[android-beginners] Re: how to update a listview
You have to change the data structure that stores the data for the listView and then call notifyDataSetChange(); Let;s say you are using and ArrayList lst, you would do something like this: public void getRemoteData() { // .. get data and put it in the array list adapter.notifyDataSetChange(); } And, it will update itself.

I don't know what's causing the error in your code but it seems like you are using an older version of Android (maybe older than 1.0).

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK For Beginners?
Hmm, I wanted to add that the book I referenced has errors in it. I'm working on the relative alignment section and it references android:layout_toRight when it should be toRightOf. I tried it in both 1.1 and 1.5 to be sure, and I double checked the example. Oh well, pressing on. I did notice in an article elsewhere that it is possible to actually replace the Android main UI, and I've seen videos supposedly of doing this. Are there any guides on doing that? I've set myself a lofty goal for my first complete project. Not that I necessarily feel the need to replace the default UI, I just want to do it so that I know I can do it. Also I'm a fan of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

[android-beginners] Re: 'if' sentences please help
This is a Java mistake that is common. By "common" I mean "one I make all the frickin time." You should use String.equals() instead, like if (!codedate.equals("220809")) { If you just use the != operator then the JVM will compare the string pointer addresses, not their values.

I code in Ruby when I'm not working on Android. All Java code is ugly. ;-) There are many patterns you can use to help organize an activity. Here are two that I use, for what that's worth: 1. I sometimes break out the code that binds data to Views for rows in a ListView into a separate "wrapper" class, as described here: http://commonsware.com/Android/excerpt.pdf 2.

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK For Beginners?
I have actually found a resource that is working well for me. It's a book called The Busy Coder's guide to Android. This explains a lot more (although not everything) and I find myself starting to learn how things work. I did go through andbook and found it to be either badly typed or mis-translated and very lacking in explanations and examples (I got the latest version right off the site). Also it ends very abruptly leading me to believe it has not even been proof read yet, let alone finished. Basically, while I am finding the resources and examples I need, I do feel my situation is still fairly common and since my position has often been the guy who stumbles along and then teaches others once he figures it out, I expect I'll be creating or helping to create total beginners' content once I get going.

Most of the books/tutorials that I have seen assume some level of Java experience. You don't need tons of Java to get going with Android, but you do need to know Java's take on OO (classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism), popular classes in java.lang/java.io/java.util, etc. Conversely, things you specifically don't need to know include: -- any existing Java UI framework (Swing, SWT, JavaME) or widget libraries for those frameworks (Glazed Lists, etc.) -- any server-side Java frameworks (JavaEE, servlets, etc.) -- JDBC (Android ships with SQLite and has a thin non-JDBC interface to it) -- the enterprise-y frameworks (JAX-this, WS-that, etc.) The API reference (a.k.a., class library) on the Android developer site and in the SDK is the definitive list of what is built into Android and is accessible from your projects: http://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html > Barring that, is there a tutorial/set of > tutorials anyone else who was in my position can recommend? For Java? Personally, I learned it so long ago that I haven't used much of the current resources. _Head First Java_ is pretty popular in terms of Java books. For Android, there are number of books on the market: http://wiki.andmob.org/books (and, yes, I wrote some of 'em) Tutorials are mostly in blog posts, plus sites like AndroidSnippets. I have a handful of them aggregated here: http://wiki.andmob.org/samplecode > Android may very well be the first place solo programmers like myself > have a chance to create mainstream popular mobile applications so if > such a reference doesn't exist I may well have to spearhead it.

[android-beginners] Breaking up Activity classes
As I'm learning about Activities and the components they contain I am wanting to break things up into components. Is there any list of guidelines / commonly used organization of Activity classes? As I add functionality to my apps, things like context menus, options menus, and references to view objects in from resources, my class starts to look really ugly. I have done a lot of .net programming, so at first I wanted to start making partial class declarations in different files but found out java doesn't support this. Are activity classes generally ugly or is there a common way that pro developers compartmentalize things in their activity classes?

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK For Beginners?
Hi Azelis and welcome to Android development! :) I'm pretty much new to programming. Android is my first software development experience aside from some relational database stuff I did years ago. I pretty much had to start learning from scratch several months ago. The first recommendation I have for you is to learn Java. I took this free online course: http://www.javapassion.com/javaintro/ I was new to both java and xml, but I found the xml easier to pick up than the java. Your C++ experience will help you learn the java faster I think. I also read this free Android development PDF book: http://andbook.anddev.org/ Which started to fill in a lot of the blanks for me about Android development. And I purchased the Professional Android Application Development paperback after browsing Android coding books at the local book store (so far it's my fav Android coding book). I still have lots more to learn, but I am on my 3rd or 4th app and I'm really enjoying developing for Android. I also made good use of this group, so I encourage you to also.

