[android-beginners] Re: How to I use touch screen to draw a straight line
A couple suggestions:
- don't make your x/y fields static.
- in onTouch, test that MotionEvent.getAction() is ACTION_DOWN.
- to draw you should create a custom View class and override the
onDraw method. See ApiDemos or the LunarLander samples for a start.

[android-beginners] Re: How to I use touch screen to draw a straight line
Note that if you want you can use your custom view directly in your
XML file, without having to manually add it to the layout at runtime.
To do that:
- declare your view as a static class or in it's separate java file,
let's say mypackage.DrawPoints.Mems
- write something like this in your XML:
< mypackage.DrawPoints.Mems android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
Note that in the XML layout editor you can use Control-Space to
trigger auto-completion on the attributes and values. It doesn't know
your custom class name though.
By the way, how do you get:
package <>.DrawPoints;
<> is not a valid package name in java. Is that some kind of unicode chars?

[android-beginners] Re: The method which operates android sample(Snake) with eclipse.
Using New> Android Project> Create project from existing source is the right way to do it. Make sure to select which Android target you want (1.1 or 1.5): the new project wizard will automatically select the right sample directory for you. Then select "Browse" and the Snake directory. It should then fill the properties at the bottom of the new android project wizard. However you should not put your workspace in %ANDROID_HOME%\samples. Leave it somewhere else (My Documents, whatever). I suspect you get a conflict because Eclipse tries to create a project and there's already a directory of the same name. In either case, can you look at your_workspace_dir/.metadata/.log for a more verbose error and post it?

[android-beginners] Re: Adding onClickListener and OnTouchListener to a Button
When you override methods, make sure to call their super.
Anyway, why do you want to use a touch listener on a button? You're
going to get tons of motion events each time the user touches the
button or simply slide its finger on it.

You can do this in 2 ways: - If you have adb debugging enabled on your device, use "adb install myapp.apk" to install it over USB. - Or upload it to any web server that you can access via the device web browser (if you're on a local network wifi, any local web server will do.) Browse the URL of the APK via the web browser, download it and install it.

[android-beginners] Update: new ADT Eclipse plugin 0.9.1 available
Hi all, We just updated the ADT Eclipse plugin to 0.9.1. The new plugin provides the following changes: - Added an AVD creation wizard to ADT. It is automatically displayed during a launch if no compatible AVDs are found. - Fixed issue with libs/ folder where files with no extension would prevent the build from finishing. - Improved error handling during the final steps of the build to mark the project if an unexpected error prevent the build from finishing. - Fixed issue when launching ADT on a clean install would trigger "org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: Not implemented [multiple displays]." - Improved error handling when parsing manifest when the node is present with no (valid) minSdkVersion attribute (error shown would say "null") To update from Eclipse, simply use Help > Software Update as usual or visit the download page at http://developer.android.com/sdk/adt_download.html Hope this helps, Raphael. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

On some of my eclipse installs, this is not checked after I install ADT and the wizard don't appear in the File > New menu. Checking that solves it.

Once you do that, running will reuse the same launch configuration till you select another one. You can use the grenn icons "debug" and "run" in the toolbar to quickly launch the same project.

The structure of the SDK has changed to be able to handle multiple platforms. You must use the Android SDK 1.5 with ADT 0.9x.

In a nutshell: - Eclipse compiles your .java into .class - "dx" converts the various .class into bin/classes.dex. - aapt compiles your resources in a compact binary form. - the manifest, the compiled resources and the classes.dex get combined in your apk file, which is just a zile file.

I tried a while ago and failed. With P2 (the new installer in Eclipse 3.4) I didn't manage to get it to install the missing plugins. The old one at least complained some stuff was missing, the new one seems to just let you install something that doesn't work. According to the feature matrix at http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/compare-packages, Classic lacks GEF (for the layout editor) and XML Tools (for the XML editor). Yet Classic manages to be twice bigger than the "Java" version that has more plugin, so really what's the point? Sure it has sources bundled but quite frankly who ues them and it's easier to get plugins sources from CVS anyway.

[android-beginners] Re: Help with layout views and Canvas'
If you want a linear set of buttons use a LinearLayout. If you want a grid, simply put a TableLayout in your XML with several TableRow inside. You can use ImageButton to have a button with an image in the middle (use the src attribute). All the widgets derive from View, which has a "background" attribute so you can change the background to an image or a gradient on any of your widgets.

