play with my app so that they can give me feedback. I've previously sent them screen casts, but I'd really like them to be able to get interactive with the app. Now I could ask them to get all installed with the whole android framework, eclipse etc,. but some of them are not so technical. Ideally what I'd like to be able to do is create a package that is the android emulator with my app and perhaps 1 or 2 other related apps pre-installed, so that they can download it, open it and run it interactively on their computers? Has anyone ever tried this? So far I found that I can run the emulator standalone, and I assume I could probably send them just that and it would run. However the adb tool is needed to install apps. I could send them that too, and ask the to run an 'adb install myapp.apk' from the command line, but at the moment I can't even seem to do that myself. Running the emulator standalone, the adb tool can't seem to see it: samuel-josephs-computer-2:tools samueljoseph$ sudo ./adb devices List of devices attached I just get no list of devices ... I have previously used the adb tool to install apk files, but that is after I had started the emulator from eclipse - of course even then I always have to restart eclipse and the emulator two or three times before I can get the connection (I am on OSX 10.5.6., eclipse 3.4.1) ... Any suggestions greatly appreciated. CHEERS SAM --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.
