[android-developers] Re: Drawing on MapView
Why do not you try the open source Maps application, I re-wrote it again to
help developers understand how the maps application works and extend it

Thanks you very much. I didn't ask you for the best solution but I said : ...which is/are best way(s) FOR YOU... I don't speak English very well so I definitely asked if best practice exist or which is your(s) solution(s). And you answered my question :). It's OK.

Everybody has their opinion as what is best. The fact that this is Android makes little difference -- there is little agreement *anywhere* as to what is best, except that SOAP is probably very far down the list of candidates. Some like REST over HTTP. Some like XML-RPC. Some like message queues, such as Amazon SQS or Apache ActiveMQ. Some like XMPP (a.k.a., Jabber). Some like Comet/Bayeux. Some like AtomPub as a specific REST variant. Some like SMTP/POP3 as a simplified message queue. Some people like binary protocols like Google's Protocol Buffers. I think two or three people still like SOAP. And I'm sure there are many others that I am just not thinking of right this moment. As to specifically which of these work best on Android, it is probably a little early to tell, particularly given the shifting sands of the SDK. Now that the SDK is far firmer, in a few months, you may start to see some recommended practices for what you're describing. And, you'll have some open source Android projects to examine to see how they are accomplishing it.

Hi, If anybody knows Mike Cleron's email address, I'd ask him directly, but I didn't find it anywhere on the blog: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2008/09/panoramio.html If some Google developer happens to know him, please forward this discussion post to him - thanks :-) I have the following question / suggestion: Radar introduces the new intent: http://www.openintents.org/en/node/46 Intent i = new Intent(com.google.android.radar.SHOW_RADAR); i.putExtra(latitude, 37.422f); i.putExtra(longitude, -122.084f); startActivity(i); Wouldn't it make more sense to use the geo: URI scheme here instead of using extras? http://www.openintents.org/en/node/62 http://code.google.com/android/reference/available-intents.html Then the same content URI could be either used with VIEW to show a map, or SHOW_RADAR to show the radar... (or even rename the action to VIEW_RADAR to allow for various VIEW modes on geo data...?) What do you think?

[android-developers] Re: WebView and contents://
Thankyou, I used the image content provider first which loaded a
question mark as a picture but proved unstable.
I finally found the function I was looking for in case anyone else has
the same problem, although I have to warn you it does the exact thing
Google was trying to prevent. (Gives the browser access to the file
system again which can have security implications.)
public android.os.ParcelFileDescriptor openFile(android.net.Uri
uri, java.lang.String mode) throws java.io.FileNotFoundException{
ParcelFileDescriptor parcel;
Log.v(TAG, file requested [+uri.toString()+]);
String root_uri = NotePad.CONTENT_URI.toString();
String root_folder = file:///data/data/
com.example.android.notepad/files;
String request_uri = uri.toString().substring(root_uri.length());
String request_file = root_folder.concat(request_uri);
Log.v(TAG, request_file);
URI uri2 = URI.create(request_file);
File file = new File(uri2);
Log.v(TAG, LENGTH +file.length());
parcel = ParcelFileDescriptor.open(file,
ParcelFileDescriptor.MODE_READ_ONLY);
return parcel;
}
I overlooked public ParcelFileDescriptor openFile while searching
before in the content provider api, and still couldn't find
tutorials.. but the above code should serve any files within the apps
files folder to the browser the rest of the code for the
contentProvider doesn't seem necessary when surving files which is a
little confusing.

[android-developers] Best practise for naming intent URIs (if not content provider)?
This is related to the post http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/d194cd83748be840# that was about intent extras. Going through the list of Intent URIs: http://www.openintents.org/en/uris it seems even less obvious how to name new URI schemes. content://com.google.provider.NotePad seems to work unambiguously if there is a Content Provider. But what if there is no content provider? URI schemes have been introduced in various ways: * http:, mailto:, geo: OK, these are standardized schemes. * tel: , voicemail: ok, it makes sense to introduce these on a phone. * content: Ok, accepted for content providers. but: * google.streetview: A new scheme - including a company name? * flickr: an inexistent scheme? How should developers proceed to create new protocols? e.g. for the Mandelbrot application ( http://code.google.com/p/mandelbrot/ ) it would make sense to introduce ACTION_VIEW + a new intent URI specifying the coordinate and zoom level, similar to the geo: URI. But what would that URI scheme be? * mandelbrot:x,y,zoom ? * fractal.mandelbrot:x,y,zoom ? * com.alfray.mandelbrot:x,y,zoom ? * content://com.alfray.mandelbrot:image?x=x,y=y,zoom=zoom ? It would make sense to use fully qualified names for schemes in order to avoid future conflict - but is this how it should be done?

