[android-beginners] Looking for a bit of design advice
Hi, I'm hoping that someone could provide me with a bit of advice around managing the threads in my application. I'm implementing an application for android that consists of several activities. All work in the application is done using a series of tasks, which are atomic units of work that are processed by what is basically a threadpool. The threadpool is a singleton, so anywhere within the application, I can do something like: LoginTask login = new LoginTask(credentials) BackgroundProcess.getInstance().addTask(login); This fires off a message to our server asking to authenticate the user. The application then polls for a resonse and handles it accordingly when it receives it. This is a pretty basic example. There are many other asynchronous tasks occurring within the application. My confusion/uncertainty revolves around initializing and shutting down the threadpool singleton. There appears to be no way to know when the application is shutdown, since an application is simply a bunch of interacting activities. I know when a given activity is destroyed or stopped or paused, but that doesn't mean that the application is shutdown. I've read up on services. Might this be the way to go? Implement a service that starts the threadpool in onCreate and that shuts it down in onDestroy? My understanding is that the service can go on running long after all activities have been destroyed. I may not quite understand this correctly, though. Any advice is appreciated and I'd be happy to provide more detail if clarification is needed.

[android-beginners] NFC support
Hi all. Looking to develop an application to read rfid's and transmit the data over the internet. First of all, anyone got any recommendations on how to accomplish this? I've been looking at using libnfc.org in conjunction with an android phone. I was hoping to use the emulator however it appears that the emulator doesn't support usb plug in, hence I'm assuming it won't support the emulation of reading an rfid tag?

[android-beginners] Re: getApplicationContext() AlertDialog.Builder
@TreKing I did get the exact same error (token null is not for an application). Because of curiosity I put the following in my source code: Log.v(TAG, this is + this); Log.v(TAG, getApplicationContext() is + getApplicationContext()); I found that these two values are in fact NOT equal. While 'this' points to the current Activity (e.g. com.example.mypackage.MyActivityClass), 'getApplicationContext()' returns a reference to an android.app.Application class. So you and Dianne Hackborn are right. The problem is that the Dialog cannot display properly because the provided Context is not an Activity. Thank you so much! Finally some enlightenment. @Mark Murphy Your guess that the cause of the error could be the fact that Toast lives outside any Activity, while Dialogs are tied to an Activity proved absolutely right! I agree that it would be nice to reflect that fact in the parameter list of those methods. However, in the future I will also try to avoid using 'getApplicationContext()' if it can cause these annoying runtime errors. In fact you two people helped me out tremendously. Thank you very much for putting your time and thought into this. Best wishes, Matt On 10 Nov., 22:49, TreKing treking...@gmail.com wrote: I ran into this before.

[android-beginners] Re: getApplicationContext() AlertDialog.Builder
I should mention that the runtime error does not occur in this line here AlertDialog.Builder b = new AlertDialog.Builder(getApplicationContext ()); but when calling b.show() later on. According to DDMS, the WindowManager crashes because it is trying to add a new Window (the dialog) with a token=null. How can that be? Especially when the Toast message gets displayed properly and that is created and shown even before creating that Builder instance.

[android-beginners] Re: getApplicationContext() AlertDialog.Builder
I tried
b.create().show();
but that did not solve the problem. This is very strange. If I can use
'getApplicationContext()' and 'this' interchangeably when dealing with
Toast messages, I assume that those two are in fact pretty much the
same. Now, on the other hand, when dealing with that
AlertDialog.Builder class, where I can use 'this', but using
'getApplicationContext()' results in a runtime error when showing the
dialog, I must assume that 'this' and 'getApplicationContext()' are
NOT the same. How is that possible?
Anyway, here is a error log. Maybe someone can think of a solution
while looking at the actual error message.
...

token WindowToken{43be4580 token=null}. Aborting.

TextView android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:text=@string/hello / TextView android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent android:text=@string/empty_string / Button android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:gravity=bottom android:text=@string/btn_start_game / Matt Justin Anderson wrote: Depending on what you want to do, with the space in the middle, you could create a view that acts as an empty space holder and set its layout_height attribute to fill_parent. One simple way of doing this would be to use a TextView that only displays an empty string -- There are only 10 types of people in the world...

Restarting the emulator didn't help. Shutting it down then going to my run configuations-target and selecting wipe user data worked. I think forced it to rebuild the database of images. The wipe user data option doesn't wipe the virtual sdcard I had attached to the emulator.

