[android-developers] Asynchronously loading problem
What i want to do is starting a new thread when i click a button and
this new thread will do some long-time tasks. A loading dialog will be
shown before that thread starts and will be hidden when the thread
ends.If i wait until the thread finishes its job and ends normally,
everything will be OK. But if i cancel the loading dialog and
"interrupt" the thread in the cancel event handler of that dialog, an
UnCaughtExcetpion will be thrown.

I've done a release, you can find the tag here. http://masa.googlecode.com/svn/tags/masa-project-1.0/ I've also set up the artifacts into repository, so you don't need to build. Place the following in your pom or settings.xml file. m2-repo.release Maven Release Repository http://m2-repo.googlecode.com/svn/release false true Keep in mind that you will still need to install the android.jar into your local repo (unless you are using system scope): Check the README,txt file in the tag to see how the android.jar install is done.

[android-developers] Re: What's this warning means?
I don't think you can do anything about it. I believe I've seen that before and I ignore it. It's probably something internal. It's surprising the number of warnings (and even a few errors) you see that don't have anything to do with your app. For instance, I always get a ClassNotFoundException for some class that I have no idea what it's for.

[android-developers] Re: misbehaving grid (not aligning properly with multi-line text and image)
Hi Ken,
It seems that the grid does not behave well if WRAP_LAYOUT or FILL_PARENT
are used inside the cell's layout.
I changed the following code :
addView(icon, new
LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
this.icon.setImageBitmap(getBitmap(urlString));
this.name = new TextView(context);
addView(this.name, new
LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
to:
addView(icon, new
LinearLayout.LayoutParams(50,50));
this.icon.setImageBitmap(getBitmap(urlString));
this.name = new TextView(context);
addView(this.name, new
LinearLayout.LayoutParams(50,50));
and then your grid works fine. You may want to log a bug in the issue
tracker about the grid getting distorted by using the WRAP_LAYOUT and
FILL_LAYOUT.
Thanks,
Megha

[android-developers] Re: selectable AutoCompleteTextView and "filtering" issue
You are probably clicking on the result list. In that case you are in
touch mode and the selection does not exist in the drop down. Instead
of calling parent.getSelected*() you should call obtainItem(int
position).

[android-developers] Re: Life cycle of activities updating a database
Yeah for prompting dialogs I believe our approach is to have ok and cancel buttons, with back meaning cancel. These are very different than editing screens, where there is actually some concrete thing you are operating on. These details of the UI have still been in flux; it's not something I am involved with a lot, so I can't really give you concrete answers for these details of UI conventions.

[android-developers] selectable AutoCompleteTextView and "filtering" issue
Hi,
I have a problem with AutoCompleteTextView
I have a (clickable) list of objects i.e. when you click on an item
you get to another activity which is guided by that specific item
clicked. I want to use the Autocomplete to search in that list but I
want the same behavior I get with a regular list - an item to be
clicked and processed. Please see my code:
ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, namesLIST);
AutoCompleteTextView textView = (AutoCompleteTextView)
findViewById(R.id.list);
textView.setAdapter(adapter);
Where namesLIST is a String array created specially for the
Autocomplete
Then I do:
textView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int
position,
long id) {
showItem(parent,position, id);
}
});
where I tried to see what I get:
private void showItem(AdapterView parent, int position, long id) {
Log.d(TAG,"zz position:" + parent.getSelectedItemPosition());
Log.d(TAG,"selected item:" +parent.getSelectedItem());
Log.d(TAG,"adapter view:" + parent);
Log.d(TAG,"position:" + position + " id:" +id);
}
I saw that I get nothing useful here. Typical output would be:
zz position: -1
selected item: null
adapter view: .
position: 1 id:1
What am I doing wrong? How can I keep the reference to original items
in the original list?
Maybe I can I use the original objects somehow in Autocomplete?
Thank you for your help!