But it seems that there's no constructors for that (I may be mistaken). I have 2 arrays: {"5123", "7434", "7333", "7345" } and {"City 1", "City 2", "City 3", "City 4" }. Obviously, the spinner UI should show the name array of the cities, but in the backend (what's returned from the submission of the form is the value. Anyone knows how? // Put the array in the spinner ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, cityNames); spinCities.setAdapter(adapter); While, I'm the subject of spinners: is there any resource on the internet describing every type of spinner layouts?

(sorry for my english) they look like this @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); Date dateDate = new Date(); String codedate = new SimpleDateFormat("ddMMyy").format (dateDate); if (codedate != "220809") {txtKommentar.setText (R.string.k220809);} if (codedate != "210809") {txtKommentar.setText (R.string.k210809);} if (codedate != "200809") {txtKommentar.setText (R.string.k200809);} if (codedate != "190809") {txtKommentar.setText (R.string.k190809);} } and if the 'codedate' has a value of '210809', it still does this:... txtKommentar.setText(R.string.k190809); ...like the 'codedate'-strings value was 190809.. what is wrong?. please help me.. i can't figure it out.. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

[android-beginners] Trouble passing a KML file to the DDMS Location Emulator
I'm sure this must be a simple/dumb thing I'm doing wrong, as I'm unable to find anyone else posting about this problem...so, my apologies in advance if this is a stupid question. Basically, I'm trying to send mock location data to the Android Emulator via the DDMS application. I can successfully send locations one by one, using the "Manual Location" tab in DDMS. However, I can't get *any* KML files to even show up in DDMS when I load them...I have tried many different KML files, including the simple example files provided by Google. I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong, as I am quite new to Android. For example, I can't even get the DDMS window built in to Eclipse to show me the location-spoofing screen. I am running DDMS from the console. Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to offer!

[android-beginners] System Privileges on emulator
Hi, There seems to be two levels of uses-permission, user level and system level. When I declare to use INTERNET or BATTERY_STATS, in my AndroidManifest.xml file it works without problem. However when I try to use INSTALL_PACKAGES, BIND_APPWIDGET it does not work. According to a [android-beginner msg11514], “Whoever signs the system is also going to need to sign any app that wants system privileges.” I need to know how do I get System Privileges while debugging my application on emulator.

[android-beginners] How do I implement the onClick method for a DialogPreference?
I have implemented onSharedPreferenceChanged in my Preference Activity, which works for other preference settings but it won't get triggered when I click on the DialogPreference. I have also tried to add set the OnPreferenceClickListener to the DialogPreference, which also works, but this gets triggered as soon as I click on the preference screen and not on one of the buttons in the actual dialog window. I would like to somehow implement the onClick method but don't know where to do this. public class Preferences extends PreferenceActivity implements OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener { private static final String LOG = "test"; private DialogPreference mfactory; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); // Load the preferences from an XML resource addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences); mfactory = (DialogPreference)findPreference ("pref_factory"); mfactory.setOnPreferenceClickListener(new DialogPreference.OnPreferenceClickListener() { @Override public boolean onPreferenceClick(Preference preference) { Log.i(LOG, "onPreferenceClick1 entered"); // TODO Auto-generated method stub return false; }}); } @Override protected void onResume() { super.onResume(); Log.i(LOG, "onResume entered"); // Add a Listener getPreferenceScreen().getSharedPreferences ().registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this); } @Override protected void onPause() { super.onPause(); Log.i(LOG, "onPause entered"); // Remove the Listener getPreferenceScreen().getSharedPreferences ().unregisterOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this); } public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences sharedPreferences, String key) { Log.i(LOG, "onSharedPreferenceChanged entered"); } } } --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

[android-beginners] Intent-Filter for custom protocols
good morning :) i have a problem with registring a reciever as i wish :/ My Problem: there exist links like "irc://someserver.org/channelXY". When I try to open them with the browser, i always get some kind of "not found, page maybe moved ..."-message. Now im wondering if its possible to fetch those url-calls to my own activity. First thought: registering an reciever in the manifest - like: URIProtocolHandler.java: [...imports] public class URIProtocolHandler extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { Intent openSoundSettingsActivity = new Intent(context, ConnectScreen.class); context.startActivity(openSoundSettingsActivity); } } As far as I understood the concept, this should at least open the ConnectScreen-Activity. But - well - nothing happens - the browser is still showing the error screen. Maybe someone has an idea and can help me? I seem to be to tired to get it -.- Kind regards, avi --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