This view is graphical in nature and only takes up the central part of the screen, and it is also transparent, so the previous contents of the screen are visible behind it and around it. 4. Some intensive computation takes place, that should take 0.1 - 1 seconds on a regular ARM 11 CPU. 5. Depending on the result of the computation one of two other views is shown. My issue: I don't want the view described at 3 to have any other graphical component of my application behind it. So i see two solutions: a. I implement a activity that shows the view at 3 as the first activity that appears when the application is launched. Problem: it will stay frozen for up to one second while the computation takes place. I don't want that because it makes the application feel unresponsive. Can i make the view invisible once it is done gathering data? b. I implement an invisible activity that launches another activity that implements the view at 3, and this second activity returns data to the first, that performs the computation and then launches other activities based on the result. In both cases i need to make a view invisible. I have tried various methods of doing that and none worked. Can anyone help? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

This sounds more like a dialog, progressdialog, or toast to me than an invisible activity.. http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/app/ProgressDialog.html You could launch the intense calculatoin in a background thread, and indicate through handlers when the calculation is done. Does this sound like a possible solution, or did you have something else in mind?

[android-developers] Re: Are invisible activities possible?
I guess there is one other thing i should specify. One of the two possible outcomes is to do nothing. And then if i launch a background thread (the activity that launched it is still visible) i would get a progress bar shown over the currently displayed view, and then it could just end, and everything would close (since one of the two possible outcomes is to do nothing). And that would look very bad to the end user. That is why i am looking for some way to hide all my views, but keep an activity alive. I know one option is to bind a service for this, but i felt that it would be overkill to bind a service that is turned on by an acitivty that subsequently closes, runs for some 1-2 seconds, and then spawns another activity. This solution feels like an over-complication.

[android-developers] Re: Are invisible activities possible?
I have to admit I have not fully understood what you want to do. Is it something like this: 1) Activity starts 2) Show ProgressDialog and start calculation in background thread. 3) When background thread finishes, close ProgressDialog. 4) Depending on the result of the thread, you now show another Dialog with the result. The progress bar could also be in the title bar, like it is done in Android's browser (there are also API demos for it). Or, do you want step 2) without showing the ProgressDialog, just starting the thread? Peli On 28 Sep., 17:56, radu weiss [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess there is one other thing i should specify.

[android-developers] Intercept key events across apps?
I use an app for my Palm Treo called KeyCaps. It allows you to configure two key actions for every app on the phone. The first is holding a key down. I have this set to capitalize the character. The second is pressing the key twice quickly, which changes the character entered to the Alt entry for that key. For example, using the screen shots of the G1 so far, if I held down the i key, then it would type in I instead. However, if I double- clicked on the i key, it would type in - instead. I'd really like to write this app for Android, but I haven't been able to figure out how so far. I know you can capture key events within your own application, but is there anyway to intercept key events in other applications in the current API?

[android-developers] Curious about com.android.fallback.Fallback
There is something like com.android.fallback.Fallback
If I click on google reader in the browser and select All items I get
a customized error message (Unsupported action) instead of an
ActivityNotFoundException or so.
This customized error message is trigger by the following intent:
Intent { action=android.intent.action.VIEW

Does anybody know anything about Fallback?
Could this be related to the feature reqeuest for a fallback intent

[android-developers] Re: netbeans + android = compile error
As far as I know the Netbeans plugin (which is not developed by
Google) has not been updated in a long time.
Since then there has been significant changes to the build process
(the error you're getting is a due to a change in the command line
options of aapt).
You would need an updated version to be able to use it.
If you really want to use Netbeans, the only solution, for now, is to
use the activityCreator tool to create an ant-based project and import
the ant script into NetBeans.

[android-developers] Re: Curious about com.android.fallback.Fallback
The Fallback application is an emulator-only application.
It contains an activity that accepts a lot of intents with a very low priority.
When an intent is fired and no other application accepts it, then the
Fallback activity receives it to display the not implemented
message.
Of course, this only works with intents defined by the platform. If
you send an intent that you created, you will get a crash.
We figured this would help differentiate errors and cases where a
default application is not bundled with the emulator.
For instance clicking Settings in the menu of the HOME application
will show this instead of crashing because it's just a matter of the
Settings app not being bundled with the emulator.

[android-developers] Re: Android on iPhone
I hope so..But if its not, will it not be a gud idea to develop a thin client which will enable iPhone users to actually run the Android on it. I mean the first and foremost thing is, iPhone does not support Java and Android is running on Java Technology, so an interface ( bi-lingual interpreter sort of thing ) will be required to think of it.

There is running Android on the iPhone operating system, and there is replacing the Android operating system with Android. Apple would not allow the former option, in all likelihood, even if it were possible, which I doubt. Apple might not have a say in the latter option, but you wind up with a phone that is supported by neither Apple nor your mobile carrier. That might be fine for a hobbyist. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Warescription: All titles, revisions, ebook formats, just $35/year --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

I only basics of iPhone programming and i am developing some apps for android too, so why not have both of them at same place ;-) Moreover, I am a final year student doing my undergrad in C.S.