[android-developers] ContentObserver does not call onChange if data are changed through separate IntentReceiver?
It seems, my ContentObserver does not tell me if data are changed by a
different process? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong:
I have an activity in which I register a ContentObserver:
mCursorListFilter = getContentResolver().query(Lists.CONTENT_URI,
myFilter,
null, null, Lists.DEFAULT_SORT_ORDER);
startManagingCursor(mCursorListFilter);
class mListContentObserver extends ContentObserver {
public mListContentObserver(Handler handler) {
super(handler);
}
@Override
public void onChange(boolean arg0) {
Log.i(TAG, "mListContentObserver: onChange");
mCursorListFilter.requery();
super.onChange(arg0);
}
};
mCursorListFilter.registerContentObserver(new
mListContentObserver(new Handler()));
I do receive the LogCat events onChange if data are changed from
within the same activity.
However, when I change the data through a separate IntentReceiver that
receives Intents in the background, I don't receive onChange events,
and my data in my ListViews don't get updated.
In the IntentReceiver I do something like this:
public void onReceiveIntent(Context context, Intent intent) {
[...]
Cursor c = mContentResolver.query(
Shopping.Lists.CONTENT_URI,
mProjectionLists,
Shopping.Lists.SHARE_NAME + " = '" + shareListName +
"'",
null,
Shopping.Lists.DEFAULT_SORT_ORDER);
[...]
c.first();
c.updateString(mProjectionListsSHARECONTACTS, shareContacts);
c.commitUpdates();
c.requery();
}
The data are changed in the database. If I exit my activity and start
it again, I see the new data. Just they don't get updated "live" while
the IntentReceiver receives the data in the background.
Is a ContentObserver suitable for these cases, or is it only made to
notify within one activity? Should I use other methods so that the
IntentReceiver can notify the main Activity (if running)?

[android-developers] Re: Life cycle of activities updating a database
Ok, thank you for the hints. In my case, I display a subactivity in form of a dialog for entering connection settings. Pressing "back" returned to the main activity that reconnected with the new settings. So I guess the best is to introduce the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons, and have pressing "back" meaning "Cancel" in a dialog, right? (so the edit- in-place model really applies only to main activities, and not to dialogs as I mistakenly assumed...)

[android-developers] Show an image from a webserver
I want to add images to a map that represent stored points on the map. I can add an image if the image is stored in the r.drawable folder, however, I would like the user to be able to load an image when they store the point. For instance, if they stored a pointer to their work, they may add an image of the company logo or something like that. My initial thought was to store the uploaded image in the database in base64 format. I then have a webpage the decodes the stored image and displays it. However, I am not sure how to request the image from the Android client, then show it on the map. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the image from the web server, then display it on the map? Or possibly another way to accomplish this task?

[android-developers] AutoCompleteTextView Problem - Does not display content
Hi!
Here is the focus change handler I wrote for an AutoCompleteTextView.
Now my problem is that whenever, the view loses focus, it does not
display content in the box. However, when I switch back to
AutoCompleteTextView it starts displaying it. I think this is a wrong
behaviour. Any comments.
Regards
Nitin
HSC
uri_box.setOnFocusChangeListener(new OnFocusChangeListener(){
public void onFocusChanged(View v, boolean hasFocus)
{
if (hasFocus)
{
AutoCompleteTextView uri_box =
(AutoCompleteTextView)v;
String st =
uri_box.getText().toString().trim();
if (st.compareToIgnoreCase("Address") == 0)
{
uri_box.setText("");
}
}
else
{
AutoCompleteTextView uri_box =
(AutoCompleteTextView)v;
if
(uri_box.getText().toString().trim().length() == 0)
{
uri_box.setText("Address");
}
}
}}

[android-developers] Re: Custom drawing states possible?
Hi,
You can use the mergeDrawableStates() method of the View class to provide
your custom states:
http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/view/View.html#mergeDrawableStates(int[],%20int[])
Try the steps below to create new custom states:
1) Define the state resources in res/values/attrs.xml
2) In your custom view class :
A) Declare the state variables:
private static final int[] FRIED_STATE_SET = {
R.attr.state_fried
};
private static final int[] BAKED_STATE_SET = {
R.attr.state_baked
};
B) Override the onCreateDrawableState() method:
@Override
protected int[] onCreateDrawableState(int extraSpace) {
final int[] drawableState = super.onCreateDrawableState(extraSpace +
2);
if (isFried()) {
mergeDrawableStates(drawableState, FRIED_STATE_SET);
}
if (isBaked()) {
mergeDrawableStates(drawableState, BAKED_STATE_SET);
}
return drawableState;
}
Once this is done, you should be able to use these in
ColorStateListDrawable, but you should use your app's namespace to use these
new states:
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/">