There's also an option in the little menu at the top of the tree to hide empty packages. However when you do that you can't anymore right click on an empty package to make a class in it. That's not too much of any issue though, just invoke the class wizard from another wizard and then change the package line manually.

[android-beginners] Re: Problem with tutorials.
If by "W7" you mean Windows 7, it's not supported yet and nobody actually even tried so you're a bit on your own here. The first thing you should try is to change the preference Android > Build to verbose to get a better idea of where things go wrong. The second thing is to file a bug at b.android.com -- we probably won't support Windows 7 till it gets official, whenever that is, but at least we'll have an issue to track.

[android-beginners] Re: HTC Magic - Can't install driver on development PCs
Hi there, We're trying to reproduce the issue. I have a few questions: - Which version of Windows are you using? XP, Vista, W7, 32 or 64bit. - Did you *ever* install an android USB driver before? SDK 1.0/1.1 had one and it has been updated in 1.5. - When you plug the device and go to the Device Manager, is it listed as unknown or as an adb device? - Did Windows ever prompt you about installing a driver for an unknown device? Sorry if some of the questions are generic, I'm trying to get broad enough before drilling in specifics.

[android-beginners] Re: Cannot create AVD in window XP
If you are under Windows there should be SDK/tools/android.bat and android.sh for linux/mac. If SDK/tools is not on your path, add it. The only android.jar you can find is SDK/platforms/android-1.[15]/android.jar which is the API for ant/eclipse. It has nothing to do with the "android" command-line tool.

One more question: when you fail to get ADB discovered by Windows, do you see a Other Device > Unknown Device entry in the Device Manager? I got into this situation under Vista: - removed old ADB driver, rebooted - upon reboot Windows told me a new device had been found and prompted me for a driver. I asked to select the location and selected SDK/usb_driver - windows tried to install a driver to finally give up by saying it was "not compatible" with my platform. - once it did that, it won't prompt me again However I can: - select the Other Device > Unknow Device in Device Manager - right click and get properties - it's hardware id (3rd tab) is USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C02&MI_01 (0BB4 and 0C02 denote an HTC/Magic iirc) - in the general tab of the properties > Reinstall driver - correctly select the sdk\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r1\usb_driver\x86 location this time R/ On Mon, May 18, 2009 at 12:24 PM, Nicholas Radford wrote: > Lol, no worries > for me... > We're trying to reproduce the issue.

On Mon, May 18, 2009 at 5:22 PM, Nicholas Radford wrote: > Will do in the morning Forget the linux question. It became totally irrelevant. We found the issue: it happens when the device is plugged in Windows with "USB Debugging" turned off first. The current fix is: a) Make sure to enable "USB Debugging" before plugging the device under Windows the *very* first time. Of course in your case that's too late. b) Use regedit to find the string "vid_0bb4&pid_0c02" in keys or values. If you find in a value, delete the whole registry folder. Repeat till you find none. Then do step (a). Usual disclaimer: if you don't know what regedit is nor how to use it or fear you will screw up your config, please don't do it :-) The issue is that Windows recorded an invalid driver entry associated to your device (G1 or Magic) when it has been first connected without the USB Debugging flag. You want to trash those entries so that Windows can prompt you.

[android-beginners] How to solve "G1/HTC Magic not recognized by ADB under Windows"
If you don't use Windows or adb has no problem with your device, please skip this. If your G1 or HTC Magic is not properly recognized by ADB under Windows, please read this. The bottom line: Please make sure to enable Home > Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic *before* you plug it in Windows the very first time. If you read this after the fact, googling why "adb doesn't recognize my device under Windows", here are the steps to fix it: This concerns both the G1 and HTC Magic and all flavors of Windows. 1- Remove existing drivers: 1a- Plug your phone 1b- Open the Device Manager 1c- Remove any driver for [ADB Interface > HTC Composite ADB Interface] and [Disk Drives > HTC Android Phone USB Device] if you see them 1d- Unplug phone 2- Edit the registry 2a- Disclaimer: be careful what you do in regedit. If you're not sure, don't use it :-) 2b- Open the Registry Editor (Start > search/run > regedit) 2c- You *may* need to be administrator to do that 2d- Search for "vid_0bb4&pid_0c02" in keys or values. It makes take a while. If you find in a value, delete the whole key folder. 2e- Some keys might be "locked": right-click them and add "everyone: full control" to the permissions. Then delete the key folder. 2f- Repeat the search till no more instances are found. 2g- Close regedit. 3- Before your plug in your phone: 3a- Make sure to enable Home > Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic 3b- Plug the phone in. Windows should now ask you for a driver 3c- Do NOT selected to search the Windows Update. Instead select "I will choose a driver" or the equivalent. 3d- Make sure to give the *full* path to the x86 or x86_64 driver, e.g: SDK/usb_driver/x86/ or SDK/usb_driver/x86_64/ If you just select "SDK/usb_driver", Windows might take the wrong architecture and complain the driver can't be installed.