[android-beginners] Re: DDMS doesn't show my G1
Hi Mark, I seem to be having the same problem. I thought I could remedy it by getting the G1 drivers in there, and I finally figured out how to do it. In the device manager, when the G1 is plugged in, it now shows Android Phone Android Composite ADB Interface. I've also installed the Java Development Kit (JDK) as per the instructions of this site which was recommended to me: http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/07/21/how-to-take-screenshots-of-your-android-based-phone-from-windows/. This has no effect. I've also installed Eclipse as per the developer instructions, and added the Android plugin. Still nothing in ddms. No matter what I do, connect, or install in any order, the ddms.bat will not see my G1. I'm just looking to get a few screen shots for an article. Is there any hope here? Thanks for any insight.

[android-beginners] Re: DDMS doesn't show my G1
Hi Wayne. USB debugging was turned on at the time. However, it did end up seeing the device after all, though I'm not sure why. In reading the installation instructions for the Android SDK, I messed around with the Environment/System Variables of Win XP. Changing the PATH to the SDK directory (as instructed) messed up the computer a bit (a few errors, some programs wouldn't run, including ddms). Changing the PATH System Variable back to the default (actually, a default setting I found online) brought everything back to normal, and then the ddms began recognizing the G1. I'm not sure what this change jogged, or why, but I'm happy with the outcome. Any thoughts? Thanks for your help. Matt On Oct 20, 3:08 pm, Wayne Wenthin wa...@fuligin.com wrote: is USB debugging on?

[android-beginners] Change color to another color in Drawable
I'm working on an android application, and I have a drawable that I'm loading up from a source image. On this image, I'd like to convert all of the white pixels to a different color, say blue, and then cache the resultant Drawable object so I can use it later. So for example say I have a 20x20 PNG file that has a white circle in the middle, and that everything outside the circle is transparent. What's the best way to turn that white circle blue and cache the results? Does the answer change if I want to use that source image to create several new Drawables (say blue, red, green, orange, etc)? I'm guessing that I'll want to use a ColorMatrix in some way, but I'm not sure how.

How exactly do I remove something from the adapter? Do you really mean
the adapter or do you mean the actual array?
Here is what I did so far:
String[] names = {John, George, Jim};
ArrayAdapterString adapter = new ArrayAdapterString(
this,

setListAdapter(adapter);
I tried to use the method adapter.remove(John); but that resulted in

[android-beginners] Question about checkbox and gravity in layout
Hi, here I have a part of my layout, where I want to position a checkbox to the right of the screen while it with two lines of text. I was trying to mimic the look of the layout on the settings pages in the emulator. Here is the layout XML: LinearLayout android:orientation=horizontal android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:padding=4dp LinearLayout android:orientation=vertical android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content android:padding=2dp TextView android:text=Use colored text android:textSize=18sp android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content /TextView TextView android:text=Check to output colored text android:textSize=12sp android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content /TextView /LinearLayout LinearLayout android:orientation=vertical android:gravity=right android:layout_gravity=right android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:padding=2dp CheckBox android:id=@+id/check android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content /CheckBox /LinearLayout /LinearLayout Now this works fine, but I was wondering why I need to wrap the checkbox in another LinearLayout to actually get it to stick to the right side. If I would remove the LinearLayout that's wrapping the checkbox, it wouldn't be at the right side of the screen, even if I would put gravity=right in the checkbox properties. Any idea why? Or any suggestion on how to create this layout more efficiently? Thank in advance!

[android-beginners] Listening for Volume / Ring Mode changed?
I am writing a simple application that will turn off the ringer for a period of time and then turn it back on automatically. I would use this to turn off the ringer for an hour before a meeting or something, and then I wouldn't have to remember to turn it back on. I am using AudioManager.setRingerMode(RINGER_MODE_VIBRATE) to set the phone to vibrate. I am using AlarmManager with a PendingIntent to set the ringer mode to RINGER_MODE_NORMAL after a delay. I would like my application to be aware if the user is changing the ringer on/off with the volume keys or some other system setting. If the user turns the ringer back on by them self, then I want to detect this and cancel the my broadcast with the AlarmManager. How can I detect if the volume is changing? Is there some intent I should register for? Is there some sort of onRingModeChanged function I need to implement? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.