[android-developers] Re: Problem with displaying Notification
Service or receiver... it's not clear from the original post what they mean by "notification defined in an activity," but generally for things happening in the background you should use the NotificationManager API to show this information to the user in the status bar, so they can deal with it as they want. You can also use the Toast class to display a briefly floating message to them that will not interrupt their current interaction. We definitely prefer that you don't display an activity.

You almost certainly don't want to always call finish() in onPause(), you can be paused for many reasons: the user pressing the home button, the device going to sleep, etc. The key thing is that while being paused, you need to have your state saved away so it can be recovered if the process has to be killed and your activity later restarted.

[android-developers] Re: Adding browser supported types
Here are the steps to recreate the problem.
Step 1)
Create a dummy activity called Dummy.java and the code for that is
***
public class Dummy extends Activity {
protected void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.dummy);
}
}
**
step 2)
create dummy.xml with this content
***
**
step 3)
edit AndroidManifest.xml to add
*
*
step 4)
deploy the activity, search and navigate to any mp3 file. You will see
the above "list view can't have unspecified size exception". For quick
test, this link could be helpful.
http://www.archive.org/download/BenWillemsTestwavTestmp3/Test_64kb.mp3.
My activity does render itself fine ( there is nothing really there in
it). When I try to open it via an intent and by hooking up the
mimetype, i get the error mentioned in this thread.
Please help.

[android-developers] Blank screen after Activity starts
I have an app which starts on RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED. It checks to see if preferences are already set and if so starts an activity which has no interface but just registers to handle changes in PhoneState. This is all fine but the user is left starting at a blank screen and has to press the Home button to get to a regular screen. How can I get the Activity to get out of the way GUI-wise and let the Home and/or other apps show without user intervention?

[android-developers] Re: Life cycle of activities updating a database
I also wonder what the correct implementation would be.
If the design philosophy is "save on back", then why does this default
to
RESULT_CANCELED?
My workaround is to call "finish()" in the "onPause()" method, right
after "setResult(...)".
This results in 2 calls to onActivityResult(..): One with
RESULT_CANCELED, and one with RESULT_OK with the correct bundles
passed.
Furthermore, LogCat says:
W/ActivityManager( 6246): Duplicate finish request for
HistoryRecord{4009e378 {org.openintents/
org.openintents.shopping.share.ListShareSettingsActivity}}
Since there is a warning, this can not be 100% correct, but it seems
to work. I wonder what the "correct" solution would be - to pass a
bundle from a subactivity when the user presses the back button...

Hi Android Graphics Team, I would like to call OpenGL extension function: void glDrawTexiOES(int x, int y, int z, int width, int height) to render a 2D image directly in 3D scene without bothering to use OpenGL quad. The question is, how can I get a GL11Ext instance? I could not find any function to do this. Does this means I can simply cast the instance returned by OpenGLContext.getGL() into a GL11Ext?

[android-developers] Re: Transfer a Serializable obj to other activity issue? how to do this?
Hi,
In the current release of the SDK, there is a bug that prevents
application-specific Serializable or Parecelable objects from being used in
the extras data of an Intent when starting an activity.
Also, the use of Serializable is not recommended because it is extremely
slow.
Thanks,

[android-developers] Re: Is there a memory threshhold after which ActivityManager starts removing activities from the stack?
The activity manager does not remove activities based on their size. The kernel kills processes based on their current state (foreground/ background) and the overall memory available in the system, but the activity manager remembers their frozen state so that when the user returns to an activity in the killed process, a new process can be created and the activity restarted with its previous state. Unless otherwise specified, all activities in a .apk run in their own, dedicated process, so they will all be killed together. I don't know why you would be seeing the behavior you are describing.