[android-beginners] Re: storing values of an array
Simply serialize your ints to a string and write in a simple sqlite
database. It's rather inexpensive and compact. You don't need a
provider or things like that, just use the database helper (there's
one in some sample) to create the db and a couple of query/select
commands to store and restore.
Alternatively you can do even simpler by storing the string as an app
preference:
prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context);
prefs.edit().putString("name", value).commit();
prefs.getString("name);

What driver do you want to install? 1- For transfering files from the SD Card, you do not need any driver. 2- For using ADB to debug, you need the driver that comes with the SDK.

[android-beginners] Re: Android SDK
The list of targets in the New Android Project Wizard should be the same as in the Windows > Pref > Android. I mean really it's the same code. Are you sure that in the same session, you open the pref you see the 3 targets then close that, go to the project wizard and the list is empty?

[android-beginners] Re: Best way to add 100.000 words to database
This begs to a different kind of question: do you really need to store
this data in an sqlite3 database?
There are other alternatives, it all depends on your data and how you
want to use it so you might want to help us here.
Example: you mention "words", just not any string, so your data might
be a dictionary.
Then in this case you could simply use a binary file, in your own
format, packaged in your project/res/raw directory, which you can
retrieve with
http://d.android.com/reference/android/content/res/Resources.html#openRawResource(int)
-- the file is added uncompressed to your APK but the APK itself is a
zip file, which is why you get an input stream. That also means if you
need direct random access you'll probably want to write it somewhere,
such as on the sdcard.
Make sure to write an index for fast lookup, for example the offset of
words starting by A, by B, etc. You will probably need to experiment a
bit to get a tradeof between simplicity of the index and lookup time,
e.g. a tree will have faster lookup times but is more tricky to get
right, etc.

[android-beginners] Re: Android in Eclipse - package name problem - please help
First check that you're not using the Navigator view instead (which shows files, not Java namespaces). In the package explorer, click on the "View Menu" (a little triangle just above the scrollbar in the explorer view. Select Package Presentation and change it from flat to hierarchical, or the reverse.

[android-beginners] Re: aapt is present - Hello, World application.
Can you do a "ls -l /home/haze/android/platforms/android-1.1/tools/" to see the file attributes? The old SDK used a zip for linux, and some unzip binaires sometimes did not preserve file attributes. If "ls -l" doesn't show the files as +x, you can try: chmod -v +x /home/haze/android/platforms/android-1.1/tools/* Let us know if that helps.

[android-beginners] Re: help
You're mixing a few things:
- the id of a view (i.e. R.id.calculate_id) is just that: an
identifier that lets you *find* the object in question.
- you can't assign to that id, it's just a constant integer
Instead you should do:
- find the view based on the id:
EditText myEditField = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.calculate_id);
- use some of the EditText methods to change the text:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/EditText.html
e.g:
myEditField.setText("42");
I *strongly* suggest you get an introductory book on Android or look
at some of the samples under SDK/platform-1.6/samples/

[android-beginners] Re: CheckboxPreference vs. CheckBoxPreference
Yes indeed, ADT doesn't complain about this: your preference can use any custom class that you define. ADT doesn't currently support handling custom classes (one day we'll add it) so it doesn't know this class does not exist till runtime.

What Balwinder meant is that you want to start using the SDK 1.6 to make sure your apps are compatible with Android 1.6. You should keep your minSdkVersion to whatever is the minimum API supported by your app -- simply test them using an AVD based on the API level 4 to run the emulator using Android 1.6 . However, yes, if you try to publish an app using minSdkVersion=4 today on Market, nobody will be able to download it.