[android-developers] Re: Decompile android.jar - RuntimeException(Stub!) - SDK 1.0
I can't really say I agree that unit tests should only be run on the target platform, although of course it does need to be tested on the platform. A lot of unit tests are pretty darn useful for catching bugs outside of a Dalvik environment. I often write Java code on one platform, say Windows, and then test it out on Linux, perfectly natural. Also, I like to run my debugger in my IDE but if I tie into in the most trivial of Android classes, I can't do that anymore, a run-time exception appears. Maybe since I'm not using Eclipse, the Android team's way of building doesn't seem as necessary or productive to me.

[android-developers] one line EditText
Hi, I'm struggling with the following. I have an EditText and a TextView in a LinearLayout, like this: LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android android:orientation=vertical android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=fill_parent EditText android:id=@+id/status android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:singleLine=true android:gravity=top android:paddingLeft=3dip android:paddingRight=3dip android:layout_weight=1/ TextView android:id=@+id/timeline android:layout_width=fill_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content android:layout_weight=1 android:gravity=top android:paddingLeft=3dip android:paddingRight=3dip android:scrollbars=vertical / /LinearLayout I want the EditExt to be one line, the TextView to fill up the rest of the screen. Ideally, the EditText would still grow with the number of lines the user types. I've tried android:height, android:maxHeight, android:singleLine, but nothing seems to work.

[android-developers] Re: one line EditText
You are using android:layout_weight = 1 for both TextView and EditText, which makes them occupy the screen space equally. Instead you should use something like 0.1 for the EditText and 0.9 for TextView. You should also set android:multiline=true for EditText, otherwise everything that the user types will remain in just one line. Your parent LinearLayout's layout_height is fill_parent which will still make the EditText stretch a bit if you want it to be strictly just one line then you could: 1) set the EditText's android:layout_height to 1dip, instead of wrap_content, but then it wont expand when the user types more than 1 line 2) set the parent LinearLayout's layout_height to wrap_content But again that wouldn't look too good, your UI will look a bit squished...its good to leave some padding. 2008/9/28 Christine [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I'm struggling with the following.

[android-developers] Activity Lifecycle Question
I have an activity which is started by the intent set by my app in the status bar. My activity uses the singleTop launchMode. I go through the following sequence of events: 1) My activity is initially not visible. 2) I get a notification in the status bar. I click on the new notification which starts my activity. 3) While my activity is still visible I get a new notification in the status bar. I click on the new notification again. My question is the following: What method should I override to learn that my activity is being started when the user clicks on the notification the second time?

[android-developers] Re: switch between activities
Activity.startSubActivity() was just renamed to
startActivityForResult(), to make it clear that calling that function
doesn't set up some special kind of parent/child relationship (except
for where the result will go).
It sounds like you are really working against the activity model. Why
not just create a second window (with the Dialog class) inside of your
parent activity, instead of trying to express everything as
activities? If the activity model doesn't work for you for a
particular UI flow, you don't need to use it.
At any rate, the app state transitions are all described in the
Activity doc, in fair detail. I would strongly urge reading,
understanding, and working within that model if you are using
activities, rather than trying to play sneaky games.

On Sep 28, 4:49 pm, Joa [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Activity.startSubActivity() would have been the way to go, but has
been removed with SDK 0.9. Here is how I worked around this problem:
Unfortunately, any start of an activity (i.e. using
Activity.startActivity(), Activity.startActivityForResult()) from
within a parent activity calls the parent's onStop() method. This
means the end of the parent activity, unless Activity.onStop() is
not overridden to catch that call.
Sp every time before I call Activity.startActivity() in the parent
activity, I set a flag menuItemSelected. which the overridden onStop()
evaluates to circumvent the termination of the parent activity. I
have no visibility how the app state transitions play together with
the various state change functions, but the following resulted in the
desired behavior (i.e. keeps the parent activity alive):
--- snip --
@Override
protected void onStop() {
super.onStop();
if (!menuItemSelected) {
this.finish();
}
menuItemSelected = false;
}
--- snip --
I am not sure if this is the right way to do it, but could not
identify another solution.
Hope this helps, JP

I have a parent activity that starts a sub activity. From the sub
activity, i want to be able to go back to the parent activity without
terminating the child activity. Both activities will have UI so i
don't think service will work here.
So basically, is there a way for me to put the child activity to the
background by calling the parent activity and then from the parent
activity to get the child activity back without creating a new
instance of the sub activity (do i just callstartSubActivity(new
instance())?

I have made three servlets on intermediate server side Login, Album and Photos. Login for Authentication, Albums for add,delete,update albums and Photos for add, delete photos. Now once i send username-password from mobile client to intermediate server that time it first calls login servlet and set service object and username in session if authentication is successful and sending appropriate msg to client. Now client will again send album list entries on Album servlet page. Now problem comes hereI want to use username and that service object those i have set earlier in session at login time. But scope of the session remains in for that particular web application only (If i m not wrong). Once response send back to client session will be break or not? if i m sending a new request - say for retrieving album entries that time will i be able to use that session that i have earlies set?