[android-developers] Loading data after first draw.
Hi Does any one have any thoughts on the proper way to do this: I want to create a thread to load data from the web AFTER at least one "frame" has been drawn on the screen. This is for a MapView, so maybe there is a way to instantiate a call when the map has completely drawn at least once? The MapView is contained in a MapActivity, obviously, so I could also add the call somewhere in the activity. Note: What I am looking for is the right place to instantiate a thread after the user at least sees a map on the screen. So if I add the call to the thread in OnResume in the MapActivity, for example, that would not work, because at that point there is nothing drawn on the screen. Any thoughts?

[android-developers] Re: PC restarts when launching the emulator
wow, I'm glad that this solved it. in case you still want audio output to
work, try defining the following environment variable before starting the
emulator:
set QEMU_AUDIO_IN_DRV=none
this will disable the Windows wave input audio driver, while still using
wave output (like M3) did. if this doesn't work, let me know too.
could you tell us more about your hardware and OS version ? which sound card
do you have, what driver is it using, which version, on which OS version
exactly ? this will help us diagnose the problem in the future.
I don't think there is anything we can do here, the emulator only does
normal Win32 API calls like waveInOpen() et al. these are certainly not
supposed to reboot your machine.
regarding the error messages:
"could not find \tools\adb.exe" is printed by the Eclipse plugin when you
don't setup the SDK path normally
"[adb] * daemon not running. starting it now" is printed by the adb tool
when it detects that the ADB server (i.e. the adb.exe background daemon) is
not running. this is not an error message, just a normal one but it's good
to print it for diagnostic reasons.
a bug would be a message like "[adb] failed to start server" though

[android-developers] Re: Unresolved symbols & JNI
thanks, this is enough information for me to understand and propose you a
solution.
it turns out that I can trivially compile and run a program that contains
the example functions definitions you gave previously. this picked my
curiousity and took a deeper look at how things work and are built in our
platform. and boy, do things look a bit different from what I thought
initially.
- all the __aeabi_ functions are part of a companion library called
"libgcc" (http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Libgcc.html)
that comes with your toolchain. more exactly, your toolchain comes
with several versions of libgcc, which depend on which
compiler options you're using. the one we used is the one returned by
the following command:
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -mthumb-interwork
-print-libgcc-file-name
- when you create an executable (either static or dynamic) *or* a
shared library, link it to this libgcc.a. this means that the aeabi
functions required by the executable/library are directly copied into it.
yes, this also means that these functions will be duplicated in the process
space of a program that links to several shared libraries requiring them.
note that libgcc.a must appear last in your link command.
this explains why there are some eabi functions in the C library, but not
all of them, or in the linker, or in many other libraries. these multiple
definitions will not conflict since the linker will resolve the symbol to
the first one it finds when needed (and all functions are identical). My
belief that the linker provided all the functions and linked them at runtime
was essentially wrong.
I don't know exactly why we're doing it this way, but I'll ask the system
guys. My first guess would be that we do that mainly for performance reasons
(a direct function call is significantly faster than a PLT trampoline jump,
even after lazy relocation being performed, and many of these functions are
tiny but crucial for 64-bit support, floating-point emulation, and even
straight integer division)

[android-developers] Transfer a Serializable obj to other activity issue? how to do this?
I have create a class implements Serializable,
public class FormDef implements Serializable{
some string variable.
and some vector container holds some serializable obj.
...
...
}
call subActivity
Intent i = new Intent(this,RecordFieldScreen.class);
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putSerializable(ParameterDef.FORM_NAME, obj);
i.putExtra(ParameterDef.FORM_NAME, bundle);
i.putExtra(ParameterDef.VALUE_CARRY,false);
startSubActivity(i,ParameterDef.DETAIL_SCREEN);
after exectue startSubActivity statement, it throws me an error via
LogCat, say:
DEBUG/dalvikvm(519): Exception Ljava/lang/ClassNotFoundException; from
PathClassLoader.java:205 not caught locally
DEBUG/dalvikvm(519): NOTE: loadClass

[android-developers] Re: Running Multiple Instances of the Emulator
hello, I assume that you're using M3, since running multiple instances on Windows is only supported since M5. (the documentation you point to is for the latest SDK release) if you have a M3, then unfortunately both emulators will listen to the same ADB ports, resulting in the problem you're seeing (thanks for SO_REUSEADDR being so broken and useless in Winsock). this doesn't happen on Linux or OS X however, but M5 has the necessary fixes...

[android-developers] Re: How to update the UI from a timer
The only way to do this is with a handler as mentioned a few times

[android-developers] Re: How to show one View inside another.
It works, thanks !!!
But now I got another issue.
Where do I have to put viewChild.getWith()? because I am always
getting 0 or viewParent size, it depends on where I put it.
viewParent.onDraw()
{
viewChild.getWidth() // Here I got viewParent size
}
viewParent.onLayout()
viewParent.onDraw()
{
viewChild.getWidth() // Here I got 0
}
Thanks again.

[android-developers] Custom drawing states possible?
With some searching I've found several examples and explanations of customizing the look of a component based on the drawing states. But I haven't found anything about defining custom drawing states. For instance, suppose I have a component that maintains states that I might call "baked" and "fried" and I want it's appearance to track these states. So I'm imagining this drawable: http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";> Is this possible? I see that it is possible (with setState, mergeDrawableStates, etc.) to have custom state data, but I don't see how to put this to use. I can't figure out from the documentation whether it is even possible to define custom item state attributes in xml, much less how to do it and link them to the state vector. (I'm assuming that if this is possible, I could also mix custom attributes with standard ones like android:state_pressed.) A pointer to an example or two would be very helpful.

[android-developers] Re: How to update the UI from a timer
I think I have the same problem. I want to update a progress bar at a
regular interval of time. I am calling setProgress() each second but
the progress bar will not redraw itself.
I tried to call postInvalidate after setProgress and it works BUT only
if I give a constant value to setProgress (for example
setProgress(14)). When I give the value I want (which is one media
player's position) it does not redraw itself
I see that I shall try the approach, mentioned here - with handlers -
but anyway is there anyone that can explain me why this happens?
Here is my code of the timer:
public class KalinTask extends TimerTask {
private TrackProgress p;
private MediaPlayer mp;
public KalinTask(TrackProgress _p, MediaPlayer _mp){
p = _p; mp = _mp;
p.setProgress(5);
}
@Override
public void run() {
Log.e("upl", "Run: "+ p.getProgress());
p.setProgress((mp.getCurrentPosition()*100)/mp.getDuration());
p.postInvalidate();
}
}

[android-developers] Re: suggestion: the *relevant* context should be automatically accessible from any method
That is not true, all of the activities (and intent receivers and services) are called in the main thread of the process they are running in. Also, calls to service interfaces and content providers are executed in the calling thread, not their own thread.

[android-developers] Re: Disable Log for Release
The most efficient is to have a static final boolean SHOW_LOGS = {true|
false} somewhere, and check this every time you are going to call
Log.foo():
if (MyGlobals.SHOW_LOGS) Log.d("Me", "I am logging").
This allows all of the logging code to be stripped from the
executable.

[android-developers] Re: closing a defined subActivity/Layout
There are tons and tons of examples in the sample code of doing this
kind of thing... what is different about your code? Try removing
parts of the code (for example the onActivityResult(), the
setResult(), use startActivity() instead of startSubActivity()) to
narrow down what aspect is causing the problem.
Also there may be interesting information in the log, so take a look
there for clues.

[android-developers] suggestion: the *relevant* context should be automatically accessible from any method
NOTE: I could be mistaken in my facts below. Please correct me if I am wrong. As per my understanding, a running thread exists in only one Activity at a time. In other words, it is not shared by activities. Hence only one context applies, even if the method is in some other class. However it is convoluted to access the context - it has to be passed into each constructor of each class. There have been several gripes about this in the newsgroup. Suggestion: have a getContext() call, that at runtime senses which is the applicable context for that thread, and returns it to that thread. And more than one thread being spawned off should still map to one activity context. So depending on the thread (Activity) in which the method executes, a different context could be returned. thanks, Anil --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
